Which of the following examples of the Incorporation Information is correct?

Country: Switzerland State: City: Incorporating Agency: Handelsregisteramt des Kantons Bern Registration Number 0115
Country: USA State: Delaware City: Incorporating Agency: Department of State: Division of Corporations Registration Number DOC:20090418
Country: USA State: New York City: Incorporating Agency: Department of State: Division of Corporations Registration Number DOC:20090418
Country: USA State: Utah City: Salt Lake City Incorporating Agency: Department of Commerce Division of Corporations Registration Number: 5299537-0142

Correct Answer

A. Country: USA State: New York City: Incorporating Agency: Department of State: Division of Corporations Registration Number DOC:20090418

Explanation

The state and city should only be specified if the incorporating agency is specifically over that area (e.g. if a country keeps the records about all companies (Finland), you will only enter the country name. If a company is registered with a particular state (New York) in a country, the state should be entered. The city is rarely entered.)

You can only enter "DOC:20090418" as the registration number if no registration number is issued by the incorporating agency. Delaware does issue registration numbers so that can't be entered. New York does not issue registration numbers so that must be entered.

A special CSR is required in order to create an EV certificate.

True
False

Correct Answer

A. False

Explanation

A special CSR is not required in order to create an EV certificate. EV certificates, also known as Extended Validation certificates, require a specific validation process that involves verifying the legal identity and physical existence of the entity applying for the certificate. However, the process of creating a CSR (Certificate Signing Request) is the same for all types of certificates, including EV certificates. The CSR contains the public key and other information that is used to generate the certificate. Therefore, the statement that a special CSR is required for creating an EV certificate is false.

The DCV can be used to verify the signature on a DAL.

True
False

Correct Answer

A. False

Explanation

The DCV (Data Communication Verification) is not used to verify the signature on a DAL (Data Access Layer). The DCV is a method used to verify the integrity and authenticity of data during transmission, while the DAL is a software component that provides access to a database. These two concepts are unrelated, so the statement is false.
