Explanation

Registration Task 2 is the step where the system is formally entered into the C&A (Certification & Accreditation) process, and notifications are sent to the DAA (Designated Approving Authority), Certifier, and User Representative to inform them that C&A support is required - making it the trigger point for stakeholder involvement.

Registration Task 1 initiates and plans the IA C&A process but focuses on internal planning by the Program/System Manager, not on notifying external stakeholders. Registration Task 3 is concerned with assigning IA controls to the system, which comes after stakeholders have already been brought in. Registration Task 4 focuses on assembling the DIACAP team, which is a downstream action that follows the notifications sent in Task 2.

Memory tip: Think of Task 2 as "2 = Tell the Crew" - it's the second step where you notify the key players (DAA, Certifier, User Rep) that their support is needed, before the real work of assigning controls and building the team begins.
