Roadmap: FIPS 201 Personal Identity Verification (PIV)
Beyond FIPS 201 Revision 3 – Updating PIV associated Guidelines
FIPS 201, Personal Identity Verification (PIV) for federal employees and contractors recently completed its third revision. The goal of the revision was to
1) incorporate federal department and agencies’ new or changing business requirements,
2) adapt to changes in the environment/technology, and
3) align with OMB’s M-19-17.
With these revision goals in mind, FIPS 201 Revision 3 now expands the set of PIV authenticators beyond the current set and beyond the smart card form factor. The Standard addresses interagency use of the additional authenticators (i.e., Derived PIV Credentials) via federation. The revision also aims to facilitate issuance of PIV Cards by enabling remote identity proofing. These changes and others will be further detailed in PIV-associated Special Publications (SPs), where needed.
