4 The HSPD-12 Mandate Home Security Presidential Directive 12 (HSPD-12): “Policy for a Common Identification Standard for Federal Employees and Contractors” -- Signed by President: August 27, 2004 HSPD-12 has Four Control Objectives: Issue Identification based on sound criteria to verify an individual’s identity. Strongly resistant to fraud, tampering, counterfeiting, and terrorist exploitation. Personal Identity can be rapidly authenticated electronically. Issued by providers who’s reliability has been established by an official accreditation process.
5 Key Milestones October 27, 2005 Milestone Date Agency/Department Requirement/Milestone August 27, 2004 HSPD-12 signed and issued Not later than 6 months (February 27, 2005) NIST Issue standard (FIPS-201) Not later than 8 months following issuance of standard (October 27, 2005) Compliance with FIPS-201 PIV I: Identity Proofing and Enrollment. Not later than 20 months following issuance of standard (October 27, 2006) October 27, 2006Commence deployment of FIPS-201 compliant Identity Credentials (FIPS-201 Part Two). PIV-II Convert all employees to PIV standard (October 27, 2008) Compliance with FIPS-201 Part II for all employees and contractors.

7 Government-wide Implementation Strategy OMB provides policy and implementation guidance. NIST provides HSPD-12 process and technical requirements (FIPS 201 and associated Special Publications). GSA (OGP and FAS) provides government-wide implementation and acquisition assistance, coordinates agency implementation through the Federal Identity Credentialing Committee, develops and tests interface specifications for interoperability, and serves as “Executive Agent for Acquisition” for approval of products and services for the implementation of HSPD-12. Interoperability of HSPD-12 systems across government is required. Agency implementation is controlled through Approved Product List, acquisition controls, and Standard Interface Specifications. GSA is designated to provide shared services and infrastructure for government-wide implementation (MSO). Extremely aggressive milestones are needed to maintain focus and momentum.
8 Multiple PIV Authentication Technologies To provide multiple authentication assurance levels, FIPS 201 requires multiple authentication technologies: Authentication using PIV Visual Credentials – Facial Image Authentication using the Cardholder Unique Identifier (CHUID) – contact or contact-less Authentication using PIN Authentication using Biometric (match on/off card) – fingerprint template Authentication using PIV asymmetric Cryptography (PKI) – authentication digital certificate Something I have – PIV Card Something I know - PIN Something I am - Biometric
9 GSA’s Role – Executive Agent for Acquisition Establish FIPS 201 Evaluation Program to ensure that commercial products comply with all normative requirements of FIPS 201. Establish Approved Products List to publicly post all approved products/services requiring FIPS 201 compliance. Establish Integration Services Qualification Program for vendors to be qualified to provide integrated, bundled solutions and contractor managed solutions. Establish Special Item Number (SIN) on GSA MAS IT 70 for FIPS 201 compliant products and qualified services. Provide full-range of qualified products and services to meet Agency implementation needs, including integration services. Test agency-specific implementations for compliance.
10 Status of HSPD-12 Interface Specifications Interface Specifications are needed for interoperability in order to successfully exchange data between HSPD-12 systems and systems components OGP established the inter-agency HSPD-12 Architecture Working Group in FY 2006 to develop Interface Specifications for government-wide use. 10 Interface Specification Documents have been developed and issued in final All Interface Specifications are posted at GSA MSO is developing and currently testing Reference Implementation for the Agency – SIP (Systems Infrastructure Provider) Interface Specification. The MSO Reference Implementation will be the standard for all MSO agencies to interface to EDS. Two new Interface Specifications are currently under development for MSO and government-wide use SIP – OPM (Office of Personnel Management) for all fingerprint data transmissions to OPM and FBI Back-end authentication for physical and logical access control (numerous use cases and Interface Specifications needed)
11 Key Architecture Design Considerations Different authentication assurance levels are needed for different types of transactions. Architecture must support multiple authentication technologies – PIN, biometric template, CHUID, authentication keys. Architecture must support multiple protocols. Federal Government will not mandate a single proprietary solution, therefore, Architecture must support multiple COTS products. All architecture components must interoperate with ALL other components (see – requires product testing. Interface specifications are necessary for inter-system data exchange. Controls must protect privacy of personal information.
12 Why Shared Services for E-Authentication, Federal Bridge CA and HSPD-12 Implementation? Efficiencies – Eliminate need for redundant infrastructure. Enhance Interoperability – Much easier to ensure interoperability across a limited number of systems (GSA & DOI bring 75+ customer agencies to common, shared solution). Accelerate implementation timeframes. Reduce cost/implementation for HSPD-12 system interfaces. Aggregate Federal acquisitions to maximize potential for volume buys. Organize Federal marketplace for all of the above.
13 Status of GSA FIPS 201 Evaluation Program OGP administers the FIPS-201 Evaluation Program to determine conformance to FIPS-201 normative requirements. Certified laboratories perform all FIPS 201 compliance evaluations OGP approves all evaluations and posts to Approved Product List Approved Product List posted at GSA/NIST identified 22 categories of products/services which must comply with specific normative requirements contained in FIPS 201 e.g., PIV smart cards, smart card readers, fingerprint scanners, fingerprint capture stations, facial image capture stations, card printing stations, etc. Current product and services approvals: 300+ products on FIPS 201 Approved Product List Current certified labs: Atlan Laboratories, InfoGard Laboratories Several more lab certifications in progress

15 Where are we today? 12+ agencies committed to their own infrastructure: DHS, DoD, NASA, SSA, EPA, FTC, Dept. of State, VA, HHS, ED, DOL, NSF, 100+ Agencies want to share infrastructure All small agencies DOC, HUD, USDA, DOJ, DOI, GSA, DOE, DOT, Treasury, OPM, Federal Reserve, USPS, NARA, FCC committed Shared Service Providers DoD/DMDC – for branches of military Dept. of State -- 8 agencies serviced by State Dept. GSA for government-wide services – 70+ agencies GSA Roll-out Shared Service pricing released 6/8/07 -- $49/seat for enrollment, $36/year for maintenance GSA implemented enrollment station roll-out for national deployment starting in Washington DC in August Goal is to deploy 225 shared enrollment stations nationwide and enroll all MSO customers (700,000 +) by October 2008.
16 GSA HSPD-12 Shared Services Interfaces Fourth, after agency adjudication the PSP accepts cardholder information from the SIP needed to print the card. When card printing is completed card data is returned to the SIP, including which chip ID was used for this applicant. The card is then locked with a transport key and shipped to the designated FSP. Second, the ESP retrieves applicant data from the SIP, enrolls the applicant, and sends enrollment data back to the SIP. Fifth, the FSP matches the applicant biometric, and then uses the SIP CMS to unlock the card, load the signed objects, and finalize the configuration. The card leaves the FSP ready to use. This step is often referred to as issuance because it is the last step in issuance process. Sixth, the certificate could be requested and loaded at the FSP, if desired. First, the issuing agency provides affiliation (sponsorship) feeds, adjudication results, and revocation requests to the SIP. The SIP provides reports back to the agency. Third, the SIP sends fingerprint data collected from the ESP to OPM for suitability checks, and results are sent to the agency. Scope of shared services are HSPD-12 system components inside the red border. These are core HSPD-12 services to meet PIV 1 & 2 compliance
