Roadmap: FIPS 201 Personal Identity Verification (PIV)
FIPS 201 Revision 3
FIPS 201, Personal Identity Verification (PIV) for federal employees and contractors is currently going through a third revision. The goal of the revision is 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. Changes to FIPS 201 include expanding the set of PIV authenticators beyond the current set and beyond the smart card form factor. FIPS 201 addresses interagency use of these new type of PIV authenticators (i.e., Derived PIV Credentials) via federation. The revision also aims to facilitate issuance of PIV Card by enabling remote identity proofing. These changes closely align with OMB M-19-17. Milestone activities include:
