Derived Personal Identity Verification (PIV) Credentials (DPC) Proof of Concept: NISTIR 8055

by National Institute of Standards and Technology

NISTIR 8055 January 2016 This report documents proof of concept research for Derived Personal Identity Verification (PIV) Credentials. Smart card-based PIV Cards cannot be readily used with most mobile devices, such as smartphones and tablets, but Derived PIV Credentials (DPCs) can be used instead to PIV-enable these devices and provide multi-factor authentication for mobile device users. This report captures existing requirements related to DPCs, proposes an architecture that supports these requirements, and then demonstrates how such an architecture could be implemented and operated. Why buy an eBook when you can download a PDF for free? First you gotta find it and make sure it’s the latest version, not always easy. It’s much more cost-effective to just order the latest version from Amazon.com Unlike a PDF, this eBook allows easy page navigation because we bookmarked the Chapters and Appendices. (Don’t judge based on the free sample because that functionality is not activated on the free sample.) Once you buy a copy you will see how easy it is to get to the information you seek - fast.
