Government Approved Services and Products
HSPD-12 requires that federal identity management and credentialing systems
be interoperable; this is the first time that interoperability across all departments
and agencies has been mandated. To ensure interoperability, products and services
will be evaluated and approved for HSPD-12 implementation.
The National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) established the NIST
Personal Identity Verification Program (NPIVP) to validate Personal Identity
Verification (PIV) smartcard and middleware components.
GSA established the FIPS 201 Evaluation Program to complete the performance
and interoperability testing process. There is no cut off date for enrollment
and vendors may apply at any time to get their service or product approved.
GSA publishes an Approved Products List for products and services that have
completed NIST validation and GSA testing, as required.
