Title
Ubuntu 22.04 LTS must accept personal identity verification (PIV) credentials.
Control
Verify the "opensc-pcks11" package is installed on the system by using the following command: $ dpkg -l | grep opensc-pkcs11 ii opensc-pkcs11:amd64 0.22.0-1Ubuntu2 amd64 Smart card utilities with support for PKCS#15 compatible cards If the "opensc-pcks11" package is not installed, this is a finding.
Discussion
The use of PIV credentials facilitates standardization and reduces the risk of unauthorized access. DoW has mandated the use of the common access card (CAC) to support identity management and personal authentication for systems covered under Homeland Security Presidential Directive (HSPD) 12, as well as making the CAC a primary component of layered protection for national security systems.
