CAK + BIO(-A) Authentication
Control changed
Before · SP 800-116
As discussed in Section 7.1.6 and 7.1.7, BIO(-A) by itself does not provide three-factor authentication. However, when BIO(-A) and CAK authentication mechanisms are performed at the same time, the verification of the PIN can be trusted because the PIV Card is authenticated by CAK. CAK + BIO(-A) is listed in Table 7-1 because the combined authentication mechanism is judged to achieve three-factor authentication (which would not be predicted by the sum of the HKA vectors of CAK + BIO(-A)). 9
