Title

Example Binding of PACS Credential

Control

To enable a derived PIV credential to be used for physical access as described in Appendix D , the applicant first authenticates using their PIV Card and the PKI-AUTH authentication method. Having authenticated the employee, the server verifies PIV credential eligibility in the applicant’s PIV identity account. The issuer generates a new CHUID data object, derived card authentication key, and derived card authentication certificate. If the SM-AUTH authentication method is supported, a key pair is generated. The issuer creates a corresponding derived card verifiable certificate and secure messaging certificate signer object. The issuer transfers the created objects to the derived PIV credential module using a TLS or similar authenticated protected channel. Because the PACS credential is a single authentication factor, it is not necessary to establish an activation factor.

The PIV Card issuer enters information about the new derived PIV credential into the subscriber’s PIV identity account. The cardholder is notified of the binding of the new derived PIV credential.
