WHITE PAPER
Modern hardware-backed MFA and compliance for Federal Government
How the YubiKey meets US Federal Government regulations
Government agencies rely on PIV/CAC smart card standards but there are edge cases where PIV and CAC are not suitable. OMB Memo 19-17 and OMB Memo 20-19 laid the groundwork for alternate strong authentication, and Biden’s May 12, 2021 Executive Order 14028 mandated MFA within 180 days. Additionally, NIST provided guidance on using strong MFA solutions that provide verifier impersonation resistance capabilities.
