Physical Access Control Systems (PACS) Implementation of HSPD-12
Monitor Dynamics was one of the first Physical Access Control System manufacturers to implement HSPD-12 directives. Over the past several years, SAFEnet software has met the basic compliance goals of FIPS 201. Monitor Dynamics PACS technology can be used as a solution for Federal Government agencies as defined by SP800-116 special publication published by the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST).
All Monitor Dynamics software and hardware used for HSPD-12 implementation is approved by GSA.
- The SAFEnet system uses the GSA approved SCM Microsystems SCR331 USB Smartcard as the Transparent
- Reader for reading all relevant data from a PIV II Card.
- The SAFEnet system can read PIV Cards from multiple card vendors for clients such as GSA, TSA etc.
- Monitor Dynamics supports most of the GSA approved readers such as:
- RP40, RK40 manufactured by HID
- PAT1312 & PAT1322 Physical Access Readers by SCM Microsystems
- PIV-Station CHUID readers (Contact and Contactless) by BioScrypt
- Others
The SAFEnet system supports various PIV cards manufactured by GSA approved manufacturers such as Gemalto & Oberthur.
The SAFEnet system normally reads 75 bits of data and then uses 48 bits of unique credentials for making access decisions. SAFEnet can also read 200 bits of FASC-N data with a firmware change as and when needed.
This is to ensure that Monitor Dynamics has technical compliance in reading data from card to database allowing for longer and more complex card formats in the future - including 200 bits.
SAFEnet currently reads all pertinent data including the expiration date and creates cardholder records on the fly. This includes but is not limited to - reading the facial image and fingerprints which are then subsequently stored in the database.
Monitor Dynamics completely supports the data model and the authentication methodology as specified in NIST Special Publication 800-73-2 for interfacing with End Point PIV Cards.
Monitor Dynamics is integrating an OCSP server which will provide the validation of a certificate on a real time basis. This solution will allow these certificates to be cross checked with the "TSA hotlist" as published by the Transportation Security Administration on a regular basis.
Monitor Dynamics is creating a Validation Authority for providing status response to their Physical Access Control System. The Validation Authority will provide a comprehensive scalable and reliable solution for real time digital certificate validation at the time of enrollment.
Additionally, it will also provide a means by which the revoked certificate holders' access privileges will be revoked from the physical access control system instantaneously. |
