The Federal Trade Commission (FTC) has selected AMAG Technology and its Symmetry Homeland Access Control System to secure its headquarters building, Office of the Executive Director. Symmetry helps the FTC meet HSPD-12, which calls for a mandatory, government-wide standard for secure and reliable forms of identification issued by the federal government, and the Federal Information Processing Standard Publication 201 (FIPS 201), which specifies PIV requirements for Federal employees and contractors. The FTC plans to install the Symmetry Access Control system in all 13 offices throughout Washington D.C. and surrounding area.
Monitor Dynamics and Carillon Information Security announced the availability of a fully FIPS-201 compliant PACS solution, using SCVP for PIV, CAC, PIV-I and CIV credential validation.
