Bell ID gets FIPS201 Approval

Thursday, April 17, 2008

Bell ID’s ANDiS4FIPS201 Card & Application Management solution has been placed on the GSA Approved Products List in recognition of its compliance with the FIPS 201: Electronic Personalization standard.

ANDiS4FIPS201 has been tested and approved as an electronic card personalization product which generates and loads mandatory and optional objects to a PIV Card, as defined by the National Institute of Standards and Technology.

Bell ID’s ANDiS4FIPS201 offers U.S. government agencies a card and application management system enabling them to manage the life cycle of the card and the PIV application it holds. The ten different containers on the card are managed individually by ANDiS, enabling items with different lifecycles to be held on the same card. In addition, ANDiS4FIPS201 supports open source interfacing, which allows for swift and seamless integration with other components of the PIV card-issuing infrastructure. [end]
