Homeland Security Presidential Directive (HSPD-12) Initiative

Abstract

Homeland Security Presidential Directive (HSPD-12) Initiative: HSPD-12 and the Federal Information Processing Standard (FIPS) Special Publication 201 require Federal Agencies to issue a Personal Identification Verification (PIV) card to enable rapid electronic authentication for all Government employees, uniformed service members, and contractors. Real-time Automated Personnel Identification System (RAPIDS) is the DoD enterprise capability that issues the Common Access Card (CAC) (DoD’s implementation of the PIV card) and enables updates to DEERS, thus providing an enterprise-wide credential for both physical and logical access to DoD facilities and networks.
