Description

Secure, compliant authentication for federal agencies
  • Nearly all federal and governmental agencies, both civilian and defense, trust RSA to secure the most secure. Whether ensuring compliance, protecting classified information, or securing federal networks, RSA ID Plus for Government is your go-to solution for robust, compliant authentication. By integrating the RSA iShield Key 2 series, powered by Swissbit, RSA ID Plus for Government provides U.S. federal agencies, contractors, and systems integrators with yet another method of secure authentication. The RSA iShield Key 2 series is designed to meet the highest security standards required. Employing aFIPS 140-3 level 3 certified cryptographic module (certificate 4679) and FIDO2certified, the RSA iShield Key 2 series ensures that government systems are protected and compliant with White House Executive Order (EO) 14028, OMB M-22-09, and OMB M-24-14, which require federal agencies to secure cloud services, develop and implement Zero Trust architecture (ZTA), and deploy multi-factor authentication(MFA). Together, the iShield Key 2 FIPS series and the RSA ID Plus platform support these efforts, delivering robust security compliance by default with solutions that are secure by design.
FIDO2 and multi-protocol support for government
  • The iShield Key 2 series offers secure, passwordless authentication that meets NIST 2.0 guidelines. The solution supports FIDO2, OATH HOTP, and PIV smart cards for versatile and resilient authentication, and ensures that federal agencies can rely on RSA for secure access in various use cases, from remote work to classified environments

ed environments:
