IA-08 Identification and Authentication (Non-organizational Users)

Control

Uniquely identify and authenticate non-organizational users or processes acting on behalf of non-organizational users.

Discussion

Non-organizational users include system users other than organizational users explicitly covered by [IA-2](#ia-2) . Non-organizational users are uniquely identified and authenticated for accesses other than those explicitly identified and documented in [AC-14](#ac-14) . Identification and authentication of non-organizational users accessing federal systems may be required to protect federal, proprietary, or privacy-related information (with exceptions noted for national security systems). Organizations consider many factors—including security, privacy, scalability, and practicality—when balancing the need to ensure ease of use for access to federal information and systems with the need to protect and adequately mitigate risk.

Assessment Objective

non-organizational users or processes acting on behalf of non-organizational users are uniquely identified and authenticated.

Assessment Method

Examine

Identification and authentication policy system security plan privacy plan procedures addressing user identification and authentication system design documentation system configuration settings and associated documentation system audit records list of system accounts other relevant documents or records

IA-08(01) Acceptance of PIV Credentials from Other Agencies

Control

Accept and electronically verify Personal Identity Verification-compliant credentials from other federal agencies.

Discussion

Acceptance of Personal Identity Verification (PIV) credentials from other federal agencies applies to both logical and physical access control systems. PIV credentials are those credentials issued by federal agencies that conform to FIPS Publication 201 and supporting guidelines. The adequacy and reliability of PIV card issuers are addressed and authorized using [SP 800-79-2](#10963761-58fc-4b20-b3d6-b44a54daba03).

Assessment Objective

  1. Personal Identity Verification-compliant credentials from other federal agencies are accepted;
  2. Personal Identity Verification-compliant credentials from other federal agencies are electronically verified.

Assessment Method

Examine

Identification and authentication policy system security plan procedures addressing user identification and authentication system design documentation system configuration settings and associated documentation system audit records PIV verification records evidence of PIV credentials PIV credential authorizations other relevant documents or records

IA-08(02) Acceptance of External Authenticators

Control

  1. Accept only external authenticators that are NIST-compliant; and
  2. Document and maintain a list of accepted external authenticators.

Discussion

Acceptance of only NIST-compliant external authenticators applies to organizational systems that are accessible to the public (e.g., public-facing websites). External authenticators are issued by nonfederal government entities and are compliant with [SP 800-63B](#e59c5a7c-8b1f-49ca-8de0-6ee0882180ce) . Approved external authenticators meet or exceed the minimum Federal Government-wide technical, security, privacy, and organizational maturity requirements. Meeting or exceeding Federal requirements allows Federal Government relying parties to trust external authenticators in connection with an authentication transaction at a specified authenticator assurance level.

Assessment Objective

  1. only external authenticators that are NIST-compliant are accepted;
    1. a list of accepted external authenticators is documented;
    2. a list of accepted external authenticators is maintained.

Assessment Method

Examine

Identification and authentication policy system security plan procedures addressing user identification and authentication system design documentation system configuration settings and associated documentation system audit records list of third-party credentialing products, components, or services procured and implemented by organization third-party credential verification records evidence of third-party credentials third-party credential authorizations other relevant documents or records

IA-08(04) Use of Defined Profiles

Control

Conform to the following profiles for identity management [Assignement: identity management profiles].

Discussion

Organizations define profiles for identity management based on open identity management standards. To ensure that open identity management standards are viable, robust, reliable, sustainable, and interoperable as documented, the Federal Government assesses and scopes the standards and technology implementations against applicable laws, executive orders, directives, policies, regulations, standards, and guidelines.

Assessment Objective

there is conformance with [Assignement: identity management profiles] for identity management.

Assessment Method

Examine

IA-08(05) Acceptance of PIV-I Credentials

Control

Accept and verify federated or PKI credentials that meet [Assignement: policy].

Discussion

Acceptance of PIV-I credentials can be implemented by PIV, PIV-I, and other commercial or external identity providers. The acceptance and verification of PIV-I-compliant credentials apply to both logical and physical access control systems. The acceptance and verification of PIV-I credentials address nonfederal issuers of identity cards that desire to interoperate with United States Government PIV systems and that can be trusted by Federal Government-relying parties. The X.509 certificate policy for the Federal Bridge Certification Authority (FBCA) addresses PIV-I requirements. The PIV-I card is commensurate with the PIV credentials as defined in cited references. PIV-I credentials are the credentials issued by a PIV-I provider whose PIV-I certificate policy maps to the Federal Bridge PIV-I Certificate Policy. A PIV-I provider is cross-certified with the FBCA (directly or through another PKI bridge) with policies that have been mapped and approved as meeting the requirements of the PIV-I policies defined in the FBCA certificate policy.

Assessment Objective

  1. federated or PKI credentials that meet [Assignement: policy] are accepted;
  2. federated or PKI credentials that meet [Assignement: policy] are verified.

Assessment Method

IA-08(06) Disassociability

Control

Implement the following measures to disassociate user attributes or identifier assertion relationships among individuals, credential service providers, and relying parties: [Assignement: measures].

Discussion

Federated identity solutions can create increased privacy risks due to the tracking and profiling of individuals. Using identifier mapping tables or cryptographic techniques to blind credential service providers and relying parties from each other or to make identity attributes less visible to transmitting parties can reduce these privacy risks.

Assessment Objective

[Assignement: measures] to disassociate user attributes or identifier assertion relationships among individuals, credential service providers, and relying parties are implemented.

Assessment Method

Examine
