Security and Compliance
Unifyia is committed to delivering secure, compliant solutions tailored to meet the needs of U.S. government agencies and enterprises. Our platform safeguards the entire identity lifecycle—from credential issuance to management and authentication—by integrating comprehensive Identity Assurance measures. Unifyia ensures that organizations stay protected against evolving threats while maintaining compliance with federal security standards and best practices.
Unifyia Platform’s Compliance with FIPS Standards
Unifyia ensures top-tier cryptographic security by leveraging FIPS 140-2 and FIPS 140-3 Level 2/3 validated hardware. This includes Hardware Security Modules (HSMs), smart cards, and security keys like YubiKeys. These standards, established by NIST, ensure that cryptographic modules used within the platform meet rigorous requirements for data protection and tamper resistance. Organizations using Unifyia can confidently deploy passwordless MFA and credential management solutions while staying compliant with the latest federal and industry security mandates.
Digital Identity Guidelines
(NIST SP 800-63-4)
Unifyia’s Adherence to NIST SP 800-63-4
Unifyia aligns with the NIST Digital Identity Guidelines (SP 800-63-4) to ensure secure and compliant management of enrollment, credential lifecycle, and authentication processes. These guidelines provide a framework for identity proofing, multi-factor authentication (MFA), and credential issuance. By following NIST standards, Unifyia helps organizations achieve secure digital identity management with strong assurance levels, meeting regulatory requirements and supporting zero trust architecture.
Interfaces for PIV
(NIST SP 800-73-5)
Unifyia’s Compliance with NIST SP 800-73-5
Unifyia adheres to NIST SP 800-73-5, which defines the technical standards for Personal Identity Verification (PIV) card interfaces. This ensures seamless interoperability with government systems, enabling secure issuance, management, and authentication of PIV credentials.
Derived PIV Credentials
(NIST SP 800-153-Rev-1)
Unifyia’s Support for NIST Derived PIV Credentials (SP 800-157 Rev 1)
Unifyia complies with NIST SP 800-157 Rev 1, enabling the issuance and management of Derived PIV Credentials for mobile devices. This ensures that users can securely authenticate without needing physical PIV cards, supporting MFA and passwordless authentication on smartphones, tablets, and other devices. By following these guidelines, Unifyia helps organizations extend secure access to remote users while maintaining the same cryptographic strength as traditional PIV cards.
NIST FIPS 201-3
PIV for Federal Employees and Contractors
Unifyia’s Support for NIST FIPS 201-3 PIV Compliance
Unifyia fully supports FIPS 201-3, the latest standard for Personal Identity Verification (PIV) credentials, ensuring secure access for federal employees and contractors. This includes the issuance, management, and lifecycle of PIV cards, along with authentication across smart cards, YubiKeys, and mobile ID wallets. Unifyia helps federal agencies comply with these stringent guidelines by enabling passwordless MFA, secure credential management, and seamless integration with government systems for both physical and logical access.
FIDO2.1 Certified Server and Authenticators for Passkeys
Unifyia Platform is FIDO2.1 Certified and Leverages Certified Authenticators for Passkeys
Unifyia is a FIDO2.1 certified platform, supporting both server and authenticator roles to enable passkey-based authentication. This certification ensures compliance with the latest FIDO Alliance standards for passwordless, phishing-resistant authentication. With Unifyia, organizations can deploy passkeys on security keys (e.g., YubiKeys), smart cards, and mobile wallets, providing seamless access across devices and platforms. The FIDO2.1 framework enhances security by binding credentials to user devices, ensuring a password-free experience that meets modern zero trust requirements.
mPIV Mobile ID
Based on ISO 18013-5 mDoc
Future of Credentials: Mobile, Decentralized, and Cloud
Unifyia embraces the shift toward mobile, decentralized, and cloud-based credentials by developing the first mPIV Mobile ID based on the ISO 18013-5 mDoc standard. This innovative solution enables secure, mobile-first identity verification while ensuring interoperability across systems. With mPIV, users can store and manage their PIV credentials directly on smartphones and mobile wallets, offering the same level of security as traditional smart cards but with greater convenience and flexibility. Unifyia’s platform is designed to support the evolving needs of federal agencies and organizations, aligning with the future of mobile identity and zero trust architecture.
