About PIV: Federal Information Processing Standard 201 (FIPS 201) defines the content of a Personal Identity Verification (PIV) smart card. Initially used to authenticate US federal government employees, the standard has been expanded to cover usage for PIV-Interoperable (PIV-I) and Commercial Identity Verification (CIV) purposes. PIV cards have both contact and contactless interfaces, which may be used for identification and access control to facilities and services.
