Abstract

This document specifies the test plan, processes, derived test requirements, and detailed test assertions for testing the following: (a)PIV middleware (client application API conformance) (b)PIV on-card application (for conformance to card application card command interface) (c)PIV Data objects representation (d)PIV Authentication Use Cases The test requirements are based on the specifications in NIST Special Publication 800-73, Interfaces for Personal Identity Verification.

Abstract

SP 800-78-1 has been modified to enhance interoperability, simplify the development of relying party applications, and enhance alignment with the National Security Agency's Suite B Cryptography [SUITE B]. Revision 1 reduces the set of elliptic curves approved for use with PIV cards and the supporting infrastructure from six curves to two. Also, SHA-384 has been added for use with Curve P-384 in this revision. And finally, this revision eliminates the largest size of RSA keys (3072 bits) on PIV cards. These changes simplify applications that require maximum interoperability: the number of OIDs that must be recognized (e.g., in certificates) has been significantly reduced; and elliptic curve implementations of elliptic curve cryptography can be optimized for operations over two specific curves.
