NATIONAL CYBERSECURITY CENTER OF EXCELLENCE
The National Cybersecurity Center of Excellence (NCCoE), a part of the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST), is a collaborative hub where industry organizations, government agencies, and academic institutions work together to address businesses’ most pressing cybersecurity issues. This public-private partnership enables the creation of practical cybersecurity solutions for specific industries, as well as for broad, cross-sector technology challenges. Through consortia under Cooperative Research and Development Agreements (CRADAs), including technology partners—from Fortune 50 market leaders to smaller companies specializing in information technology security—the NCCoE applies standards and best practices to develop modular, easily adaptable example cybersecurity solutions using commercially available technology. The NCCoE documents these example solutions in the NIST Special Publication 1800 series, which maps capabilities to the NIST Cybersecurity Framework and details the steps needed for another entity to re-create the example solution. The NCCoE was established in 2012 by NIST in partnership with the State of Maryland and Montgomery County, Maryland.

NIST CYBERSECURITY PRACTICE GUIDES
NIST Cybersecurity Practice Guides (Special Publication 1800 series) target specific cybersecurity challenges in the public and private sectors. They are practical, user-friendly guides that facilitate the adoption of standards-based approaches to cybersecurity. They show members of the information security community how to implement example solutions that help them align more easily with relevant standards and best practices, and provide users with the materials lists, configuration files, and other information they need to implement a similar approach.
The documents in this series describe example implementations of cybersecurity practices that businesses and other organizations may voluntarily adopt. These documents do not describe regulations or mandatory practices, nor do they carry statutory authority.
Acronyms used in figures can be found in the Acronyms appendix.
ABSTRACT
Federal Information Processing Standards (FIPS) Publication 201-2, “Personal Identity Verification (PIV) of Federal Employees and Contractors,” establishes a standard for a PIV system based on secure and reliable forms of identity credentials issued by the federal government to its employees and contractors. These credentials are intended to authenticate individuals to federally controlled facilities, information systems, and applications as part of access management. In 2005, when FIPS 201 was published, authentication of individuals was geared toward traditional computing devices (i.e., desktop and laptop computers) where the PIV Card provides common multifactor authentication mechanisms through integrated or external smart card readers, where available. With the emergence of computing devices, such as tablets, hybrid computers, and, in particular, mobile devices, the use of PIV Cards has proved to be challenging. Mobile devices lack the integrated smart card readers found in laptop and desktop computers and require separate card readers attached to devices to provide authentication services. To extend the value of PIV systems into mobile devices that do not have PIV Card readers, NIST developed technical guidelines on the implementation and life cycle of identity credentials that are issued by federal departments and agencies to individuals who possess and prove control over a valid PIV Card. These NIST guidelines, published in 2014, describe Derived PIV Credentials (DPCs) that leverage identity proofing and vetting results of current and valid PIV credentials.
To demonstrate the DPC guidelines, the NCCoE at NIST built two security architectures using commercial technology to enable the issuance of a Derived PIV Credential to mobile devices that use Identity Credentialing and Access Management shared services. One option uses a software-only solution while the other leverages hardware built into many computing devices used today.
This project resulted in a freely available NIST Cybersecurity Practice Guide that demonstrates how an organization can continue to provide multifactor authentication for users with a mobile device that leverages the strengths of the PIV standard. Although this project is primarily aimed at the federal sector’s needs, it is also relevant to mobile device users with smart-card-based credentials in the private sector.

1. Introduction¶
The following volumes of this guide show information technology (IT) professionals and security engineers how we implemented these example solutions. We cover all of the products employed in these reference designs. We do not re-create the product manufacturers’ documentation, which is presumed to be widely available. Rather, these volumes show how we incorporated the products together in our environment.
Note: These are not comprehensive tutorials. There are many possible service and security configurations for these products that are out of scope for these reference designs.
1.1. Practice Guide Structure¶
This National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) Cybersecurity Practice Guide demonstrates two standards-based reference designs and provides users with the information they need to replicate a Derived Personal Identity Verification (PIV) Credential (DPC) life-cycle solution. These reference designs are modular and can be deployed in whole or in part.
This guide contains three volumes:
- NIST SP 1800-12A: Executive Summary
- NIST SP 1800-12B: Approach, Architecture, and Security Characteristics – what we built and why
- NIST SP 1800-12C: How-To Guides – instructions for building the example solutions (you are here)
Depending on your role in your organization, you might use this guide in different ways:
Business decision makers, including chief security and technology officers, will be interested in the Executive Summary, NIST SP 1800-12A, which describes the following topics:
- challenges that enterprises face in issuing strong, multifactor credentials to mobile devices
- example solutions built at the NCCoE
- benefits of adopting an example solution
Technology or security program managers who are concerned with how to identify, understand, assess, and mitigate risk will be interested in NIST SP 1800-12B, which describes what we did and why. The following sections will be of particular interest:
- Section 3.5.3, Risk, provides a description of the risk analysis we performed.
- Section 3.5.4, Security Control Map, maps the security characteristics of these example solutions to cybersecurity standards and best practices.
You might share the Executive Summary, NIST SP 1800-12A, with your leadership team members to help them understand the importance of adopting a standards-based DPC solution.
IT professionals who want to implement an approach like this will find this whole practice guide useful. You can use this How-To portion of the guide, NIST SP 1800-12C, to replicate all or parts of the build created in our lab. This How-To portion of the guide provides specific product installation, configuration, and integration instructions for implementing the example solutions. We do not recreate the product manufacturers’ documentation, which is generally widely available. Rather, we show how we incorporated the products together in our environment to create example solutions.
This guide assumes that IT professionals have experience implementing security products within the enterprise. While we have used a suite of commercial products to address this challenge, this guide does not endorse these particular products. Your organization can adopt one of these solutions or one that adheres to these guidelines in whole, or you can use this guide as a starting point for tailoring and implementing parts of a DPC example solution. Your organization’s security experts should identify the products that will best integrate with your existing tools and IT system infrastructure. We hope that you will seek products that are congruent with applicable standards and best practices. Volume B, Section 3.6, Technologies, lists the products that we used and maps them to the cybersecurity controls provided by these reference solutions.
1.2. Build Overview¶
Unlike desktop computers and laptops that have built-in readers to facilitate the use of PIV Cards, mobile devices pose usability and portability issues because they lack a smart card reader.
NIST sought to address this issue by introducing the general concept of DPCs in NIST Special Publication (SP) 800-63-2, which leverages identity proofing and vetting results of current and valid credentials. Published in 2014, NIST SP 800-157, Guidelines for Derived Personal Identity Verification (PIV) Credentials, defined requirements for initial issuance and maintenance of DPCs. NIST’s Applied Cybersecurity Division then created a National Cybersecurity Center of Excellence (NCCoE) project to provide an example implementation for federal agencies and private entities that follows the requirements in NIST SP 800-157.
In the NCCoE lab, the team built an environment that resembles an enterprise network by using commonplace components such as identity repositories, supporting certificate authorities (CA), and web servers. In addition, products and capabilities were identified that, when linked together, provide two example solutions that demonstrate life-cycle functions outlined in NIST SP 800-157. Figure 1-1 depicts the final lab environment.

2. Product Installation Guides¶
This section of the practice guide contains detailed instructions for installing and configuring key products used for the depicted architectures documented below, as well as demonstration of the DPC life-cycle management activities of initial issuance and termination.
In our lab environment, each example implementation was logically separated by a virtual local area network (VLAN), where each VLAN represented a mock enterprise environment. The network topology consists of an edge router connected to a demilitarized zone (DMZ). An internal firewall separates the DMZ from internal systems that support the enterprise. All routers and firewalls used in the example implementations were virtual pfSense appliances.
As a basis, the enterprise network had an instance of Active Directory (AD) to serve as a repository for identities to support DPC vendors.
2.1. Managed Service Architecture with Enterprise Mobility Management (EMM) Integration¶
Figure 2-1 Architecture
2.1.1. Entrust Datacard IdentityGuard (IDG)¶
Entrust Datacard contributed test instances of its managed public key infrastructure (PKI) service and IdentityGuard products, the latter of which directly integrate with MobileIron to support the use of DPC with MobileIron Mobile@Work applications. Contact Entrust Datacard (https://www.entrust.com/contact/) to establish service instances in support of DPC with MobileIron (https://www.mobileiron.com/).
2.1.1.1. Identity Management Profiles¶
To configure services and issue certificates for DPCs that will work with the organizationʼs user identity profiles, Entrust Datacard will need information on how identities are structured and which users will use PKI services. For this lab instance, Entrust Datacard issued PIV Authentication, Digital Signature, and Encryption certificates for PIV Cards and DPCs for two test identities, as represented in Table 2-1.

2.1.2.1. Installation¶
Follow the steps below to install MobileIron Core:
- Obtain a copy of the On-Premise Installation Guide for MobileIron Core, Sentry, and Enterprise Connector from the MobileIron support portal.
- Follow the MobileIron Core predeployment and installation steps in Chapter 1 for the version of MobileIron being deployed in the organization’s environment. In our lab implementation, we deployed MobileIron Core 9.2.0.0 as a Virtual Core running on VMware 6.0.
2.1.2.2. General MobileIron Core Setup¶
The following steps are necessary for mobile device administrators or users to register devices with MobileIron, which is a prerequisite to issuing DPCs.
- Obtain a copy of MobileIron Core Device Management Guide for iOS Devices from the Mobile-Iron support portal.
- Complete all instructions provided in Chapter 1, Setup Tasks.
2.1.2.3. Configuration of MobileIron Core for DPC¶
The following steps will reproduce this configuration of MobileIron Core.
2.1.2.3.1. Integration with Active Directory¶
In our implementation, we chose to integrate MobileIron Core with Active Directory by using lightweight directory access protocol (LDAP). This is optional. General instructions for this process are covered in the Configuring LDAP Servers section in Chapter 2 of On-Premise Installation Guide for MobileIron Core, Sentry, and Enterprise Connector. The configuration details used during our completion of selected steps (retaining original numbering) from that guide are given below:
From Step 4 in the MobileIron guide, in the New LDAP Server dialogue:
Directory Connection:
Directory Configuration—Organizational Units (OUs):
Directory Configuration—Users:
Directory Configuration—Groups:
LDAP Groups:
As a prerequisite step, we used Active Directory Users and Computers to create a new security group for DPC-authorized users on the Domain Controller for the entrust.dpc.local domain. In our example, this group is named DPC Users.
In the search bar, enter the name of the LDAP group for DPC-authorized users, and click the magnifying glass button; the group name should be added to the Available list.
In the Available list, select DPC Users, and click the right-arrow button to move it to the Selected list.
In the Selected list, select the default Users group, and click the left-arrow button to move it to the Available list.
Note: In our lab environment, we did not enable stronger Quality of Protection or enable the Use Client TLS Certificate or Request Mutual Authentication features. However, we recommend that implementers consider using those additional security mechanisms to secure communications with the LDAP server.
From Steps 19 to 21 from the MobileIron guide, we tested that MobileIron can successfully query LDAP for DPC Users.
In the New LDAP Setting dialogue, click the Test button to open the LDAP Test dialogue.
In the LDAP Test dialogue, enter a User ID for a member of the DPC Users group, then click the Submit button. A member of the DPC Users group in our environment is Matteo.
The LDAP Test dialogue indicates the query was successful:
2.1.2.3.2. Create a DPC Users Label¶
MobileIron uses labels to link policies and device configurations with users and mobile devices. Creating a unique label for DPC users allows mobile device administrators to apply controls relevant for mobile devices provisioned with a derived credential specifically to those devices. We recommend applying DPC-specific policies and configurations to this label, in addition to any others appropriate to an organization’s mobile device security policy.
In the MobileIron Core Admin Portal, navigate to Devices & Users > Devices.
Select Advanced Search (far right).
In the Advanced Search pane:
In the blank rule:
- In the Field drop-down menu, select User > LDAP > Groups > Name.
- In the Value drop-down menu, select the Active Directory group created to support DPC-specific MobileIron policies (named DPC Users in this example).
Select the plus sign icon to add a blank rule.
In the newly created blank rule:
- In the Field drop-down menu, select Common > Platform.
- In the Value drop-down menu, select iOS.
Optionally, select Search to view matching devices.
Select Save to Label.
In the Save to Label dialogue:
- In the Name field, enter a descriptive name for this label (DPC Users in this example).
- In the Description field, provide additional information to convey the purpose of this label.
- Click Save.
Navigate to Devices & Users > Labels to confirm that the label was successfully created. It can be applied to DPC-specific MobileIron policies and configurations in future steps.
2.1.2.3.3. Implement MobileIron Guidance¶
The following provides the sections from the MobileIron Derived Credentials with Entrust Guide that were used in configuring this instance of MobileIron DPC. For sections for which there may be configuration items tailored to a given instance (e.g., local system host names), this configuration is provided only as a reference. We noted any sections in which the steps performed to configure our systems vary from those in the MobileIron Derived Credentials with Entrust Guide.
Complete these sections in Chapter 2 of the MobileIron Derived Credentials with Entrust Guide:
Before beginning:
Configure client certificate authentication to the user portal.
Note: The root CA certificate or trust chain file can be obtained from Entrust Datacard.
Configure the Entrust IdentityGuard Self-Service Module universal resource locator.
Note: The URL will be specific to the organization’s instance of the IDG service and can be obtained from Entrust Datacard.
Configure PIN-based registration.
Configure user portal roles.
Add the PIV-D Entrust application to the App Catalog and add Web@Work for iOS.
Configure Apps@Work.
- Set authentication options.
- Send the Apps@Work web clip to devices.
Configure AppConnect.
Note: Based on our testing, a Passcode Strength of 61/100 or higher prevents easily guessable derived credential passcode combinations (e.g., abc123) from being set by a DPC Applicant.
Configure the PIV-D Entrust application.
Configure client-provided certificate enrollment settings. Note that the configuration items created by completing this section will be used in the following section. Replace Step 2 in this section of the MobileIron Derived Credentials with Entrust Guide with the following step:
Select Add New > Certificate Enrollment > SCEP.
Configure Web@Work to use DPC:
Require a device password.
Configure a Web@Work setting. The Custom Configurations key-value pairs set for our instance in Step 4 are presented below.
Note: The value for
idCertificate_1
is the descriptive name we applied to the Simple Certificate Enrollment Protocol (SCEP) certificate enrollment configuration for derived credential authentication created in the MobileIron Derived Credentials with Entrust Guide section referenced in Step 8.
2.1.3. DPC Life-Cycle Workflows¶
This section describes how to perform the DPC life-cycle activities of initial issuance, maintenance, and termination.
2.1.3.1. DPC Initial Issuance¶
This section provides the steps necessary to issue a DPC onto a target mobile device.
2.1.3.1.1. Register Target Device with MobileIron¶
The following steps will register the target mobile device with MobileIron, which will create the secure Mobile@Work container into which a DPC is later provisioned.
Insert a valid PIV Card into the card reader attached to or integrated into your laptop or computer workstation.
Using a web browser, visit the MobileIron Self-Service Portal URL provided by the administrator.
In the MobileIron Self-Service Portal, click Sign in with certificate.
In the certificate selection dialogue:
If necessary, identify your PIV Authentication certificate:
Select your PIV Authentication certificate in the list of available certificates.
Click OK.
In the authentication dialogue:
In the right-hand sidebar of the device summary screen, click Request Registration PIN.
In the Request Registration PIN page:
Select iOS from the Platform drop-down menu.
If your device does not have a phone number, check My device has no phone number.
If your device has a phone number, enter it in the Phone Number field.
Click Request PIN.
The Confirmation page, shown in Figure 2-2, displays a unique device Registration PIN. Leave this page open while additional registration steps are performed on the target mobile device.
Note: This page may also facilitate the workflow for initial DPC issuance, covered in Section 2.1.3.1.2.
Figure 2-2 MobileIron Registration Confirmation Page
Using the target mobile device, launch the MobileIron Mobile@Work application.
In the request to grant MobileIron permission to receive push notifications, tap Allow.
In Mobile@Work:
In the User Name field, enter your LDAP or MobileIron user ID.
Tap Next.
In the Server field, enter the URL for the organizationʼs instance of MobileIron Core as provided by a MobileIron Core administrator.
Tap Next.
In the PIN field, enter the Registration PIN displayed in the Confirmation page (see Figure 2-2) of the MobileIron Self-Service Portal at completion of Step 7e.
Tap Go on keyboard or Register in Mobile@Work.
In the Privacy screen, tap Continue.
In the Updating Configuration dialogue, tap OK; this will launch the built-in iOS Settings application.
In the Settings application, in the Install Profile dialogue:
In the Enter Passcode dialogue:
In the Install Profile dialogue, tap Install.
In the Warning dialogue, tap Install.
In the Remote Management dialogue, tap Trust.
Note: The root certificate presented in this step may vary based on the CA used to sign the MDM profile. This build uses the Let’s Encrypt certificate authority.
In the Profile Installed dialogue, tap Done.
In the App Management Change dialogue, tap Manage.
If additional Mobile@Work applications (e.g., Email+) are installed as part of the MobileIron management profile (based on your organizationʼs use case), an App Installation dialogue will appear for each application. To confirm, tap Install.
In the Profile Installed dialogue, tap Done.
The Mobile@Work > Home screen should now display check marks for both status indicators of Connection established (with MobileIron Core) and Device in compliance (with the MobileIron policies that apply to your device).
2.1.3.1.2. DPC Initial Issuance¶
The following steps demonstrate how a DPC is issued to an applicantʼs mobile device. It assumes the target mobile device is registered with MobileIron (see Register Target Device with MobileIron) and the MobileIron PIV-D Entrust application is installed (see Implement MobileIron Guidance). These steps are completed by the mobile device user who is receiving a DPC.
Launch the MobileIron PIV-D Entrust application on the target mobile device.
If a Mobile@Work Secure Apps passcode has not been set, you will be prompted to create one. In the Mobile@Work Secure Apps screen:
In the Enter your new passcode field, enter a password consistent with your organizationʼs DPC password policy. This password will be used to activate your DPC (password-based subscriber authentication) for use by Mobile@Work secure applications.
Note: NIST SP 800-63-3 increased the minimum DPC password length to eight characters.
In the Re-enter your new passcode field, reenter the password you entered in Step 2b.
Tap Done.
Following registration with MobileIron Core and when no DPC is associated with Mobile@Work, PIV-D Entrust displays a screen for managing your DPC. You will return to this application in a later step.
Insert your valid PIV Card into the reader attached to your laptop or computer workstation.
To request a DPC during the same session as registration with MobileIron:
In the MobileIron Self-Service Portal Confirmation page (see Figure 2-2), click Request Derived Credential.
In the certificate selection dialogue:
Select your PIV Authentication certificate from the list of available certificates. See Step 4 of Section 2.1.3.1.1 for additional steps to identify this certificate, as necessary.
Click OK.
Continue with Step 6.
To request a DPC in a new session:
Using a web browser, visit the Entrust IDG Self-Service Portal URL provided by an administrator.
In the Entrust IDG Self-Service Portal, under Smart Credential Log In, click Log In.
Note: The portal used in our test environment is branded as a fictitious company, AnyBank Self-Service.
In the Select a certificate dialogue:
Select your PIV Authentication certificate from the list of available certificates. See Step 4 of Section 2.1.3.1.1 for additional steps to identify this certificate, as necessary.
Click OK.
In the authentication dialogue:
On the Self-Administration Actions page, follow the I’d like to enroll for a derived mobile smart credential link (displayed below as the last item; this may vary based on which self-administration actions your Entrust IDG administrator enabled).
On the Smart Credential enabled Application page, select Option 2: I’ve successfully downloaded and installed the Smart Credential enabled application.
On the Derived Mobile Smart Credential page:
The Derived Mobile Smart Credential Quick Response (QR) Code Activation page displays information used in future steps; keep this page displayed. The workflow resumes using the MobileIron PIV-D Entrust application that is open on the target mobile device.
Note: Steps 11–13 must be completed by using the target mobile device within approximately three minutes, otherwise Steps 7–10 must be repeated to generate new activation codes.
Figure 2-3 Derived Mobile Smart Credential QR Code Activation Page
In the PIV-D Entrust application that is running on the target mobile device, tap Activate New Credential.
Use the device camera to capture the QR code displayed on the Derived Mobile Smart Credential QR Code Activation page as represented in Figure 2-3.
On the Activate Credential screen:
Enter the password below the QR code that is displayed on the Derived Mobile Smart Credential QR Code Activation page (displayed by the same device used to perform Steps 4–10) as represented in Figure 2-3.
Tap Activate.
If issuance was successful, the PIV-D Entrust application should automatically launch Mobile-Iron. Go to Mobile@Work > Settings > Entrust Credential to view its details.
2.1.3.2. DPC Maintenance¶
Changes to a DPC subscriberʼs PIV Card that result in a rekey or reissuance (e.g., official name change) require the subscriber to repeat the initial issuance workflow as described in the previous section. The issued DPC will replace any existing DPC in the MobileIron Apps@Work container.
2.1.3.3. DPC Termination¶
Termination of a DPC can be initiated from the MobileIron Admin Console. Upon completion of this workflow, the DPC stored in the MobileIron Apps@Work container will be cryptographically wiped (destroyed). These steps are performed by a MobileIron Core administrator.
In the MobileIron Admin Console, navigate to Devices & Users > Devices.
Select the checkbox in the row identifying the mobile device to be retired.
Select Actions > Retire.
In the Retire dialogue that appears:
The Devices tab no longer displays the retired mobile device in the list of the devices.
The MobileIron PIV-D Entrust application now no longer reflects management by MobileIron. As a result, the DPC has been cryptographically wiped (destroyed) and its recovery is computationally infeasible.
2.2. Hybrid Architecture for PIV and DPC Life-Cycle Management¶
This section describes installation and configuration of key products for the architecture depicted in Figure 2-4 and Figure 2-5, as well as demonstration of the DPC life-cycle management activities of initial issuance and termination. Figure 2-4 focuses on the mobile device implementation. Here, the Identity Agent application is used to manage the DPC. The DPC authentication key is stored in a software keystore within the secure container. The supporting cloud and enterprise systems as described above are also shown. Figure 2-5 depicts the architecture when an Intel-based device that supports Intel Authenticate is used to store the DPC.

Figure 2-5 Mobile Device Hybrid Architecture for PIV Card and DPC Life-Cycle Management (Intel Authenticate)
2.2.1. Intercede MyID CMS¶
Intercede offers its identity and credential management system (CMS) product, MyID, as a software solution that can be hosted in the cloud or deployed on premises. The MyID server platform is composed of an application server, database, and web server. It provides connectors to infrastructure components such as directories and PKIs, and application programming interfaces to enable integration with the organization’s identity and access management system. The MyID CMS is the core component for the architecture; as such, it should be fully configured and operational before other components.
2.2.1.1. Installation¶
Detailed instructions to install an instance of the MyID CMS are in the Intercede document MyID Version 10.8 Installation and Configuration Guide. Here, we document specific installation instructions for our environment.
The MyID system is modularly designed with web, application, and database tiers. In a production environment, it is likely that these tiers are separated onto multiple systems depending on performance and disaster recovery requirements. However, in our architecture, all tiers were installed on a Windows Server 2012 system due to resource constraints. Finally, role separation within the MyID system is not addressed here but should be considered before any deployment.
- Install a supported version of Microsoft Structured Query Language (SQL) Server on the target MyID server. Our environment uses SQL Server 2012 with the SQL Server Database Engine and SQL Server Management Tools. See Table 2-3 SQL Server Components for specific component versions. A full settings document (Exported-2017-07-27.vssettings) is available from the NCCoE DPC Project website. Refer to Microsoft’s online documentation for specific installation procedures.

2.2.1.3. Configuration for DPC¶
Detailed instructions to configure an instance of the MyID CMS for DPC are in Intercede’s Derived Credentials Installation and Configuration Guide. Here, we document the specific configurations used within our builds. Before you begin, you need the Test Federal Common Policy CA root certificate file, which can be downloaded from the Federal PKI test repository. Also obtain the intermediate certificates for the Verizon SSP certificate chain (Verizon SSP CA A2 Test and Verizon SSP CA C1 Test) from the Verizon certificate test repositories.
The first step in configuration is to create a content signing certificate that is used to sign data stored on the DPC mobile container. This certificate (and associated private key) must be made available to MyID through the Windows Cryptographic Application Interface store on the same server where the MyID server is installed. There are various ways to generate a certificate; in our environment we chose to create a certificate authority on a separate instance of Windows Server 2012.
Install Microsoft Certificate Services. There are a few online resources that can assist in the installation process. We suggest the Adding Active Directory Certificate Services to a Lab Environment tutorial from the Microsoft Developer Network.
Add a certificate template. For reference, we have exported the certificate template (PIVContentSigning) that we used for the content signing certificate. The configuration file (CertificateTemplates.xml) is available for download from the NCCoE DPC Project website. A script to import the certificate template can be found at the Microsoft Script Center.
Request a content signing certificate from the MyID system by using the procedures noted in the “Request a Certificate” TechNet article.
Save the content signing certificate in binary format to the Components folder of the MyID installation folder.
Edit the system registry with the following procedures:
From the Start menu:
- Select Run.
- Type
regedit
in the dialogue displayed. - Click OK.
Navigate to HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\wow6432Node\Intercede\Edefice\ContentSigning.
Check that the value of the following string is set:
Active–set to WebService.
Set the value of the following string to the full path of the certificate on the application server:
For example: C:\Program Files (x86)\Intercede\MyID\Components\contentcert.cer
Set the location of the MyID web service that allows a mobile device to collect the DPC by using the following procedures within MyID Desktop:
From the Configuration category, select the Operation Settings workflow.
Click the Certificates tab.
Set the Mobile Certificate Recovery Service URL option to the location of the MyID Process Driver web service host.
For example: https://<replace-with-your-hostname>
Click Save Changes.
Set which PIV Cards are available for DPC by using the following procedures within MyID Desktop:
- From the Configuration category, select the Operation Settings workflow.
- Click the Certificates tab.

- Click Save Changes.
Configure the system to check the revocation status of the PIV Authentication certificate to seven days by using the following procedures within MyID Desktop:
- From the Configuration category, select Operation Settings.
- On the Certificates tab, set Derived credential revocation check offset to 7.
- Click Save Changes.
Grant access to the following workflows by using the MyID Desktop: Request Derived Credentials, Cancel Credential, Enable/Disable ID, Request Replacement ID, Unlock Credential, Collect My Updates.
- From the Configuration category, select the Edit Roles workflow.
- Select the checkbox for each of the roles to which you want to grant access. In our environment, Startup User was selected for all workflows.
- Click Save Changes.
Edit the workflows from Step 8 with the appropriate permissions.
- From the Configuration category, select the Edit Roles workflow.
- Click Show/Hide Roles.
- Select the checkboxes for Mobile User, Derived Credential Owner, and PIV Applicant.
- Click Close.
- Select the corresponding roles:

Derived Credential Owner | Console Logon, Request Derived Credentials (part 2), Collect My Updates, Issue Device |
PIV Applicant | Request Derived Credentials (part 2), Collect My Updates |
Import the Test Federal Common Policy CA certificate into the MyID application server by using the following command as an administrator. This enables the administrator to control the PKI hierarchy that is trusted when verifying PIV Cards:
certutil -addstore -f -Enterprise DerivedCredentialTrustedRoots RootCA.cer
Configure the MyID system with the PIV Authentication and Digital Signature certificate policy Object Identifiers (OIDs) by using the following procedures. The values shown below are production values, so they may need to be changed for your organization:
- From the MyID Desktop Configuration category, select Operation Settings.
- On the Certificates tab, set the following values:
Setting | Value |
---|---|
Derived credential certificate OID | 2.16.840.1.101.3.2.1.3.13 |
Derived credential signing certificate OID | 2.16.840.1.101.3.2.1.3.6; 2.16.840.1.101.3.2.1.3.7; 2.16.840.1.101.3.2.1.3.16 |
