U.S. Department of Energy ORDER
Washington, D.C. DOE O 206.2
Approved: 2-19-2013
SUBJECT: IDENTITY, CREDENTIAL, AND ACCESS MANAGEMENT (ICAM)
1. PURPOSE. To establish requirements and responsibilities for DOE’s identity, credential,
and access management program that:
a. Provides a trusted framework and common identity infrastructure for access to
DOE facilities and systems;
b. Reduces the identity, credential, and access management burden for individual
DOE and contractor organizations by fostering common interoperable
approaches;
c. Aligns identity, credential, and access management activities that cross
organizational boundaries;
d. Enables trust in online transactions through common identity, credential, and
access management policies and approaches; and
e. Establishes roles to enhance interoperability when collaborating with external
identity management activities.
2. CANCELLATION. DOE N 206.4, Personal Identity Verification, dated 6-29-07.
Cancellation of a directive does not, by itself, modify or otherwise affect any contractual
or regulatory obligation to comply with the directive. Contractor Requirements
Documents (CRDs) that have been incorporated into a contract remain in effect
throughout the term of the contract unless and until the contract or regulatory
commitment is modified to either eliminate requirements that are no longer applicable or
substitute a new set of requirements.
3. APPLICABILITY.
a. Departmental Applicability. Except for the equivalencies/exemptions in paragraph
3c., this Order applies to all DOE Elements. The Administrator of the National
Nuclear Security Administration (NNSA) must assure that NNSA employees
comply with their responsibilities under this directive. Nothing in this directive
will be construed to interfere with the NNSA Administrator’s authority under
section 3212(d) of Public Law (P.L.) 106-65 to establish Administration-specific
policies, unless disapproved by the Secretary.
b. DOE Contractors.
(1) Except for the exemptions in paragraph 3c, the Contractor
Requirements Document (CRD) sets forth requirements of this
Order that will apply to contracts that include the CRD.

2 DOE O 206.2
2-19-2013
(2) The CRD, or its requirements, must be included in contracts when:
(a) Contractor personnel require routine access to a DOE facility or
DOE information system; or
(b) The contractor operates a DOE facility or DOE information
system.
c. Equivalency/Exemption.
(1) Equivalency. In accordance with the responsibilities and
authorities assigned by Executive Order 12344, codified at 50 USC
2406 and 2511 and to ensure consistency through the joint
Navy/DOE Naval Nuclear Propulsion Program, the Deputy
Administrator for Naval Reactors (Director) will implement and
oversee requirements and practices pertaining to this Directive for
activities under the Director's cognizance, as deemed appropriate.
(2) Exemption. DOE information systems that are
considered “national security systems” as defined by 44 U.S.C.
3542(b)(2) are exempt from this Order.
4. REQUIREMENTS.
a. General.
(1) DOE facilities and DOE information systems must meet the
requirements of Office of Management and Budget (OMB) M-11-
11, which requires that agency implementations align with the
Federal Chief Information Officers Council’s Federal Identity
Credential Access Management (FICAM) Roadmap and
Implementation Guidance.
Section 2
(2) DOE must procure services and products that comply with
HSPD-12 requirements in current Federal Acquisition Regulations
and, where applicable, are on the General Services Administration
(GSA) Approved Products List.
b. Identity.
(1) Enterprise Identity Management Service. An enterprise identity
management service (EIMS) must be developed and offered as a
Department-wide service that:
(a) Links authoritative sources of identity information on DOE
employees and contractor employees;
3 DOE O 206.2
2-19-2013
(b) Establishes a unique identity record for each DOE employee and
contractor employee;
(c) Provides DOE Elements a singular authoritative source for identity
information to conduct DOE business; and
(d) Supports the management of federated identity records from
trusted identity providers both internal and external to the Federal
Government.
(2) DOE Unique Identifier. All DOE employees and contractor
employees must have a DOE unique identifier that remains with
the individual forever. The DOE unique identifier must never be
assigned to another individual. Individuals must always have the
same DOE unique identifier:
(a) No matter how often they join and separate from DOE
(b) If they move to/and from Federal employee or contractor employee
status; or
(c) If they are employed by multiple contractors.
(3) Identity Information. Information about an individual’s identity
should be collected only once and maintained in an authoritative
data source and must be shared across DOE Elements through the
EIMS.
(4) Identity Record. The identity record in the EIMS must contain a
DOE unique identifier and all identity information that is
associated with DOE employee or contractor employee.
(5) Authoritative Data Sources. Multiple authoritative data sources
may contain information that constitute an identity record for an
individual.
(a) A registry of authoritative data sources must exist and be
maintained.
(b) Authoritative data sources must make available identity
information to the EIMS.
(c) A responsible entity must be identified to maintain each
authoritative data source.
(6) Lifecycle Management. Identity information must be established
and maintained by the DOE entity which is responsible for the
4 DOE O 206.2
2-19-2013
accuracy of the information. The DOE unique identifier ensures
that an individual only has one identity record in EIMS.
(7) Enterprise Backend Attribute Exchange (BAE) Service. An
enterprise BAE service must be established and maintained that:
(a) Is compliant with the Federal guidance and specifications for BAE;
(b) Interfaces with other Federal Agency BAE service providers to
share DOE identity information with other Federal Agencies; and
(c) Provides DOE Elements a singular authoritative source for identity
information of other Federal Agencies to conduct DOE business.
c. Credentials.
(1) HSPD-12 Credentials. HSPD-12 Credentials are the Federal
identification credentials that are compliant with National Institute
of Standards and Technology (NIST) Federal Information
Processing Standard (FIPS) 201-1, Personal Identity Verification
(PIV) of Federal Employees and Contractors, dated 3-2006, or its
successor. [See Appendix A for further information on Personal
Identity Verification (PIV).] Issuance of HSPD-12 Credentials to
DOE employees or contractor employees who are employed or
providing services for less than 6 months must be based on a risk
analysis.
(a) HSPD–12 Credentials must be issued to:
Section 3
1 DOE employees;
2 Cleared contractor employees;
3 Uncleared contractor employees servicing DOE
Headquarters; and
4 Other uncleared DOE contractor employees based on a risk
analysis.
(b) Processes and procedures for the issuance of DOE HSPD-12
Credentials must be specified in the DOE PIV Card Issuer (PCI)
Operations Plan per NIST Special Publication 800-79-1,
Guidelines for the Accreditation of Personal Identity Verification
(PIV) Card Issuers (PCI's), dated 6-2008, or its successor. HSPD-
12 Credential role holders facilitate credential issuance,
maintenance and lifecycle management.
5 DOE O 206.2
2-19-2013
1 FIPS 201-1 specifies required separation of duties relative
to the HSPD-12 Credential issuance process.
2 DOE Implementation of HSPD–12 credential-related tasks
and assignment of roles will be defined in the PCI
Operations Plan.
3 Authorizing the issuance of HSPD-12 Credentials is a
Federal function, except in the case of Management and
Operating (M&O) contractors. M&O contractors may
authorize credential issuance to their own employees and to
their subcontractors’ employees.
(2) DOE Security Badges. The HSPD-12 Credential is the DOE
security badge. DOE O 473.3, Protection Program Operations,
dated 6-29-11, or its successor document, establishes requirements
for usage of the DOE security badge.
(3) Other Government Agencies (OGA). HSPD-12 Credentials issued
by OGAs must be accepted for identification of individuals as
though it was issued by DOE. DOE shall not issue HSPD-12
Credentials to Federal employees from OGAs that issue HSPD-12
Credentials, including the Department of Defense (DoD), without
approval from the Office of Health, Safety and Security (HSS).
(4) Other Badges. The issuance of other badges to include, but not
limited to, the Office of Science badge and Local Site Specific
Only (LSSO) badges, is specified in DOE O 473.3.
d. Authentication and Authorization.

the Chief Information Officer (OCIO), which includes, at a
minimum:
1 The DOE HSPD-12 Credential;
2 HSPD-12 Credentials from OGAs;
3 Personal Identity Verification Interoperability (PIV-I)
credentials; and
6 DOE O 206.2
2-19-2013
4 Federated identity credentials from identity providers
certified under the Trust Framework Provider Adoption
Process (TFPAP).
(2) DOE Information Systems. DOE information systems must ensure
that the credential used for authentication meets the minimum level
of assurance (LOA) requirements, which are determined by
conducting an electronic authentication risk assessment per OMB
M-04-04 in conjunction with a FIPS 199 assessment.
(a) New DOE Information Systems. New DOE information systems
must accept the following credentials if presented by the user and
the credential meets or exceeds the LOA of the system:
1 An HSPD-12 Credential for DOE employees and
contractor employees who possess an HSPD-12 Credential
as required by this Order;
2 An HSPD-12 Credential for Federal employees and
contractor employees from other government agencies;
3 A PIV-I credential; and
4 A federated identity credential from an identity provider
certified under the TFPAP.
Section 4
(b) Existing DOE Information Systems. Existing DOE information
systems must be upgraded to accept the credentials in 4d(2)(a), as
appropriate, using the Risk Management Approach per DOE O
205.1B, Department of Energy Cyber Security Program, dated 5-
16-11, or its successor.
(c) System Specific Credentials. DOE information system owners may
issue and manage credentials for authentication ONLY when:
1 The individual does not possess or have access to one of
the credentials in 4d(2)(a); or
2 The DOE information system requires individuals to
authenticate with a credential in addition to the credentials
in 4d(2)(a).
(d) DOE Headquarters Information Systems. DOE Headquarters
information systems owned and operated by DOE Headquarters
Staff Offices or by contractors on behalf of DOE Headquarters
Staff Offices must use the EAMS for authentication.

(3) DOE Facilities.
(a) Access control decisions are based on risk management principles
as required by DOE O 473.3 and DOE O 470.4B, Safeguards and
Security Program, dated 7-21-11, or their successors.
(b) Access control processes must accept for authentication the
following credentials:
1 An HSPD-12 Credential for DOE employees and
contractor employees;
2 An HSPD-12 Credential for Federal employees and
contractor employees from other government agencies; and
3 A PIV-I credential.
(c) Automated access control systems should obtain authoritative data
from the EIMS.
(d) DOE O 473.3 contains the requirements for access control
systems.
(4) Background Investigations. This Order does not impose
background investigation requirements for authentication and
authorization to DOE facilities or DOE information systems.
(5) Authorization. Authorization to access a DOE facility or a DOE
information system is inherently a risk-based decision.
e. Privilege Management.
(1) DOE employees and contractor employees must have access to a
DOE information system and/or DOE facility:
(a) To which they are entitled for the performance of official duties;
and
(b) Only for the time period or duration in which they require it.

7. DEFINITIONS.
a. Adjudicator: The individual authorized to record the adjudication result for an
applicant. The Adjudicator enters or updates the adjudication results for
applicants in the credential issuance system.
b. Applicant: An individual applying for an HSPD-12 Credential. The applicant
may be a current or prospective Federal hire or a Federal employee or an
applicant for employment with a DOE contractor or a current DOE contractor
employee.
c. Authentication: The process of verifying a person’s identity using a credential
(password, PIN, smartcard, badge, etc). The Physical Access community may use
the term “validate & verify” a credential, which is an equivalent operation.
d. Authoritative Data Source: A repository or system that contains identity
information about an individual and is considered to be the primary or most
reliable source for this information. In the case that two or more systems have
mismatched or conflicting data, the identity information within the authoritative
data source is considered to be the most accurate.
e. Authorization: The processes of granting or denying specific requests for
obtaining and using information processing services or data and to enter specific
physical facilities. Once a person is authenticated, the system determines the
appropriate set of privileges (or access) for that individual.
f. DOE facility: A facility, which is owned (or leased) and operated by DOE or by
contractors on behalf of DOE, that is required by DOE O 473.3 to have access
control.
g. DOE information system: An information system that is owned and operated by
DOE or by contractors on behalf of DOE to accomplish a Federal function.
Regardless of whether DOE Federal employees have access, this does not include
information systems operated by M&O contractors unless such systems’ primary
purpose is to accomplish a Federal function.

h. HSPD-12 Credential: The HSPD-12 Credential is the Personal Identity
Verification Card (or PIV Card) as mandated by Homeland Security Presidential
Directive 12 (HSPD-12).
i. Issuer: The organization that is issuing the HSPD-12 Credential to an applicant.
Section 8
j. Level of Assurance: As described in OMB M-04-04, level of assurance (or LOA)
is the degree of certainty that a credential used for authentication actually refers to
the identity of the person who is using the credential.
k. Personal Identity Verification Interoperability (PIV-I): PIV-I is a credential
that is issued to non-Federal entities per Personal Identity Verification
Interoperability for Non-Federal Issuers dated July 2010, to facilitate interactions
with Federal Government facilities and information systems.
l. Sponsor: The individual who substantiates the current, active DOE employment
status of the individual and the need for an HSPD-12 Credential to be issued to an
applicant, enters the applicant’s required biographical and sponsorship data
elements into the credential issuance system, and remains aware of the applicant’s
status and continuing need for holding an HSPD-12 Credential.

BY ORDER OF THE SECRETARY OF ENERGY:
DANIEL B. PONEMAN
Deputy Secretary
DOE O 206.2 Appendix A
2-19-2013 Page 1
APPENDIX A:
PERSONAL IDENTITY VERIFICATION (PIV)
1. PROCEDURES. Procedures for issuing HSPD–12 Credentials, including identity
proofing, will be specified in the DOE PIV Card Issuer (PCI) Operations Plan.
2. DEFERRED PROCESSING. If an HSPD-12 Credential applicant is currently awaiting a
hearing or trial; is awaiting or serving a form of pre-prosecution probation, suspended or
deferred sentencing, probation, or parole in conjunction with an arrest or criminal charges
against the individual for a crime that is punishable by imprisonment of 6 months or
longer, or has an outstanding warrant, the adjudicator may suspend further processing and
notify the sponsor of the cause. At such time as the hearing, trial, criminal prosecution,
suspended sentencing, deferred sentencing, probation, or parole has been completed, the
applicant may be resubmitted to the identity proofing process to determine eligibility for
an HSPD-12 Credential.
3. BACKGROUND INVESTIGATION. A favorable review of a background investigation
is required before an HSPD–12 Credential is issued or renewed.
a. Adjudication criteria may not exceed the standards established by the 7-31-2008,
OPM memorandum, subject: Final Credentialing Standards for Issuing Personal
Identity Verification Cards under HSPD–12, or subsequent Federal standards or
regulations.
b. In the adjudication process, the adjudicator shall have the authority to obtain
additional information as may be deemed necessary to resolve possible issues of
concern pertaining to the applicant.
c. If, subsequent to the issuance of the HSPD–12 Credential, derogatory information
(per PIV adjudicative standards specified above) is identified, access privileges
will be immediately reviewed and in accordance with current security procedures,
site security and human resources management will determine the level of
continued access privileges. Based on the resolution of the PIV adjudication
and/or appeal process, the HSPD–12 Credential and access privileges will be
revoked or reinstated, as appropriate.
d. For unfavorable adjudication, the adjudicating office must do the following within
2 working days of the determination:
(1) Notify the sponsor in writing that an HSPD-12 Credential will not
be issued to the applicant; and
Section 9
(2) Notify the applicant in writing of the unfavorable adjudication (the
notification must contain the reasons for the denial of the HSPD-12
Credential and the appeal process available to the applicant as
detailed below, including contact information).
Appendix A DOE O 206.2
Page 2 2-19-2013
4. TRANFERS FROM OTHER GOVERNMENT. DOE will accept PIV card credentialing
determinations made by other Federal agencies if they can be verified. The individual
must have undergone the required background investigation.
5. PIV APPEAL PROCESS.
a. The identity verification appeal process does not interfere with DOE's discretion
to make suitability or access authorization (security clearance) determinations
either before or after a person has entered on duty.
b. Upon receipt of the adjudicator’s denial of HSPD-12 Credential notice, the
applicant has 10 working days to inform the adjudicator, in writing or by
electronic means, of the intent to file an appeal. The applicant may be represented
and advised by counsel or a representative of the applicant’s choosing in the
appeal process, at the applicant’s expense.
c. The applicant must file the actual appeal with the adjudicator within 10 working
days after notifying the adjudicator of intent to file. The appeal must be in writing
and provide a response to the information that formed the basis of the denial of
the HSPD-12 Credential.
d. Upon receiving the applicant’s notification of intent to file an appeal, the
adjudicator will identify and notify members of the appeal panel. The appeal
panel will consist of three members, who must be DOE employees who have been
investigated to a level commensurate with the person filing the appeal, as follows:
(1) A representative of the Departmental or Field Element having
cognizance over the site, appointed by the head of that element;
(2) A DOE attorney designated by the General Counsel; and
(3) A representative of the security office for the hiring site, appointed
by the head of the relevant Departmental or Field Element.
e. Upon receipt of the applicant’s written appeal, the adjudicator prepares an appeal
package for each panel member consisting of a copy of all identity proofing
documentation, the background investigation, the notification of denial of the
HSPD-12 Credential providing the adjudicator’s rationale for denial, and the
written appeal of the applicant.
f. Each panel member will review the package and within 30 working days respond
to the adjudicator in writing indicating either concurrence or nonconcurrence with
the denial of the HSPD-12 Credential decision. For any nonconcurrence, the panel
member will provide a brief rationale.
g. The decision of the appeal panel will be determined by simple majority of
concurrence or nonconcurrence. This decision is final. The adjudicator will
inform the applicant and sponsor of the appeal decision and, in those instances
DOE O 206.2 Appendix A

where there is majority nonconcurrence with denial of the HSPD-12 Credential,
the HSPD-12 Credential will be issued in accordance with the PCI Operations
plan.
6. PIV FILES. All documentation created in the PIV process will be retained in files with
unique file identification. PIV case files must be distinct from personnel security (access
authorization) files. When a PIV decision is linked to a personnel security determination,
the personnel security file (PSF) is only used for documentation of the personnel security
process, not the identity-proofing process.

CONTRACTOR REQUIREMENTS DOCUMENT
DOE O 206.2, IDENTITY, CREDENTIAL, AND ACCESS MANAGEMENT
Regardless of the performer of the work, the contractor is responsible for complying with the
requirements of this CRD. The contractor is responsible for flowing down the requirements of
this CRD to subcontractors at any tier to the extent necessary to ensure the contractor’s
compliance with the requirements.
1. GENERAL.
a. HSPD-12 Credentials. HSPD-12 Credentials are the Federal identification
credentials that are compliant with National Institute of Standards and
Technology (NIST) Federal Information Processing Standard (FIPS) 201-1,
Personal Identity Verification (PIV) of Federal Employees and Contractors, dated
3-2006, or its successor. Contractor employees requiring an HSPD-12 Credential
are subject to Personal Identity Verification (PIV) by DOE. Issuance of HSPD-12
Credentials to contractor employees whose term of service is less than 6 months is
at the discretion of the Lead Program Secretarial Officer (LPSO) and based on a
risk analysis.
(1) HSPD–12 Credentials must be issued to:
(a) Cleared DOE contractor employees;
(b) Uncleared contractor employees servicing DOE Headquarters; and
(c) Other uncleared DOE contractor employees at the discretion of the
LPSO and based on a risk analysis.
(2) M&O contractors may authorize HSPD-12 Credential issuance to
their own employees and to their subcontractors’ employees. DOE
HSPD-12 Credentials are issued consistent with procedures
contained in the DOE PIV Card Issuer (PCI) Operations Plan.
b. Identity. Contractors may participate in the enterprise identity management
service (EIMS) and should determine participation based on business value and
risks. If participating, contractors must:
(1) Identify their authoritative data sources to the DOE registry of
authoritative data sources; and
(2) Make available identity information from authoritative data
sources to the EIMS.
Attachment 1 DOE O 206.2
Page 2 2-19-2013
c. Electronic Transactions with DOE. When DOE requires digital signatures or
encryption, contractors must enable the use of Public Key Infrastructure (PKI)
certificates.
(1) The PKI must comply with the current X.509 Certificate Policy for
the U.S. Federal PKI Common Policy Framework.
(2) Contractors should use the PKI certificates that are on the HSPD-
12 Credential, when practical.
2. DOE INFORMATION SYSTEMS. When operating a DOE information system as
defined in this Order, the contractor must meet the following requirements.
a. General. DOE information systems must meet the requirements of Office of
Management and Budget (OMB) M-11-11, which requires that agency
implementations align with The Federal Chief Information Officers Council’s
Federal Identity Credential Access Management (FICAM) Roadmap and
Implementation Guidance.
b. Authentication and Authorization.
(1) DOE information systems must ensure that the credential used for
authentication meets the minimum level of assurance (LOA)
requirements, which are determined by conducting an electronic
authentication risk assessment per OMB M-04-04 in conjunction
with a FIPS 199 assessment.
(a) New systems must accept the following credentials if presented by
the user and the credential meets or exceeds the LOA of the
system:
1 An HSPD-12 Credential for DOE employees and
contractor employees who possess an HSPD-12 Credential
as required by this Order;
Section 11
2 An HSPD-12 Credential for Federal employees and
contractor employees from other government agencies;
3 A Personal Identity Verification Interoperability (PIV-I)
credential; and
4 A federated identity credential from an identity provider
certified under the Trust Framework Provider Adoption
Process (TFPAP).
(b) Existing DOE information systems must be upgraded to accept the
credentials in 2b(1)(a), as appropriate, using the Risk Management
DOE O 206.2
2-19-2013
Attachment 1
Page 3
Approach per DOE O 205.1B, Department of Energy Cyber
Security Program, dated 5-16-11, or its successor.
(2) DOE
crede
information system owners may issue and manage
ntials for authentication ONLY when:
(a) The individual does not possess or have access to one of the
credentials in 2b(1)(a); or
(b) The DOE information system requires individuals to authenticate
with a credential in addition to the credentials in 2b(1)(a).
3. DOE FACILITIES.
a. Access control decisions are based on risk management principles as required by
DOE O 473.3, Protection Program Operations dated 6-29-11 and DOE O
470.4B, Safeguards and Security Program, dated 7-21-11, or their successors.
b. Contractors must recognize the following credentials as an acceptable credential
for verifying a person's identity as part of the site’s physical access procedure:
(1) An HSPD-12 Credential for DOE employees and contractor
employees;
(2) An HSPD-12 Credential for Federal employees and contractor
employees from other government agencies; and
(3) A PIV-I credential.
c. Automated access control systems should obtain authoritative data for DOE
employees and contractor employees external to the site from the EIMS offered
by DOE.
d. DOE O 473.3 contains the requirements for access control systems.
