Federal Public Key Infrastructure Steering Committee

These meeting minutes are 2 1/2 years old, but it gives an interesting perspective. It discusses forming an interagency body for issues associated with "The Next Generation" common policy framework for Federal identity management that will be largely PKI based. It also discusses a common policy for physical and logical credentialing of Federal employees is needed. This requires a credential (smart card) policy. As well, bridge between the Federal PKI and external organizations, bridge between enterprise PKIs withing government, and enable external PKI interoperability within the Federal e-Authentication gateway (a relying party)
