Products

The FICAM testing program – also known as the Federal Information Processing Standard 201 (FIPS 201) Evaluation Program – tests commercial products used in Personal Identity Verification (PIV) credentialing systems, physical access control systems (PACS), and public key infrastructures (PKI). These products have been tested and approved to ensure you’re buying products that provide value, and work well together.

The Approved Products List (APL) contains the official list of these tested products. There are currently two approved product cagtegories:

1. PIV Cards
2. Physical Access Control Systems

Products and services that have lost their certification are placed on the Removed Products List (RPL). Contact us if you’re unsure if a product is fit for government use.
