The TrustAlert™ Credential Validation System (CVS) is capable of providing PIN verification, private key challenge-response, biometric match and display of the photograph from a smart card in less than 10 seconds. In an on-line scenario the CVS can also perform a certificate validation check using OCSP. The TrustAlert system includes both hardware and software integrated into a simple to use and powerful tool to capture CAC and PIV credential data for enrollment into a relying system, granting access and maintaining a repository of credential data. TrustAlert can be set to perform periodic validation checks and alert the relying system of certificates that have been revoked.





TrustAlert can improve enrollment efficiency in office environments, be transported into the field for advanced enrollment or even be used in an incident theater to both enroll and validate credentials against an access list for authorized entry.

The CVS is configurable by the administrative officer to operate in On-Line or Off-Line modes and in Attended or Unattended environments. Business rules can also be set to allow for tolerance in granting access depending on the authentication mechanism. The solution can be deployed in a variety of scenarios:

Direct Enrollment of CAC & PIV Credentials into a PACS:

Selected data is read directly into the TrustAlert Credential Repository and then exported via XML into a compatible PACS such as the BridgePoint TrustZone System. The System can then perform regular certificate status checking and update the PACS.

Remote Off-Line or On-Line Enrollment:

The system can be transported into the field to capture specified credential data from future system users for advanced enrollment. Data can be uploaded when on-line connectivity is established or transported via a secure FIPS-140 approved USB token.

Enhancing Attended (Guard) Visual Identification:

TrustAlert significantly increases the confidence level of a guard station by displaying the results of a PIN entry, biometric scan and challenge to the private key. Pin + Bio + PKI result in high-assurance as set forth in NIST SP-800-116. Access lists can be loaded into the system for checking authorization to enter. Access audit logs can be also captured.

1st Responder Emergency Check Point System:

In an incident scenario, the TrustAlert system can be deployed into a disaster zone to function as a 1st Responder Enroller or authorization checker. The System is compact, weighs less than 18 pounds including the carrying case and batteries, can operate on battery power and support cellular communication to check certificate status. A durable hand-held touch-screen tablet PC can be used by a security officer to control access through a checkpoint while the user enters their PIV card, PIN and biometric into the reader.
