Vue d'ensemble

Nearly all federal and governmental agencies, both civilian and defense, trust RSA to secure the most critical systems—from civilian compliance mandates to DOD enforcement of phishing-resistant MFA requirements. Whether protecting classified information or securing federal networks, RSA® ID Plus pour le gouvernement is your go-to solution for robust, compliant authentication.

Integrating the Clé RSA iShield 2 with RSA ID Plus for Government provides U.S. federal agencies, contractors, and systems integrators with yet another method of secure authentication. Employing a FIPS 140-3 Level 3 certified cryptographic module (certificate #4679) that supports both the FIDO2 and PIV Smart Card standards, the RSA iShield Key 2 FIPS models ensure that government systems are protected and compliant with White House Executive Order (EO) 14028, OMB M-22-09, and OMB M-24-14, which require federal agencies to secure cloud services, develop and implement Zero Trust Architecture (ZTA), and deploy phishing-resistant multi-factor authentication (MFA). Together, the iShield Key 2 FIPS and the RSA ID Plus platform support these efforts, delivering robust security compliance by default with solutions that are secure by design.

One key. Every clearance level. Every mandate.

The RSA iShield Key 2 Series delivers secure, passwordless authentication aligned with NIST digital identity guidance and federal phishing-resistant MFA initiatives. The solution supports FIDO2 passkeys, OATH HOTP OTP, and PIV smart cards, providing flexible and resilient authentication across a wide range of government use cases. Federal agencies can rely on RSA to secure access for remote workers, personnel operating in classified environments, and privileged administrators accessing critical systems.

  • FIPS 140-3 Level 3 certified: The iShield Key 2 FIPS employs a FIPS 140-3 certified cryptographic module (Overall level: 3, and a Physical Security level: 4, certificate #4679), one of the highest levels of cryptographic certification available. FIPS 140-3 certification is now required for all new federal deployments, with NIST setting September 21, 2026 as the date after which FIPS 140-2 modules move to Historical status.
  • No hardware recalls: Secure, field-updatable firmware lets users apply new features and bug fixes to deployed units without replacing and re-registering hardware authenticators.
  • 300 clés d'accès pour les résidents : Holds 300 FIDO passkeys and 24 smart card certificates—three times the passkey capacity of leading alternatives.
  • Phishing-resistant: FIDO passkeys and PIV provide strong, phishing-resistant authentication, protecting federal systems from credential-based attacks.
  • Smart card functionality: PIV support offers secure, tamper-resistant storage for digital certificates and credentials.
  • Compatible with both legacy and modern systems, providing broad support for all agency applications.
  • Protection complète de l'identité : Easily integrates with the FedRAMP-authorized RSA ID Plus for Government, giving you full control over your IAM strategy. Enhances federal-private sector collaboration, ensuring secure access and compliance with federal mandates.
  • Utilisation flexible : FIDO passkey and PIV smart card are available via both USB and contactless NFC. OATH HOTP OTP is available via USB.
  • Ruggedized form factor: Fully molded, robust, and waterproof—built to withstand the environments federal personnel actually work in.
RSA iShield Key 2 benefits

RSA ID Plus and the RSA iShield Key 2 provide key benefits to federal agencies, including:

  • Compliance with federal standards: FIPS 140-3 Level 3 certified cryptographic module (certificate #4679), meeting the highest U.S. government requirements for cryptographic security. Aligns with EO 14028, OMB M-22-09, OMB M-24-14, and NIST SP 800-63B AAL3 hardware authentication guidance.
  • A capable alternative to CAC for modern federal environments: The RSA iShield Key 2 FIPS supports PIV smart card, FIDO2, OATH HOTP OTP, and multi-protocol authentication—meeting the same use cases required of hardware authenticators across federal civilian and defense environments. RSA ID Plus, already trusted by 90% of U.S. federal agencies, delivers the identity platform to match.
  • Protection de l'identité "Zero Trust" : RSA ID Plus integrates a range of identity security capabilities—including contextual, risk-based authentication, mobile passkeys, and ID verification—to advance ZTA and protect every component of your organization.
  • Seamless passwordless experience: With FIDO2 certification, the RSA iShield Key 2 series supports a secure and frictionless passwordless journey across all federal systems.
