What is HSPD-12?
In August of 2004, the President issued Homeland Security Presidential Directive 12 (HSPD-12). This Directive called for a government-wide identification standard for people gaining physical access to federal buildings and information systems. The HSPD-12 Directive also set out to establish a uniform Personal Identity Verification Card (PIV Card) that would operate across federal agencies. NIH compliance with this directive is mandatory.
