The profile supports SP 800-73-3 objects, including PIV Discovery, Iris, Key History and Key Management Key objects. It can accommodate 2048-bit PKI keys and the full set of PIV objects is loaded by ActivID CMS (PIV mandatory and optional objects).

In addition to the card pre-issuance keys, the following keys must be present in the HSM A Hardware Security Module (HSM) securely stores secret key material. They are similar to large-storage, multisession smart cards. However, unlike smart cards, they are used mainly on the server side of a system. for profile issuance. As these keys are post-issuance keys, they should be generated in the HSM:
-
MK_SD_ACE_AES_OPSC_1_ENC, _MAC, _KEK, PIV_CARD_ADMINISTRATOR_KEY_9B_AES_16 (16-byte AES keys)
