Access may be denied to legitimate users if FICAM-approved third-party credentials are not accepted. This requirement typically applies to organizational information systems that are accessible to nonfederal government agencies and other partners. This allows federal government-relying parties to trust such credentials at their approved assurance levels. Third-party credentials are those credentials issued by nonfederal government entities approved by the Federal Identity, Credential, and Access Management (FICAM) Trust Framework Solutions initiative.
Note: This requirement is Not Applicable if ADFS is not being utilized. ADFS can be used to federate with approved third-party users.
