Intercede Announces the Most Comprehensive Software Platform for PIV, PIV-I and 
                PIV-C Identity and Credential Management Projects 
Highlights: 
·    Latest version of MyID PIV now available  - MyID PIV 8 SR1 
·    Based on the most recent PIV Standards 
·    Levers MyID's interoperability to exploit convergence between Federal and 
non-Federal identity and credential management projects 
·    Proven Deployments 
 
London, United Kingdom, 15 July 2010 - Intercede (London Stock Exchange AIM: 
IGP) today announced the release of MyID PIV Version 8 Service Release 1 (SR1) 
for US Federal, State and Local Government. This latest version of MyID PIV 
supports the most recent Federal Information Processing Standard 201 (FIPS 201) 
updates and is in use and available today. 
Intercede already has more than 10 US Federal Government Agencies already using 
MyID  PIV 8 and we anticipate that most of these customers will be contracting 
to upgrade to the new SR1 version over the coming months. The benefit to 
Agencies is that SR1 will enable them to maintain compliance with the recently 
modified SP800-73-3 standard as well as facilitating the use of the latest 
Microsoft platforms. 
MyID PIV 8 SR1 also builds on Intercede's substantial experience in supporting 
non-Federal customers who need to issue identity credentials that are 
interoperable with the US Federal PIV systems (PIV-I). The programs include 
Transportation Worker Identity Credential (TWIC), First Responder Authentication 
Credential (FRAC) and Airport Credentials Interoperability Solution (ACIS). 
Intercede has already won the TWIC system, has secured a growing number of early 
FRAC deployments and anticipates participating in the ACIS program. 
In addition, MyID PIV 8 SR1 supports private sector US government contractor 
organisations that wish to benefit from issuing credentials that are compatible 
with PIV compliant security hardware and electronic card content . These 
solutions are termed PIV compatible (PIV-C). Intercede is already supplying 
PIV-C solutions to Lockheed Martin (150,000 employees) and a major US government 
integrator/consultancy group in the DC area. Intercede anticipates deploying 
PIV-C to other major customers later this year. 
MyID PIV was the first card management system to be listed on the FIPS 201 
approved products list and is the only PIV identity and credential management 
platform that provides a single point for registration, identity 
checking/vetting, issuance, lifecycle management and auditing/reporting. Two of 
the key advantages which are unique to MyID PIV are a single point of revocation 
for PIV identity cards and other credentials (e.g. RSA SecureID tokens) and a 
single point of auditing and reporting across all stages (registration, identity 
checking/vetting and issuance) of the PIV card lifecycle. 
What's New in MyID 8 PIV SR1 
·     Support for PIV-I and PIV-C 
·     Support for the latest standards for PIV, PIV-I and PIV-C  (SP800-73-3) 
·     Automatic on-card recovery of up to 20 historical encryption certificates 
·     Support for the next generation PIV Cards including Oberthur, Gemalto, G&D 
 and SafeNet 
·     Usability Enhancements for PIV, PIV-I  and PIV-C 
·     Extended Microsoft Platform Support 
Intercede President and Chief Executive, Richard Parris said, "This latest 
update to the MyID software platform continues Intercede's momentum as the 
premium supplier of PIV management systems to the US government and related 
markets. While our competitors have been talking about their aspirations in 
these sectors, Intercede has been steadily securing market share by delivering 
quality products and services that enable our customers to meet their program 
plans.  As the next wave of PIV procurements commences, both inside and outside 
of government, Intercede is well positioned to extend existing deployments and 
to win business from new federal, state and private customers".
