The body must be 3-5 pages in length. Here are a few steps to get you started.

  • Introduction

The introduction should have some of the following elements, depending on the type of paper:  Start with an attention grabber: a short story, example, statistic, or historical context that introduces the paper topic.  Give an overview of any issues involved with the subject.  Define of any key terminology need to understand the topic.  Quote or paraphrase sources revealing the controversial nature of the subject. Highlight background information on the topic needed to understand the direction of the paper. Write an antithesis paragraph, presenting the primary opposing views (argumentative paper only)

In what type of situation would an authenticator app provide adequate two-factor authentication for federal government use? Provide rationale or a citation for your answer.

Discussion

The Personal Identity Verification (PIV) card is used in non-military government agencies for authentication and identification to gain access to systems, networks, and online resources. These cards, in combination with a personal identification number, meet two-factor requirements. PIV credentials also are designed to help reduce counterfeiting and are tamper-resistant.

An authenticator app, such as Google Authenticator, is another method to achieve two-factor authentication. It is a free app available for installation on mobile devices.

The U.S. federal government authorizes the use of PIVs as well as authenticator apps, depending on the circumstances.

Answer the following question(s):

  1. In what type of situation would an authenticator app provide adequate two-factor authentication for federal government use? Provide rationale or a citation for your answer.
  2. In what type of situation would a PIV be required for federal government use? Provide rationale or a citation for your answer.
