Overview

A Third-Party Credential (CAC, PIV, NGC OneBadge) is a smart card issued by the United States Department of Defense (DoD), NASA, or Northrup Grumman as a standard identification. It is also used for physical access to buildings, controlled spaces, and to gain access to computer networks and systems.

Exostar now accepts Third-Party Credentials as an acceptable digital credential to access applications and services behind Exostar's Managed Access Gateway (MAG) Platform. Only users invited by application owners to use 3rd-Party Credentials are able to use these credential types to access applications via MAG.
