WidePoint (WYY) announced a new contract award by an agency under the U.S. Department of Energy to deliver secure mobile authentication using WidePoint’s proprietary MobileAnchor platform. Under the one-year agreement, WidePoint will provide Derived Credentials on mobile devices, enabling agency personnel to securely authenticate to federal systems and applications in full compliance with FIPS 201 and NIST SP 800-157 guidelines.
