A Note from Acting Assistant Commissioner Greg Hogan
Dear Login.gov Partners,
Login.gov is central to how people access critical services. Strengthening and expanding that access in a way that is secure, efficient, and accountable to taxpayers is a top priority for this Administration. With those values in mind, I’m honored to step into the role of Acting Assistant Commissioner for the Login.gov program.
I recognize that leadership changes can raise questions. My approach to this role will focus on continuity, transparency, and delivering results that matter to you, our partners, and the public. You can expect clear communication, steady execution, and a continued emphasis on meeting the needs of the people we serve together.
As I step into this new role, I want to thank Matt Pritchard for his leadership during his time in the acting director role. His steady approach helped maintain momentum and strong partner support, positioning us well for what comes next. Matt now returns to his prior role as Login.gov deputy, which will now be as Deputy Assistant Commissioner. Matt and the entire Login.gov team are deeply committed to secure, accessible, and user-centered digital identity and I’m excited to have the opportunity to work alongside them.
In the months ahead, we will be rolling out product updates to improve the user experience, strengthen our anti-fraud efforts, and expand partner support. We will share more details soon and look forward to working closely with you as these enhancements are introduced.
Thank you for your continued partnership.
Greg Hogan
Acting Assistant Commissioner
Next ConMon Meeting
The next Agency Collaborative Continuous Monitoring (ConMon) meeting is planned for July 2026. The goals of the ConMon include sharing Plans of Action and Milestones and reviewing Deviation and Significant Change Requests. These meetings, which now occur quarterly, offer partners the opportunity to collaborate and help us make risk-based decisions together.
If you or your team would like to attend, please contact partners@login.gov.
Now live: One IAL2 identity-verified account per user
As part of our ongoing work to align with NIST Revision 4 standards, we recently began to enforce a policy where users may maintain only one identity-verified account at the IAL2 level across all IAL2 applications. The duplicate account resolution flow is operating successfully with minimal user impact. For questions about this policy, please connect with us at partners@login.gov.
NIST/Login.gov mDL Demonstration Project Moves into its Next Phase
We recently completed the development work for our mobile driver’s license (mDL) demonstration project together with the NIST National Cybersecurity Center of Excellence. During this demonstration project, we will complete usability testing and a test-run for our future production mDL implementation. NIST is expected to publish results in the coming weeks, which we will also share with our partners. The flow used for this demonstration is for testing purposes and may not reflect the precise flow Login.gov will use for mDLs. We are still on track to accept mDLs later this year. For more information about the collaboration, visit the NIST mDL website.
NIST 800-63 Revision 4 Update
As part of our ongoing commitment to trusted digital identity assurance, we are pleased to announce that independent third-party assessment activities aligned with NIST 800-63 Revision 4 Digital Identity Guidelines are now underway through the Kantara Initiative.
Though Kantara is currently still finalizing its assessment process following the release of the new NIST 800-63-4 guidelines, Login.gov is participating early in this work to help establish transparent and repeatable industry assurance practices. We will continue to proactively communicate as assessment activities progress and as additional implementation guidance becomes available through NIST.
In addition to these efforts, we are also in the process of pursuing our renewal certification for NIST SP 800-63-3.
We appreciate your continued partnership as we work together to advance secure and reliable digital identity.
