Spacious. Innovative. Hospitality. #ThisIsWhyHotel WhyHotel operates “turn-key, pop-up hotels” out of the vacancy of newly built luxury apartments during the lease-up phase. Blurring the line between hospitality and home, WhyHotel’s model provides the value and space of a home-share and the consistency and service of a luxury hotel.

The Federation for Identity and Cross-Credentialing Systems (FiXs) is a coalition of commercial, government, and not-for-profit organizations whose mission is to establish and maintain a worldwide, interoperable identity and cross-credentialing network built on security, privacy, trust, standard operating rules, policies, and technical standards. The FiXs network verifies and authenticates the identity of personnel seeking to enter U.S. military installations and other government-controlled areas, as well as commercial sites tied to the network. Founded in 2004 and based in Fairfax, Virginia, FiXs was formed to pilot a federated identity transaction model and was incorporated as a not-for-profit corporation. A long-standing affiliation with the DoD credentialing program has enabled participating government organizations and industry members to establish secure and interoperable identity verification and authentication for secure facility and system access. FiXs provides a trusted mechanism for federated identity infrastructure within and between public and private sector organizations with accuracy and trust through the application of a Federated Trust Model. The network capabilities can be accessed worldwide, in remote or fixed environments, wired or wirelessly, and in real-time. A key component to the network integrity is its strong credential authentication and revocation processes, as governed by the FiXs operating rules. Modeled after the financial industry’s highly-secure and widely-accepted ATM approach, the FiXs network is a secure, scalable system that provides trusted, interoperable identity verification and credential authentication for network users accessing a range of government and commercial facilities. The FiXs network meets federally-mandated requirements, supports physical and logical access applications and integrates with an organization’s existing personnel system, while leveraging the network’s economies of scale.
