Custom ID Cards

Whether you manage an office or a gym with paying memberships, you’ll need ID cards to control who can enter safely. With an HID direct-to-card printer in your business, you’ll be able to print IDs with custom holograms right as you need them. HID software allows you to customize each badge’s permissions for your unique security needs, and cloud-based ID card printing makes the process speedy. So, when there’s a new member or person on your staff, you’ll be able to encode a card for them the day it’s needed. An efficient card system means you’ll never have to worry about suspicious people slipping through the entrances.

Biometric Authentication

You can take your access control a step further with HID’s biometric authentication technology. Their single finger readers provide a fast and accurate fingerprint capture. For high-security areas of your establishment, authenticating someone’s physical identity is the safest way to ensure information does not get into the wrong hands. For citizen identification in government spaces, HID also manufacturers iris scanners and palm print scanners to effectively validate each visitor’s identity.

Mobile Access

Another means to check identities is through user’s mobile devices, an especially handy solution for offices and schools. HID Mobile Access is used in high-profile establishments across the county, including the Netflix headquarters. People entering your building won’t need to carry an ID card, just their phone, which they probably already have in their pocket or purse. Staff will intuitively tap their phone with the app open onto a mobile-enhanced reader and continue walking through the activated door or turnstile.

It’s simple to get started with HID Mobile Access, too. You’ll send an access user code to the new member’s phone number, from which they will download the app and enroll in mobile ID. From there, they’re ready to go! Managing and revoking credentials can be done through the cloud, too, making it simple for your staff to manage permissions.
