HID Global showcase its secure digital keys and identity credentials for mobile access at ASIS International

HID Global will focus on its innovations in mobile access control, including mobile keys to create use and manage secure identity solutions via its iCLASS Seos credentials that can be embedded in Near Field Communications (NFC) enabled smartphones and its iCLASS SE platform readers.

The key focus will be the convergence of physical access and IT security solutions by demonstrating how the same mobile access key can facilitate access from the door to data.

"HID Global is very excited to be showing our award-winning iCLASS SE platform for secure mobile access control that demonstrates our leading capabilities, at the ASIS International, Middle East and Security Conference and Exhibition. As a leading international end-user conference in its fourth year in the Middle East, it provides us with an excellent and robust platform to interact and meet with end-users and industry professionals," said Serra Luck, Director of Mobile Access Solutions with HID Global.

"We will be available to meet stakeholders who are interested in implementing mobile access control for physical access and IT security and assist them in addressing key secure identity challenges with our proven solutions," Serra added.
