RFID Authentication

User identity verification across a wide range of access scenarios

RFID Intelligence is Everywhere

Radio frequency identification technology (RFID) is a technology we use all the time but don’t often think about because we don’t have to — it’s easy and efficient.

RFID-enabled identity authentication allows for an effortless, wireless exchange of information between devices. When RFID technology is embedded into a card, smartphone or wearable device, numerous use cases become possible. It allows for limitless applications, from building access (including doors, turnstiles and elevators) to time and attendance management (for onsite and remote workers) to contactless payments.

RFID-powered authentication gives users easy access to business systems they need — and nothing they don’t — with a single, simple credential.

Connected Workplace. Access Everywhere.

Fortify Your Digital Front With Passwordless Authentication

The practice of logging in to systems with a password is going the way of the dinosaur.

To battle criminals lurking around digital corners — and eliminate the bad habits humans repeat with weak, reused and poor password practices — organizations must evolve to apply stronger authentication measures as part of their digital defense strategy.
