Identiv and Zwipe Partner to Provide Biometric Access Control Card Services
September 14 2017 - 9:00AM
Identiv, Inc. (NASDAQ:INVE) today announced that the company
has partnered with biometric technology company Zwipe for access
control card formatting services. Identiv’s U.S.-based card service
bureau is programming the radio frequency identification (RFID)
chips in Zwipe’s biometric credential line, providing all physical
access control system (PACS) formats from Identiv’s portfolio.
Identiv will present samples of Zwipe’s biometric cards during ASIS
International 63rd Annual Seminar and Exhibits (ASIS 2017) on
September 26 – 28, 2017 in Dallas, Texas. In order to encode its
biometric cards in a wide variety of formats, Zwipe connected with
Identiv. Identiv’s encoding solutions are fast, flexible, and far
less expensive than competing providers. Through this
collaboration, Zwipe customers can now order Zwipe access control
products pre-formatted with the most popular 125 KHz and 13.56 MHz
smart card formatting schemes, enabling seamless integration with
end-customer systems without the need for additional card
formatting services by the integrator. “Identiv is seeing strong
growth in the interest for biometric-enabled access control
solutions,” said Stephane Ardiley, Identiv Director Product
Management. “Zwipe’s credential products are very user friendly and
offer a fast, efficient way for customers to upgrade to a biometric
security level in their access control installations without the
need to change their readers and back-end system. We see a good
opportunity for Identiv by supplying formatting services for Zwipe
cards, which we believe meets a strong, growing need in the
marketplace.” Zwipe’s biometric credentials are delivered as credit
card-sized cards with powerful, embedded biometric sensors for user
enrollment and identity verification. After successful
authentication via fingerprint, the RFID interface of the card is
enabled, allowing the card to behave like a typical access control
credential. “We are very excited to work with Identiv, as it allows
us to address a large segment of customers for the first time — not
just in the U.S. but across the world — thanks to the company’s
expansive customer network,” said Einar Boije, Zwipe SVP of Access
Control. “With Identiv’s capacity, we can now provide formatting
services alongside our access control product lines, making it that
much easier to integrate and deploy the world’s smallest biometric
reader.” Visit Identiv at booth 3617 during ASIS 2017 to see
samples of Zwipe’s biometric credentials. To schedule a meeting
