HID Global discusses what identity and access management means for organisations in today's convoluted digital world.

HID Global has introduced the OMNIKEY Secure Element, the first offering in its planned embedded and desktop reader portfolio.

This week, we speak to Bernard Evans, who is the sales director, physical identity access at HID Global.

With more than 30 years in the industry, HID Global is in a unique position to identify key enablers, disruptive events, and game-changing developments that will shape the security landscape in 2022.

Asia-Pacific is a leader in open banking, thanks to the region's extensive digital ecosystems and a willingness to share data. Both financial institutions and tech firms have developed data-sharing infrastructure, and adoption rates are high in many countries belonging to the region.

However, the biometrics market is expected to regain momentum with alternatives already beginning to find their feet.

One of the first lines of defence for large enterprises, universities and government organisations is the security ID card. But instances of counterfeit are rising, and a simple photo ID printed on a plain white plastic card has virtually no defence such attacks.

“The combination of HID IdenTrust digital certificates and the Keyfactor platform enables our enterprise customers to achieve frictionless management and deployment of digital certificates."

HID Global and VMware have teamed up to bring HID Mobile Access for opening buildings and doors to VMware Workspace ONE.

The acquisition of HydrantID will allow HID Global to offer enterprise customers a broader range of options, plus the flexibility and scalability of PKI-as-a-service.

Many organisations are looking to secure card issuance technology for the safest, most secure access and ID credentials, but selecting a provider can be overwhelming.

The HID goID Simple Verifier is a small device that can be used by anyone seeking to quickly verify the age of citizens carrying a HID goID mobile ID on their smartphones.

HID Global has introduced a new fingerprint reader to the Australian market, as biometric authentication becomes the fastest-growing segment in the access control market.

HID Global meets the most demanding requirements for security, quality, and effective program execution in today’s most complex ID programs.

"Despite the benefits of biometrics, there have been impediments to its broader enterprise adoption."

While the benefits of smart cards are well known, choosing the right printer can be overwhelming - here's a guide with 10 points to look out for.

Many smartcards are still issued from standalone printers tied to a dedicated PC workstation, which creates challenges and unnecessarily bottlenecks the process.

HID Global has unveiled a new ID card retransfer printer that truly sets the bar for speed by halving the current industry standard.

The company’s new offering brings the security of physical authentication to Android and iOS with near-field communication technology.

“We want our clients to have the best experience here. This is the reason why we chose to work with HID Global solutions."

Smart cards are easy to carry around, can be programmed and reprogrammed remotely, and offer a secure way for students and teachers alike to access campus facilities.

SMBs are 4x more likely to be victims of crime than homes are, a statistic HID Global is looking to tackle with its latest security solution.

In addition to taking care of cybersecurity, IT departments are having to adapt to spearhead issues set forth by the physical security dept.

We caught up with HID Global’s Harm Radstaak, who was in Melbourne for the ASIAL Security Exhibition & Conference last week.
