Smart Card Readers

The pivCLASS® solutions portfolio includes a broad selection of contactless, contact and contactless, and biometric readers. These readers are designed to work with the pivCLASS Authentication Module (PAM) to meet the assurance level requirements defined in the NIST Special Publication 800-116 and in the federal government's ICAM E-PACS document. The pivCLASS readers can be deployed in either "Wiegand" mode PAM mode. Wiegand mode is for use without a PAM. While this mode does not provide any strong authentication at the door it does provide a phased deployment capability to support transition to FIPS 201 compliance. Conversion from Wiegand mode to PAM mode can be done in the field by reconfiguring the reader firmware. Up to two pivCLASS readers can connect to a PAM via four-wire RS-485 connections, typically enabling facilities to re-use much of their existing wiring.

pivCLASS® READERS FOR "LIMITED" SECURITY AREAS ENABLE HIGH SECURITY, INTEROPERABILITY AND COMPLIANCE

• Part of an integrated solution from a single, trusted provider - Enables FIPS 201 compliance and follows NIST SP 800-116 guidelines and the TWIC Reader Specifcation.

• Contact reader solution for "Limited" security areas - Meets NIST's "Limited" security area assurance level requirements with two-factor authentication mode: PIV + PIN.

• Supports multiple card types - PIV, PIV-I, CAC, CIV (a.k.a., PIV-C), TWIC and FRAC, as well as iCLASS® and HID Prox cards for easy, phased transitions from legacy technology to new PKI-enabled smart cards.

HID Global pivCLASS® Government Solutions enable facilities to upgrade their existing physical access control system (PACS) to FIPS 201 compliance.

pivCLASS readers deliver the "Limited" assurance level as defned in NIST SP 800-116. These readers work with the pivCLASS Authentication Module to perform the following two-factor authentication mode:
