Description
HID Global offers a comprehensive selection of pivCLASS readers, catering to industry needs for contactless, dual-function (contact plus contactless), and biometric access control readers. These devices are engineered to integrate seamlessly with the pivCLASS Authentication Module (PAM) to fulfill the assurance level mandates specified in NIST Special Publication 800-116 and adhere to the federal government’s FICAM E-PACS guidelines. PivCLASS readers are versatile, supporting both Wiegand and PAM modes. Wiegand mode allows deployment without a PAM, facilitating a gradual transition towards FIPS 201 compliance. For those looking to upgrade, switching from Wiegand to PAM mode is straightforward and can be done on-site by adjusting the reader’s firmware. The advanced features and reliability of pivCLASS readers deliver superior solutions for facility security and ensure organizations achieve FIPS 201 compliance.
