Description
HID Global’s portfolio of pivCLASS readers offers an extensive range of contactless, contact plus contactless, and biometric reader solutions. These advanced readers are engineered to seamlessly integrate with the pivCLASS Authentication Module (PAM), achieving compliance with the assurance level requirements as specified in the NIST Special Publication 800-116 and the federal government’s FICAM E-PACS guidelines. The pivCLASS readers provide flexible deployment options, operating in either Wiegand mode or PAM mode. In Wiegand mode, the readers can function independently of a PAM, offering a phased implementation approach for transitioning to FIPS 201 compliance. Transitioning from Wiegand mode to PAM mode is easily accomplished in the field by updating the reader’s firmware. With a focus on high quality and robust features, pivCLASS readers deliver exceptional value for securing facilities and ensuring organizational compliance with FIPS 201 standards.
