Description
### Advanced Security Solutions with pivCLASS Readers for Controlled Areas
– **Integrated Security System**: These readers are part of a comprehensive access control solution that ensures compliance with FIPS 201 standards, following NIST SP 800-116 guidelines and meeting the TWIC Reader Specification.
– **Field-Upgradable Design**: The readers can be enhanced on-site to achieve higher assurance levels through additional contact or contact-plus-biometric modules.
– **Versatile Transitional Readers**: Designed to support multiple credential types, including PIV, PIV-I, CAC, CIV, TWIC, FRAC, iCLASS®, and HID Prox® cards, facilitating smooth transitions from legacy technologies to modern PKI-enabled smart cards.
– **Contactless Keypad Reader for Less Secure Areas**: Ideal for implementing a “PIN to PACS” method by supporting both traditional and FIPS-201 compliant cards.
HID Global’s pivCLASS Government Solutions help facilities upgrade their physical access control systems (PACS) to comply with FIPS 201/FICAM standards without a complete system overhaul. The RK40 and RPK40 readers cater to various use cases, ensuring full FICAM compliance.
– **Flexible Transitional Reader Setup**: These readers function independently to process legacy iCLASS and HID prox cards alongside FIPS 201 cards, channeling card data directly to the access control system. With the integration of pivCLASS Registration Engine and Certification Manager software, they enable a seamless transition to complete FICAM compliance, also offering a cost-effective solution for minimal security doors requiring basic access control.
– **FICAM Compliant Authentication**: Achieving FICAM compliance necessitates the inclusion of the pivCLASS Authentication Module (PAM) for robust single-factor authentication. This mode supports CHUID +VIS and Card Authentication Key (CAK) methods in alignment with NIST Special Publication 800-116.
– **Two-Factor Strong Authentication**: By adding the HID pivCLASS contact reader module, the system includes a contact card reader and an informative LCD. It supports CHUID + VIS and CAK authentication modes over both contactless and contact interfaces. Additionally, it provides PKI + PIN authentication with match-on-card functionality via the contact interface.
– **Three-Factor Strong Authentication**: The HID pivCLASS contact plus biometric module further enhances security with an integrated biometric sensor. This setup supports CHUID + VIS, CAK, and PKI + PIN + BIO authentication, ensuring comprehensive security over contactless and contact interfaces.
