Description
HID Global’s pivCLASS readers deliver exceptional security solutions for facilities, ensuring compliance with FIPS 201 standards. This comprehensive lineup includes various options such as contactless, contact plus contactless, and biometric readers. They are engineered to integrate seamlessly with the pivCLASS Authentication Module (PAM) to satisfy the assurance level requirements set forth by NIST Special Publication 800-116 and the federal government’s FICAM E-PACS guidelines. Most pivCLASS readers offer versatility by operating in either Wiegand or PAM mode. Wiegand mode allows deployment without a PAM, facilitating a smooth transition to FIPS 201 compliance. Transitioning from Wiegand mode to PAM mode can be easily accomplished in the field by reconfiguring the reader firmware.
