The pivCLASS® solutions portfolio includes a broad selection of contact, contactless and biometric pivCLASS® Readers for agencies to meet to meet the requirements for any assurance level and the NIST SP 800-116 guidelines.
The readers work with the pivCLASS® Authentication Module (PAM) to meet requirements at any assurance level. pivCLASS readers also provide fully functional backward compatibility with existing iCLASS® and HID Prox readers, easing the transition from legacy cards to PKI-based credentials. 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.
Main Features
The RK40 and RPK40 utilize the pivCLASS Authentication Module (PAM) to perform cryptographic operations required to pass FICAM's E-PACS testing
Security critical operations are performed within the secure perimeter, rather than on the attack side of the door, increasing security and reader affordability.
Maximum flexibility is achieved through in-field sidecar expansion to add a contact interface, an LCD to display messages to the cardholder and a biometric sensor.
Supports a phased approach to FICAM compliance. Can be used as a standalone reader to read legacy and FIPS 201 type smart cards. PAMs can be added later to achieve FICAM compliance by providing strong multifactor authentication.
Ideal for "Uncontrolled" areas where access control is desired but strong authentication FICAM compliance is not required.
