HID Global's pivCLASS Government Solutions enable facilities to upgrade their existing physical access control systems (PACS) to achieve FIPS 201/FICAM compliance without the need to rip-and-replace their existing system. The RK40 and RPK40 are designed to support multiple use cases leading to full FICAM compliance.
Three-factor strong authentication can be achieved by adding the HID pivCLASS contact plus biometric reader sidecar. In addition to a contact card reading slot this sidecar also provides a biometric sensor.
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. PAM scan be added later to achieve FICAM compliance by providing strong multi-factor authentication.
Ideal for "Uncontrolled" areas where access control is desired but strong authentication FICAM compliance is not required. For the following security areas per NIST SP 800-116:"Controlled" Areas "Uncontrolled" Areas "Exclusion" Areas "Limited" Areas
