2019: HID Global iClass SE RB25F

In April, 2019 the HID Global company provided the fingerprint reader combining processing of credentials from the multispectral visualization of HID patented by technology that promotes application of biometric data.

Sityvatel of fingerprints of iCLASS SE RB25F provides efficiency of capture of images and comparison of fingerprints within a second, thereby considerably reducing delays which were a permanent problem of biometric solutions earlier. The previous generation of biometric solutions for access control were often used with the reduced security threshold as the existing technology of image processing led to incorrect processing of fingerprints and emergence of long queues.

"In view of the growing security risks of the organization, biometric authentication is one of the most fast-growing segments in the access control market — Stephen Carney, the marketing vice president of products, solutions for control of physical access of HID Global considers. — The combination of highly reliable multispectral Lumidigm technology and reliable construction of the reader to IP67 to the anti-vandal rating of IK09 allows customers to unroll solutions for authentication on fingerprints in a broad spectrum of real environmental conditions. The reader is also configured on site on network and is intended for simplification of transition from traditional solutions for reading of fingerprints".

The technology of multispectral visualization of HID allows to receive images both from a surface, and from under the surface of skin in order that it was possible to read out all types of fingerprints of people of any age in cold, dry, dirty, wet and other difficult environmental conditions. Reliable detection of counterfeits allows the reader iCLASS SE RB25F to verify in real time authenticity of prints, including their accessory to the living person who physically is present at an authentication point.

For ensuring the maximum security the reader includes the built-in optical protection against unauthorized access and supports the Open Supervised Device Protocol (OSDP) protocol and also HID Seos technology for multilevel authentication between the reader and credentials.

Administrators of security systems can load the free HID Biometric Manager software product for setup and control of one or several readers iCLASS SE RB25F. The client architecture of HID Biometric Manager based on the server and the browser, is ideal for registration of fingerprints of users (both for check 1:1, and for identification 1: N), purpose of access rights and accomplishment of many other functions. The complex tool can be also used for safe registration of all events of doors where readers, and for remote update of readers in operating conditions through the TCP/IP connection were installed.

The certified in the main regions of the world and having several versions of the interface for different system architecture, new iCLASS SE RB25F can be used with all popular industry standards of high-frequency accounting technologies (including the mobile identifiers HID Mobile Access, Seos, iCLASS SE, iCLASS, MIFARE DESFire, MIFARE Classic).

HID Global iClass SE R90

In product assortment of HID Global company in September, 2015 there were readers iClass SE R90 which interact with smart cards at a frequency of 13.56 MHz, provide identification range to 400 mm and support technology of enciphering of SIO using digital signatures for data protection from making changes and cloning. The new reader of distant action can work with smart cards of different formats, including iClass SE and iClass Seos and to transfer data to the controller on protocols of Wiegand. Besides, HID iClass SE R90 uses a method of intellectual energy management and can execute bilateral data exchange with the controller under the OSDP protocol.

The strong body from polycarbonate with degree vlago-and dust protections of IP65 allows to operate the new reader in street conditions at external temperatures from -35 °C to +65 °C. For simplification of identification passenger and trucks at entrance/departure from the parking it is recommended to install not one reader of distant action, and two, but at different height. At the same time for reduction of electricity consumption up to 50% of R90 allows to activate the mode of intellectual energy management. The additional comfort of distant identification is provided with the LED indicator which informs the driver on a current status of the device.

Unlike the popular readers HID iClass SE R10-R40, the new R90 device provides the big range of reading of smart cards which is 400 mm for models of the iClass SE format to 5 times. Thanks to it, the reader of distant action can be used as the instrument of identification of users on entrances and departures from automobile parkings and in territories of industrial facilities. It should be noted that HID iClass SE R90 is mounted on objects similar to RFID models of distant action of the previous generations therefore passing the operating devices to more perfect control system of access it is possible just to replace with new highly protected.

High safety of data transmission between the reader iClass SE R90 and smart cards is provided by a multiple model of enciphering of SIO (Secure Identity Object). A core of SIO is the ciphered identification code of the carrier which in case of unauthorized interception looks as a set of accidental characters. In addition to it, data in SIO are protected by the digital signature thanks to what the reader of distant action can verify their authenticity and reveal possible changes. Because SIO can be placed on different carriers, as identifiers of a system of distant action based on R90 and other HID iClass SE devices of series R not only smart cards, but also mobile phones with the NFC chip (Near Field Communication) can be used.

The compatibility with smart cards of different formats does the reader R90 universal. It is not tied strictly to any technology of identification therefore "sees" different smart cards, including the iClass SE, DESFire SE EV and Mifare SE models of the last generation. During the work with cards of these standards the reader of distant action can transfer their unique codes to the controller in the Wiegand format. It is important that the sizes of the iClass SE R90 body correspond to standard mounting boxes which are used in the majority of the countries of the world thanks to what will install these devices of distant action rather simply and quickly.

As an option the reader R90 can keep in bidirectional contact with the ACS controller using the OSDP protocol (Open Supervised Device Protocol) which increases safety of data transmission between devices. Bilateral data exchange within the "reader of distant action — the ACS controller" system provides access control several advantages as provides effective condition monitoring of all reader devices in real time. Moreover, at the organization of the network ACS all information from the reader of distant action is transferred to the central server.
