• Part of an integrated solution from a single trusted provider - Enables FIPS 201 compliance and follows NIST SP 800-116 guidelines and the TWIC Reader Specifcation.

• Contactless reader solution for "Controlled" security areas - Meets NIST's "Controlled" security area assurance level requirements with a single-factor authentication mode: CHUID or CAK.

• Supports multiple card types - PIV PIV-I CAC CIV (a.k.a. PIV-C) TWIC and FRAC as well as iCLASS® and HID Prox cards for easy phased transitions from legacy technology to new PKI-enabled smart cards.

HID Global pivCLASS® Government Solutions enable facilities to upgrade their existing physical access control system (PACS) to FIPS 201 compliance.

The pivCLASS contactless readers that deliver the "Controlled" assurance level (as defned in NIST SP 800-116) work with the pivCLASS Authentication Module to perform the following single-factor authentication modes:

• CHUID Authentication
• CAK Authentication
• Supports Multiple Card Types
• NIST's Controlled Security
• 8-Color LED and Audio Beeper
