Higher Security In The Workplace

By Marcus Brigg


Every HID card has a magnetic strip where all the information is stored. That has a role of a key, and serves to open doors. Access control panel on the doors works in conjunction with an HID card. The codes that HID proximity cards consist of are sequences of binary numbers which are ones and zeros. When one swipes or inserts the card into a control panel, the card is decoded, and it's decided whether the cardholder will be granted entry or now.

Every HID card has a magnetic strip where all the information is stored. That has a role of a key, and serves to open doors. Access control panel on the doors and HID cards work in conjunction. Embedded sequences of binary numbers which consist of ones and zeroes are codes on the HID proximity cards. Whether the card holder will get access to a restricted area or not is decided when the card is swiped or inserted in a control panel and decoded.

If entering critical areas of the building or networks of your company still depends on using keys and passwords, maybe the time is right to look into the latest technology available. Not only does it increase productivity, it also keeps security for your staff and company with an HID card.

There are HID cards which allow a photo and printed information of who the cardholder is, so the card can be a visual identification as well. These HID cards are one of the more popular. If some security checks are manned by real people, this works well. One HID proximity card can have to features, which serve dual purpose, and it is cost effective.

TO make HID proximity cards one needs to have ID printers, which have to have the encoding software and the high quality resolutions needed for this type of printing. The ID printer takes HID cards from a cartridge. Cartridges can be reloaded when the cards run out. Different types of HID proximity cards can be bought on the market.

An HID proximity card can also be a no contact card, where it doesn't have to be swiped at the control panel.

Your company will become a more secure place thanks to the convenience and effectiveness of the HID cards. Keep your company secure and save your money with HID proximity cards which are both simple to make and cost effective over the long term. If you think it's time for your company to go into the twenty first century, then embrace the ease, reliability and effective security that an HID proximity card can provide to you and to your business.
