Catcher Holdings announced an important feature enhancement to its CATCHER® family of command and control platforms with the addition of smart card readers provided by SCM Microsystems, Inc. The SCM technology is being integrated into both the CATCHER® Rhino and CATCHER® Grizzly integrated computer communications platforms, enabling the devices to read the Personal Identity Verification (PIV) card mandated under Homeland Presidential Directive 12 (HSPD-12), the Department of Defense Common Access Card (CAC), the First Responder Authentication Credential (FRAC) and Mifare-based cards. The readers meet both the ISO 14443 and ISO 7816 standards for contactless and contact smart card identify verification.
