LEGIC showing latest applications at CeBit

Tuesday, February 10, 2009

LEGIC Identsystems Ltd. will present some extensions to its technology at the CeBit Conference, March 3-8 in Hanover, Germany. LEGIC is also demonstrating the gains in efficiency that may be achieved through the use of a contactless multi-application card

LEGIC will present a selection of the latest solutions for various applications in the business and leisure sectors, as well as for public institutions – such as access control, time and attendance, cashless payment, printing/copying or IT access.


LEGIC is additionally presenting a series of new applications to its open technology platform LEGIC advant. The core of the technology is formed by the unique physical security concept Master-Token System Control. This guarantees security not via passwords, but via a genetic code which contains the authorization to read or write data. LEGIC is also showing how existing passes can easily be expanded with additional applications to achieve cost savings.

With the LEGIC advant card-in-card technology, the company is presenting the possibility of easily integrating LEGIC applications into contactless or dual interface smart cards from third party suppliers as a “virtual” transponder. Logical and physical access can thus be combined on a single smart card chip. In this way mobile phones can function as an access control credential, or credit cards as multifunctional employee cards. [end]
