Government ID, Smart Cards, Identification and Authentication

Entrust provides INTERPOL officers with global ID cards

Tuesday, June 15, 2010

Entrust has announced the delivery of multipurpose global ID cards to INTERPOL officers to expedite uninterrupted travel on missions in the pursuit of transnational criminals.

The solution consists of the INTERPOL Global Smart eID & eVisa, which provides secure access to INTERPOL facilities and networks.

Officers only need this single multipurpose smart card for secure access to restricted buildings, computers, e-mail and secure document-signing, as well as unimpeded border crossings.

INTERPOL says Endtrusts solution will enable them and other law enforcement agencies to “work more freely, effectively and efficiently in protecting personnel, facilities and digital assets in the pursuit of transnational criminals.” [end]
