Zwipe, a global leader in biometric authentication technology, announced that HID Global's iCLASS® and 125kHz ProxCard® users can now easily integrate the Zwipe Access biometric card, eliminating the need to add biometric readers to an existing HID Global®iClass® or Prox-based system.

"As the largest smart and proximity card provider in the world, HID Global has thousands of users who would like to upgrade to biometric authorisation, but may not have the budget or the resources to invest in biometric readers," added Robert Fee, director of sales, Americas, Zwipe. "The Zwipe biometric card provides an easy, affordable option for security professionals to extend the use of their present card systems by adding biometrics for multi-factor, card-based authentication."
