LEAF is a new standard for identity credentials, providing an alternative to well-known platforms such as LEGIC or HID. Unlike these technologies, LEAF is an open platform created to support interoperability within the access-control market.
That means end users could use their LEAF ID card, key fob or smartphone to unlock access via any LEAF-enabled reader. And because the LEAF standard is backward-adaptable with suitable existing reader hardware, moving to LEAF is easy and cost-effective for system operators and manufacturers.
