Telaeris, Inc., a pioneering provider of handheld solutions for Physical Access Control Systems (PACS), announces its new XPressEntry handheld badge and biometric reader support for all HID Mobile Access® solutions including HID employee badge and Student ID in Apple Wallet.

Traditional credentials are easily lost or forgotten creating a variety of physical security risks. In response to these challenges, organizations can now improve physical security and convenience by issuing mobile credentials on smartphones which are always in their users’ possession and are less likely to be lost in workplace and educational settings.

Implementations Of Digital Credentials

XPressEntry is a critical component of the mobile credential revolution and ensuring identity has never been easier and more secure with a digital wallet. Most campus or facility implementations of digital credentials will be incremental, with both legacy badges and new mobile credentials being used and deployed in parallel.

Without the ability to visually inspect traditional credentials like before, the need to challenge and communicate with mobile credentials, as well as legacy badges using the identity information on record in the access control, becomes even more important. Safety and physical security professionals can rely on Telaeris and XPressEntry to solve these new and unique opportunities.

Credentials In Digital Wallets

In higher education settings, existing mobile campus one-card credentials are similarly being transitioned to credentials in digital wallets. These credentials stored in the digital wallet are utilized at universities and colleges as an integrated ID, payment, and access solution. This means that XPressEntry can be used by guards and administrators to track students for event entry, attendance, emergency accountability and more.

The smartphone will be the home for any credentials in the future; credit cards, government IDs, student IDs, passports, and access control credentials are all moving into the digital wallet, and we are ready,” said Dr. David Carta, CEO of Telaeris. “We are thrilled that XPressEntry is among one of the first handheld, mobile readers to work with HID employee badge and Student ID in Apple Wallet. Telaeris is a proud, longtime HID partner and we will continue to innovate and add value to this important relationship.”
