Question:
What card types will the Identity Stronghold's Secure Badgeholder and Secure Sleeve products shield, and what card types will the product not sheild?
Answer:
The patent pending product, Secure Badgeholder™ and Secure Sleeve™, are designed to shield ISO 14443A/B and EPC Gen1/Gen2 contactless smart cards; any contactless card that operates at 13.56 Mhz and above. It does not shield non-smart cards (older 125khz proximity cards) or magnetic stripe only cards. On cards that include a secondary 125 khz antenna added for backward compatibility only the new 13.56 Mhz interface is shielded. The 13.56 Mhz interface is generally the only one with personal data. Below is a list of the card types that are shielded and ones that are not shielded by the Secure Badgeholder™ and Secure Sleeve.
Shields these types of cards:
- All HID iClass, HID MIFARE®, HID FlexSmart, DESFire
