The Secure Badgeholder® Classic is the ultimate RFID-blocking solution for protecting your access cards and sensitive information. Crafted from high-quality polycarbonate, this durable badge holder is designed for professionals who need reliable security for their ID cards in high-risk environments. Whether you are a government employee, healthcare worker, first responder, or corporate professional, this badge holder ensures that your credentials are safe from unauthorized scanning and cloning. The RFID-blocking technology offers peace of mind by shielding your data from cyber threats, making it a must-have for anyone using RFID-enabled badges.

This rugged badge holder is made of extremely durable polycarbonate. The springs are stainless steel, ideal for salt-water environments. Insert and remove your card from the top. The state of the art unique open face design keeps the card locked-in to prevent card loss, yet allows easy access to remove the card when necessary.

The Secure Badge Holder Classic from Identity Stronghold shields a single ISO7810 ID-1 form factor (credit card size) TWIC, PIV, CAC, or other identification cards. It meets GSA FIPS-201 requirements for an electromagnetically opaque sleeve. It provides a barrier to invasive or unwanted communications with the card and puts the user in control of where and when the card is read. The perfect choice for TWIC, HSPD-12 PIV, CAC, HID iClass, LincPass, and other RFID enabled cards. Don't risk identity theft, invasion of privacy, tracking, or even card cloning. Always keep your contactless cards in a shielded Secure Badge Holder.

Designed for Government and Enterprise Threats

Most badge holders are designed for:

  • Ineffective or no protection
  • Lowest possible manufacturing cost

ID Stronghold designs badgeholders for environments where compromise has real consequences, including:

  • Federal agencies and Critical infrastructure
  • Defense contractors
  • Data centers and communications facilities
  • Healthcare systems
  • Financial systems
  • Pharmaceutical/Biological industries
  • Airports and transportation control areas.

That means:

  • Protection against common RFID and NFC credential attacks, including relay attacks
  • No loss of protection when cards shift inside the holder
  • No exposed edges that allow signals to leak
  • No performance drop when the holder is flexed, crushed, or worn on a lanyard every day

Our Badge Holders help Financial Institutions Pass the FFIEC exam

FFIEC examiners typically test:

✔ Whether the institution has conducted a risk assessment that identifies credential compromise as a threat

✔ Whether access controls require authentication that can’t be trivially bypassed (e.g., duplicated badge RFIDs)

✔ Whether compensating controls (surveillance, physical guards, layered authentication) are in place

Our badge holders will show your commitment to credential risk management.

Great badge holders! I got 2 for 2 separate badges, which combined are a bit heavy for a standard lanyard with a retractable badge clip. Individually, they're great! They get the job done, no complaints.

Perfect Badge Holder

I hate wearing a lanyard with my badge. This belt clip version is secure and safe. The perfect solution. It looks sturdy enough to hold up to the abuse I will give it wearing it at belt height. Thanks

Best secure card holder on the market

I work at a US Federal facility. Every gate or door have a scanner in or out.
I really didn't like other brands we also use because the plastic breaks where a lanyard connects. I use a Zip key chain attached on my belt. The other products just don't hold up to the constant use.

Great badge holders for the scan door at work.

These are some great badge holders, I had order 3 packages from Amazon and as I was getting them for coworkers at work other people was asking about them. Therefore I was like I need to go to the main company website because I was in need of more than 9 badges holders at a time, that I was getting from Amazon. I were spending more money for them badges holders, when I needed more that one of the colors. Therefore I was glad I came to the website I saved money and got way more colors for my money.. thanks for these Id badge holders.

Great badge holder

I ordered two of these, one for myself and one for a friend. My ID badge is a little on the chunky side, probably because it's a million years old. It's a tight squeeze but my badge fits and I haven't had any problems getting into my building. My friend's badge is newer and thinner and fits the holder perfectly. She works for a company that takes on government contracts so it's important her badge is secure. She loves this holder.

As for the company in general, I'm impressed with their customer service. I had forgotten to enter my apartment number when I placed my initial order, so the post office sent it back. I emailed customer service and in less than 24hrs they got back to me and fixed the address on the shipping label so I could receive my products.

Great tool for badges. Orange and black colors aren't translucent.

Pro: Love these badge holders they're excellent for me at work so I don't have to slide it in and out of the holder or struggle to get it out when my hands are full.

Con: I ordered the blue and the orange; I was disappointed to find the orange is solid and not translucent like all of the other offered colors sans black. I gave them to my Cleveland Browns fans, will continue to hunt for translucent orange else where.

Sturdy and easy to slide the ID in.. I did not give it 5 stars because I thought it would have a clear front peice to protect on enclose the ID

Hold your badge in style.

I love this stylish badge holder. No need to pull the badge out of the holder for the electronic device to read it. Get easy access by squeezing the clamp. Fast, easy, durable.
Does not include a lanyard.

These things are awesome. I was skeptical about how well this would work, but cards cannot be read even if they are touching the reader when this is closed.

Works for me

I've been using one of these PIV card holders for 3 years now. I got mine from my gov agency......only reason I am visiting Amazon to order a new one is because my 2 year old daughter got a hold of my lanyard and broke the holder. I like this style of holder because its easy to take the PIV card in/out as I have to do multiple times per day.

T
T. M.
It works

Exactly what those of us with PIV cards need Works great. The plastic is hard and will crack if force is applied, so I bought a package of them, as I usually break mine after a year or so.

Protect your smart card without sacrificing access when opening doors.

The product works fairly well. Very limited travel on the card so that it is just far enough away from the shielding so that you can use it to open doors and such. For those cases where you do have to remove the card, such as laptop smart card readers, it slides out easily but is still firmly held in place when you put it back. The only complaint is the cost. Feels like you should be able to make such a device a few dollars cheaper. All in all a good product though.

It functioned as stated in its description. Holds one ID badge tightly. Seems to be fairly rigid in construction.

Prevented all reading - even from a weaponized reader

Great at blocking 13.56 mhz from iclass badges. If you don't want some lame-ass red team / penetration testing team to steal you badge info, clone it, and impersonate you, this is great. Even a weaponized HID R90 cannot read an iclass badge at 0.00" when sitting against the plate this holder has in it. Great protection purchase. but so easy to use - just press on the pivot point, the badge separates from the plate, and it can be read again. easy!

Excellent Product

Excellent item most valuable for security and bodyguard work.

Works well for CR80 cards, does not work at all for clamshell type cards.

Works well with CR80 (credit card) sized access cards. Does not work with clamshell type cards; they are too thick and although you can firmly slide them into the receiver, the thickness of the clamshell cards holds the flap open just a bit and it's enough that the card reads from a standard distance. Tested with a CR80 size access card and it works as expected. Would be nice if SOMEBODY (hint, hint Identity Stronghold!) would make these FIPS compliant badge holders accept clamshell cards too!

Provides Security and Easy Access

The best thing about this badge holder is that it provides easy access to my ID. With one hand I can pull it out and check in to my building. I love the security of it, but it's sturdy, solid and provides easy access. Well worth the money.

Best holder for my work I'D. It slip in and out of the case when I badge in at the turn tile at work.

This is exactly what I was looking for.

I choose this case, because the clear one that I had was about 4 years old. It worked fine, but I like this black cover much better. This holder is very sturdy and durable.

It works as described.

Wish it held a second card, but it works nicely otherwise. Nice to not have to keep pulling the card out all the time to enter facilities and badge in.

Durable Product!

This is the BEST ID Badge Holder hands down. The material is sturdy and durable. I also like the fact that it has security to block RFID scanning too. Perfect fit for my CAC and its purple, my favorite color!!

Useful and not too expensive.

Useful for badging into facilities. It spares you having to fumble the card in and out of the case, especially when you have to badge through several doors in a row to get into your office.
