SafeNet Shortage Delivery Fee - Smartcards

SafeNet IDPrime PIV 3.0 Smartcard delivers high-assurance identity and access management in a dual-interface (contact and contactless) form factor. Its Thales chip with 128 KB EEPROM supports RSA up to 4096-bit and ECC up to 521-bit, enabling strong authentication, digital signature, and encryption for enterprise and government use.

Advantages

Certified to FIPS 140-2 Level 3 and Common Criteria EAL5+, this card meets stringent security requirements. On-chip key generation, secure messaging, and PIN protection prevent cloning and unauthorized access. Dual interface supports both contact and contactless (NFC) usage, offering flexibility across physical and logical access scenarios.

Suitable for

• Logical access control to workstations and networks
