Today there is a necessary heightened interest in implementing more secure identification systems to improve confidence in verifying those seeking access to physical or virtual locations.  These personal ID solutions must be secure but also protect the privacy of the individuals’ identification information.

Multiple factor authentication incorporates more than one level of identification protection.  It incorporates something you have (card), something you know (pin) and/or something you are (biometric information).  ACS supports and distributes technologies that can be incorporated into a multi-factor personal ID system.

For healthcare, multiple levels of security and HIPPA confidentiality requires controlled access to all patient information.  Corporations are expanding the functionality of their ID systems from a simple physical identification (card) to physical access and access to logical information and applications. 

Multi-factor authentication technologies, such as smart chip cards, biometrics and digital signatures that use PKI are fast becoming standards in the healthcare, corporate and government industries.
