HID Crescendo® 144K FIPS Smart Card with MIFARE & Magstripe
Phishing-Resistant MFA and PIV Smart Card with Legacy Access Support
The Crescendo 144K FIPS Smart Card with MIFARE and Magstripe from HID Global combines secure Multi-Factor Authentication (MFA), PIV-compliant identity, and physical access capability into one versatile credential. Featuring a FIPS 201-certified chip for digital identity, integrated MIFARE contactless technology, and a magnetic stripe, this card is ideal for organisations transitioning to Zero Trust architectures while maintaining compatibility with legacy systems.
Designed to guard against phishing attacks, the card supports smart card login, certificate-based digital signatures, and encryption through secure PKI. The MIFARE chip enables contactless access control, while the magstripe supports older swipe-based infrastructure such as time and attendance or basic door systems.
This card can also be custom-bundled with HID’s full range of Physical Access Technologies, including Seos®, iCLASS SE®, and Prox, enabling true convergence between physical and logical access. Contact us directly to explore hybrid configurations tailored to your security environment.
