HID Crescendo® 4000 FIDO Contactless-Only Smart Card – Blank, Unmarked CUID & DESFire® EV3
Passwordless, Phishing-Resistant Smart Card with Secure Contactless Access – No Visual Markings
The HID Crescendo 4000 FIDO Contactless-Only Smart Card is a secure, modern authentication credential designed for organisations embracing Zero Trust architecture and passwordless access. With support for both FIDO2 and FIDO U2F, it enables phishing-resistant Multi-Factor Authentication (MFA) across cloud, desktop, and web applications—without requiring passwords, drivers, or client software.
This version includes a CUID and integrated MIFARE DESFire® EV3 chip for secure physical access—both unmarked on the card surface, offering a clean aesthetic ideal for high-security environments where discretion, branding flexibility, or secure issuance is critical. The DESFire EV3 chip provides AES encryption, secure messaging, mutual authentication, and file-level control for advanced contactless access systems.
Delivered blank, the card is ready for custom printing, encoding, or bureau personalisation. It also supports optional bundling with HID Seos®, iCLASS SE®, or Prox® formats for unified physical and logical access control. Contact us to configure your solution.
