HID Crescendo® 4000 Dual Interface Smart Card – Blank, Unmarked CUID & DESFire® EV3
Passwordless, Phishing-Resistant Smart Card with Secure Physical Access and No Visible Markings
The HID Crescendo 4000 Dual Interface Smart Card is a converged credential built for organisations deploying Zero Trust security architectures. It combines FIDO2 passwordless login, PIV-compatible PKI smart card functions, and DESFire® EV3 contactless access in one secure, flexible form factor—with no visible CUID or DESFire markings on the card body.
Designed for phishing-resistant Multi-Factor Authentication (MFA) and high-security physical access, this card supports both contact and contactless interfaces for use across digital identity systems (e.g., Windows logon, Azure AD, Okta, Google Workspace) and access control platforms. The onboard MIFARE DESFire® EV3 chip provides AES encryption, secure messaging, and granular file structure control for building access, print, payment, and transit applications.
With an embedded CUID and unmarked surface, this blank card is ideal for personalised printing, encoding, and secure issuance in environments where aesthetics, discretion, or branding control are key. Optional bundling with HID Seos®, iCLASS SE®, or Prox® is available. Contact us to configure your hybrid deployment.
