Entrust, a global pioneer in trusted identity, payments, and data announced a technology alliance partnership with NEDAP, an access control provider, to deliver interoperability between credential issuance and ID programme management capabilities.
Managing physical access for people, visitors and assets is complex and ever-evolving. Organisations seek access control programmes that can provide both credential issuance and access management capabilities but find that they need to manage multiple vendors and solutions that do not communicate with each other.
All-in-one card design
With this technology alliance, customers can use the Entrust ID issuance solution in concert with NEDAP AEOS for a complete all-in-one card design, issuance, and management system.
NEDAP AEOS is an access control platform that connects physical locks, lockers, readers, and additional devices to enhance the flow of people safely and securely through the clients' facilities.
Simplify access control
We are excited to work with NEDAP to provide a smooth credential issuance process for customers in Europe and beyond"
“The last thing programme administrators need is to juggle multiple solution providers, not to mention systems and the data sets within each,” said Tony Ball, Senior Vice President, and General Manager, Instant Issuance at Entrust.
“With the technology alliance between Entrust and NEDAP, customers can simplify their access control programmes using one vendor that offers two interoperable solutions in one. We are excited to work with NEDAP to provide a smooth credential issuance process for customers in Europe and beyond.”
A complete suite of solutions
“The ability to efficiently and easily control who gains access to an organisation’s facility is foundational to providing a safe and secure organisation,” said Ruben Brinkman, Commercial Operations Lead for NEDAP.
“Combining the capabilities of NEDAP and Entrust gives our customers a complete suite of solutions that supports all of their security needs no matter how they scale.”
