XceedID and idOnDemand Form Technology Partnership
GOLDEN, COL. – June 23, 2010 – XceedID, a leading manufacturer of contactless credentials and readers, and idOnDemand, pioneers in smart identification, are partnering to offer a joint solution that consolidates a user’s identity across the enterprise. This solution provides customers with the ability to migrate to credentials that can satisfy both physical access control (building) and logical access control (computer network), through a cloud based model, using a single, multipurpose corporate badge.
For the first time, small to medium sized businesses will be able to take advantage of standards-based security across the enterprise without the business risk of creating a complex infrastructure or experiencing upfront capital costs. Paired with XceedID’s pioneering multi-technology readers, customers can obtain a robust credential that allows seamless transition away from legacy technologies to higher security open standards that are compatible with recent U.S. government initiatives such as FIPS 201.
“The partnership with idOnDemand enables true convergence of building and IT assets, providing users with a single globally-trusted identity for buildings, computers and the cloud,” reports John Menzel, director of business development for XceedID. “This partnership helps provide the convergence solutions that our customers are requesting.”
“XceedID shares a similar vision of making secure identity solutions more accessible and simple to deploy and manage,” affirms Jason Hart, chief executive officer of idOnDemand. “Our customers are asking for solutions that enable convergence and upgrading to the latest physical security systems. With the XceedID solution, this is now possible.”
