MaxID Acquires Enterprise Air's Mobile Badge Management Suite; Compelling Solution Bridging Mobile Identity to Physical Access Systems (PACS) - LenelOnGuard, Honeywell...

FAIRFAX, Va., May 11, 2011 /PRNewswire/ -- MaxID Corp, a leading provider of mobile identity solutions is pleased to announce that it has reached agreement to acquire Enterprise Air's Mobile Badge Management Manager (MBM) software Suite.  The MBM product line offers seamless integration to the physical access system (PACS) of an organization and provides a secure "virtual door or turn style" for facilities.  The MBM server integrates with more than a dozen different PACS systems including LenelOnGuard, Honeywell, Software House and many others.

"Enhancing mobile identity with security that provides true access management is at the heart of the functional requirement defined by the critical infrastructure industry.  As part of that, integration to and coordination/synchronization with the physical access system (PACS) is becoming mandatory.  With the addition of the MBM product Suite from Enterprise Air, we will now be able to provide several end-to-end solutions consisting of handheld devices, identity and security software and PACS connectivity for our key markets including the maritime market for TWIC credentials, the Oil/Gas, power generation and transportation facilities.   We believe that facility security officers will find that MaxID will offer the most complete, compelling and turnkey solution for integrating PACS systems to HSPD12 and proximity entry cards," said Brian Skiba, President of MaxID Corp. US.

Bill Markel, CEO of Enterprise Air, will be joining MaxID to oversee the Mobile Security and Identity Solutions practice at MaxID Corp.  Markel notes, "MaxID, with its increasing strategic shift from a leading multimodal device maker to a more holistic solution provider and with its rapid dominance in the TWIC/PIV/CAC market place, is an ideal partner to work with for Enterprise Air.  The MBM product suite is very complementary as it gains strong acceptance in the more commercial side of the critical infrastructure market."

The Mobile Badge Management (MBM) Suite verifies various card-based credentials such as proximity, HID iClass. MiFare and Desfire cards.  MBM is the industry-leading mobile solution that verifies entry credentials and ensures fast and accurate accounting of employees and visitors to a facility – anywhere and anytime.  The MBM Server provides bidirectional communications and exchange of information with a variety of physical access systems from manufacturers such as Lenel, Software House, AMAG, and Honeywell which represent 80% of the Enterprise PACS marketplace.

The MaxIDentity Suite contains a series of ready-to-use applications to read PIV, PIV-I, TWIC, CAC, FiXS, and FRAC smart cards as well as passports, ePassports, Seafarer ID cards, and driver's licenses.  The software suite is available on the MaxID line of multi-modal portable devices including the iDL500, iDL502, and iDL520 today.  The MaxIDentity Suite was jointly developed by MaxID Corporation based in Fairfax, Virginia and MultiModalID, LLC based in Falls Church, Virginia.
