Description
HID Global’s Seos Essential + Prox card is designed to be an economical solution that enables security system owners to migrate from legacy, low-frequency 125kHz based systems to a modern and secure credential technology.
Seos Essential cards provide trusted management of secure identities within the SIO-enabled HID Signo and iCLASS SE reader platforms. This powerful credential technology is built to deliver superior data integrity and privacy protection by leveraging the latest cryptographic algorithms and security techniques. Additionally, a secure messaging protocol is also used to protect data transmission between card and reader.
Main Features
- Programmed with a single SIO-based physical access control application for simplicity
- AES-128 cryptographic algorithms for data protection during communication with the reader to defend against attacks attempting to intercept data
- Prioritization of user privacy, always defaults to using a random contactless unique identifier (4 bytes random value)
- Ultra-fast read speeds with a high-performance hardware chip integrating co-processor for cryptographic calculations with symmetric keys
- Supports ISO/IEC standards: 7810, 7816 and contactless cards (14443 A)
- Supports 125kHz HID Prox and Indala formats
- Data within the SIO is secured with a wrapper that provides key diversification, authentication signatures, and AES-128 based encryption
- Mutual authentication protocol with generation of diversified session key to protect each card session with secure messaging
- High resistance to common attacks (man in the middle, replay attacks and others)
- Seos Essential is fully supported by HID Signo Readers
