of uTrust TS <strong>Government</strong> Readers for premises access<br />
Identiv, Inc. (NASDAQ: INVE), a global security<br />
technology company that provides trusted identity<br />
solutions for premises, information, and everyday<br />
items, has announced that Identiv’s uTrust<br />
TS <strong>Government</strong> Readers for premises access are<br />
now included on the U.S. government’s FICAM<br />
Approved Products List (APL). The General Services<br />
Administration (GSA) lab, which is part of<br />
the Federal Identity, Credential, and Access Management<br />
(FICAM) Testing Program, has evaluated<br />
and approved Identiv’s uTrust TS <strong>Government</strong><br />
Readers.<br />
Identiv’s uTrust TS <strong>Government</strong><br />
Reader is specifically<br />
designed for U.S. government<br />
customers to support<br />
any existing building access<br />
system (such as Identiv, Lenel,<br />
AMAG, Honeywell, or<br />
Software House) and provide<br />
a forward path to FICAM<br />
compliance. Featuring high<br />
security with an inbuilt secure<br />
processor certified to the<br />
highest standards (EAL 6+), uTrust TS Readers<br />
support all major commercial and government<br />
access credentials, including U.S. government<br />
PIV, PIV-I, and CAC. Multiple form factors are<br />
available, including mullion and wall mount, with<br />
an upcoming keypad model.<br />

Offering a seamless transition to standardsbased<br />
network cabling, uTrust TS Readers support<br />
simultaneous Wiegand, RS485, and Ethernet<br />
communication. Four independent processors<br />
combine to deliver the fastest building entry transaction<br />
times, speeding access and reducing user<br />
frustration. One reader can be used at all building<br />
access points, delivering secure, future-proof access,<br />
while simplifying purchasing and reducing<br />
deployment and management costs.<br />
“The uTrust TS <strong>Government</strong> Reader delivers a single<br />
cost-effective reader that<br />
supports all existing access<br />
systems and all major credential<br />
types, providing a clear<br />
path to a standards-based FI-<br />
CAM solution and migration<br />
to network cabling,” said Jason<br />
Hart, Identiv CEO. “Identiv<br />
Channel Alliance Network<br />
partners are able to deliver a<br />
product from an American<br />
company to 100% of the U.S.<br />
government marketplace, giving<br />
customers a cost-effective solution for over<br />
150,000 access points across all U.S. government<br />
buildings, recently mandated to adopt FICAM<br />
standards. uTrust TS <strong>Government</strong> Readers are<br />
available now and have already shipped to U.S.<br />
government customers.”
