Frequently Asked Questions

1. How many credential technologies do HID Signo readers support?

HID Signo readers are exceptionally versatile, supporting interoperability with over 15 credential technologies including Seos®, HID Mobile Access®, MIFARE DESFire EV1/EV2/EV3, iCLASS and many more. This flexibility simplifies migration to modern credential technologies while maintaining compatibility with legacy systems.

2. What security features does HID Signo offer?

HID Signo readers employ a multi-layered security approach with several advanced features. They store cryptographic keys on certified secure element hardware (EAL 5+), support OSDP Secure Channel Protocol for encrypted bidirectional communication and are SIA OSDP Verified through rigorous third-party testing. Signo readers also feature HID's Secure Identity Object (SIO) for trusted authentication and include velocity checking to protect against brute force attacks. These comprehensive protections make Signo ideal for high-security environments.

3. What’s the difference between multi-technology and single-technology readers?

Multi-technology readers can process multiple credential types, supporting both legacy proximity cards and modern smart cards. This flexibility enables phased security upgrades while maintaining support for existing credentials. Single-technology readers are optimized for specific credential types, offering a streamlined solution for standardized deployments.

4. What management capabilities do the software solutions provide?

HID’s software platforms deliver centralized control over reader networks, credential management and system settings. Administrators can instantly modify access rights, update firmware and generate detailed activity reports.

5. Which reader types meet federal security standards?

HID’s government-compliant readers, including our pivCLASS® and Signo PIV lines, are specifically designed to meet FIPS 201 requirements. These readers support PIV, PIV-I, CAC and other federal credentials while enabling strong authentication through features like PKI validation and biometric verification.

6. What installation options are available for different door types?

HID offers readers to accommodate various mounting scenarios. Mullion-mount readers work with narrow door frames, wall-switch models suit standard gang boxes and long-range readers can be mounted for gate or parking entrance control. Most models are available for both indoor and outdoor installation, with weather-resistant options for harsh environments.
