Types of Cards – How it WorksInteroperable vs. Not Interoperable • 3 Levels of Security • 3 Types of Cards • 3 Types of Agency Issuers
Identification At minimum add qualifications which can be validated at the scene without connectivity. This layer of validation is included in the Salamander Accountability system and makes the PIV-I or PIV- C card more useful.
Use the handheld for checking against a known list. The System can check either at a separate validation station or at a command station. The Goal is to build a platform for issuance and management.
The System can check three levels of authentication at the handheld: • Check the Validation of the Card. • Check the Validation of the PIN. • Check the validation of the biometric
The System can check the list via Cell or wireless or satellite or local Compact dataset on the laptop: • Check the Validation against Fed,State, local lists. • We sell a hub application called interTRAX exchange for this purpose and could mix it with an Fed list provider.
There are Three places to validate cards. Command validation of the all the layers of authority including Fed Lists. Handheld validation using three factor authentication. Laptop validation of the all the layers of authority including Fed List. It is not NIMS Protocol to use a FIPS/FRAC Card to determine Redzone admittance: Lack of Qualifications and Physical Card Holding is the reason.
