Zwipe and LEGIC Identsystems Announce Biometric Cardholder Verification on Zwipe Access for Newly Released LEGIC Neon on Card

As part of the official launch of LEGIC neon on card Zwipe and LEGIC Identsystems are excited to announce the introduction of biometric cardholder verification on Zwipe Access for LEGIC-based access control systems. This enhancement, now available commercially, integrates Zwipe’s industry-leading biometric technology into the latest version of LEGIC’s neon application.

With LEGIC neon on card, organizations can now deploy smartcard-based access solutions that incorporate fingerprint authentication. This new feature ensures that Zwipe Access releases credentials only after successful on-card fingerprint verification, adding an extra layer of security while maintaining a seamless experience for users.

For end users, the process is simple and secure: by placing a finger on the card’s built-in sensor, the cardholder can easily unlock the credentials needed to gain access via an NFC reader. This eliminates the need for PINs or passwords, streamlining access control without compromising safety.

“We are delighted to bring multi-factor authentication to LEGIC neon-based cards,” said Christoph Beckenbauer, General Manager at LEGIC Identsystems. “This product seamlessly extends biometric verification to smartcards, which was previously only available with LEGIC neon for smartphones.”

“LEGIC neon is a uniquely secure and flexible technology.” Robert Puskaric, President and CEO of Zwipe, added, “We are proud that LEGIC has chosen to partner with us, leveraging our Zwipe Access platform to enhance the security of their application.”
