Imagine using your employee building access badge beyond the front door to access services throughout the office. Your badge now becomes your key to logging on to your computer, shared printers and copiers, time and attendance, food services and more. The TouchSecure™ Desktop reader eliminates PIN pads and passwords, offering companies a simple method to capture an employee identification number for shared services billing and authentication. Since the reader supports most technology cards, deployment is simple and cost effective.

Single Sign On
Instead of using a password for Single Sign On (SS0) access, upgrade your security to two factor authentication using your building access badge and a PIN. The TouchSecure reader eliminates password management while providing more robust security across the entire network. TouchSecure is compatible with most SSO software packages that support two factor authentication.

Shared Office Services
With the TouchSecure reader installed on shared office equipment such as copiers and printers, department usage billing becomes manageable. Instead of sensitive documents lying around shared equipment, now they are printed by the authorized employee as their card is presented.

Point of Sale
For companies that offer cafeteria services for employees, the TouchSecure Desktop reader provides a method to bill employees, eliminating cash transactions. The TouchSecure Desktop reader interfaces with most POS transaction management software by capturing the employee details from their ID badge for every transition.

Compatible with over 300 million physical access proximity cards, this reader allows the use of building access cards for other forms of identification and security throughout the workplace. The plug-and-play reader comes with flash memory, allowing the user to quickly configure the output to meet the user's needs.

As a card enrollment of ID badge reader/tester, the USB model emulates a keyboard and will keystroke the card's ID and / or site code to the cursor's location on the screen. The reader can be configured to add keystrokes before and after the card's data. The serial version, availalbe in RS-232, Ethernet, or USB-async, delivers the card's data in ASCII.

The pcProx HID USB reader can be integrated with other softwear applications using the optional SDK or used as a standalone system. As an integrated reader you will find applications such as card enrollment, visitor management, vending, point of sale, user authorization, seminar, fitness or training attendance, magnetic card emulation and more.

Applications as an integrated reader:

• PC/LAN access control
• Application log-on
• Employee identification
• Single sign-on
