MagenQ Brings CAC and PIV Authentication, Encryption, and Signing to iOS Devices

          San Diego, CA – May 6, 2026 – Tx Systems Inc. and AirID are launching MagenQ, a FIPS compliant iOS application addressing the need for affordable mobile authentication, encryption, decryption, and digital signing on iOS devices via USB-C CAC/PIV Readers or the AirID Bluetooth CAC/PIV Readers. 

          For years, mobile authentication has been a challenge for DoD personnel, federal agencies, defense contractors, and commercial enterprises that rely on CAC/PIV Cards. As iOS access becomes critical in an ever-mobilizing world, MagenQ bridges the gap between traditional desktop identity verification and modern workflows. MagenQ allows everyday CAC users to login to their secure government websites and applications using iOS devices like your  iPhone and iPads! 

          MagenQ functions across native and managed iOS applications, including Microsoft Edge, Microsoft Outlook, Apple Mail, and Apple Safari. 

Key features include: 

• CAC/PIV authentication to federal websites and systems 
• Email encryption and decryption for secure communications 
• Digital signing of protected documents 

 MagenQ is accessible on the iOS Appstore and can be accessed for free via a 7 day trial here.
