HID 550PGGAN iCLASS Seos Essential Card Features

• Highly secure: Seos is Secure Identity Object® (SIO)-enabled, allowing for multi-layered security beyond the card technology and protecting identity data from unauthorized access.
• Single-application: A cost-effective and simplified approach designed for traditional access control solutions where more complex multi-application implementations are not needed.
• Convenient: Fully supported by HID Signo, iCLASS SE and multiCLASS SE reader platforms.
• Heightened privacy protection: Seos offers best-in-class data and privacy protection by incorporating mutual authentication and secure messaging mechanisms into stringent best practices for data protection.
• Programmed with a single SIO-based application: Simplifies the physical access control process for users and administrators.
• AES-128 cryptographic algorithms: Protects data during communication with the reader to defend against potential interception attacks.
• Prioritization of user privacy: Defaults to a random contactless unique identifier (4 bytes random value) to enhance user anonymity.
• Ultra-fast read speeds: Features a high-performance hardware chip with an integrated co-processor for cryptographic calculations using symmetric keys.
• Supports ISO/IEC standards: Complies with 7810, 7816, and contactless cards (14443 A), ensuring broad compatibility.
• Data protection wrapper: Secures data within the SIO with key diversification, authentication signatures, and AES-128 based encryption.
• Mutual authentication protocol: Generates a diversified session key to secure each card session with a secure messaging mechanism.
• High attack resistance: Designed to withstand common attacks such as man-in-the-middle and replay attacks.
• Fully supported by HID Signo readers: Ensures seamless integration into existing security systems.
• Compatibility with iCLASS SE® and multiCLASS SE®: Processes SIO-enabled data formats for enhanced functionality.
• Firmware compatibility: Only supported by iCLASS SE readers with firmware Revision E or later.
