HID iCLASS Cards and Credentials

The HID iCLASS® Card is a secure, contactless smart card solution engineered for high-assurance access control and identity management. Designed to meet the evolving needs of enterprise, government, and institutional environments, iCLASS cards deliver secure authentication, data integrity, and seamless system integration.

Ideal for high-security facilities, HID iCLASS credentials operate at 13.56 MHz and utilize mutual authentication between card and reader, providing a higher level of security than traditional proximity cards. They are compatible with a wide range of HID readers and access control platforms, making them a reliable choice for organizations seeking flexible and scalable identity solutions.

iCLASS cards are available in a variety of form factors—including PVC cards, key fobs, and adhesive tags—supporting multiple applications such as secure access, time and attendance, vending, and biometric identification. Advanced models also support SIO (Secure Identity Object) data structure, enhancing encryption and privacy across the entire credential lifecycle.

Built with durability and interoperability in mind, HID iCLASS credentials help organizations enhance security, simplify credential management, and meet regulatory compliance requirements across physical and logical domains.
