HID Global, announced its participation at the Smart Card Expo 2022 to engage its customers as well as partners specific to its Secure Issuance (SI) and Identification Technology (IDT) solutions through on-ground product demos and showcases.
Digitization across domains has been one of the Indian government’s top priorities over the past couple of years. This industry-wide transformation has also brought several threats and security risks, thereby resulting in the growing demand for reliable and seamless security solutions in the country. A recent IDC report states, “Over 74% of large Indian enterprises have increased their security spend. There is a rise in security investments within professional services, government, BFSI and healthcare sectors.” India, therefore, remains a key market for HID Global and through events such as the Smart Card Expo, the company is able to interact, showcase and get a pulse of the security market.
Matt Winn, Senior Director, Public Relations and Corporate Communications, HID Global, said, “As a leader in secure identity solutions, we are excited to participate in the Smart Card Expo and related RFID and IoT events to showcase our innovations for streamlining card issuance and personalisation. We will demonstrate HID’s contactless identification and sensing RFID solutions for the automation and manufacturing industries, including our linen management solution and TSL™ Readers. This will be an opportunity for attendees to explore solutions that can positively impact their businesses. We look forward to reconnecting with thought leaders and influencers in the industry while highlighting our solutions that will empower businesses to operate efficiently in a rapidly changing environment.”
