HID Global’s Crescendo Key Series provides proven, strong authentication for employees accessing corporate IT systems. The Crescendo Key Series is designed to be easy and fast to deploy while expanding with continuously evolving needs thanks to proven standards such as PIV and FIDO2. The Crescendo Key solution utilizes Near Field Communications (NFC) and a USB-A and a USB-C while offering the same two-factor authentication and digital and encryption capabilities of a smart card.
The Crescendo Key Series from HID Global provides:
- Seamless compliance while protecting networks, computers and applications with strong authentication.
- Digital signature, enabling users to verify the provenance of emails and documents.
- Data encryption, allowing only authorized users to access sensitive information.
- A convenient and unobtrusive form factor that complements small laptops and tablets and doesn’t require additional reader hardware.
Crescendo Key can be used in stand-alone mode or centrally managed by ActivID® Credential Management System. It works in combination with ActivClient® middleware or HID Global’s ActivID appliance. Furthermore, Crescendo is part of the ActivOne, HID PIV Express™ and HID PIV Enterprise™ solutions which help organizations improve their security posture, comply with mandates and improve the user experience.
