Each FARGO model includes optional field-upgradeable modules to scale to future requirements and works seamlessly with other HID Global products and technologies to optimise security and interoperability.

During an IFSEC SA track session, HID Global will discuss the company’s inside perspectives on optimising smartcard technology.

* John Lakin, HID Global’s regional sales manager, Sub-Saharan Africa, will present 'the benefits of multi-application smartcard technology', where he will explore the benefits and considerations associated with implementing multiple applications on a single contactless smartcard or credential. Lakin will also share customer success stories to illustrate 'real life' multi-application smartcard deployments and discuss how to leverage converged technologies on a single card in various organisations and vertical markets.
