Intercede Launches MYID 8 IDentity
and Credential Management System
Intercede’s MyID 8 WOWS Partners
and Customers at US Product Launch: The World’s First IDentity
and Credential Management System (IDCMS)
Reston, Virginia (PRWEB)
June 4, 2008 -- Intercede Group plc (London Stock Exchange AIM:
IGP), a leading developer and supplier of IDentity and Credential
Management software, today announced the launch of MyID 8 at a major
event in Reston, Virginia. A large audience of Intercede customers
and partners experienced first hand why MyID has been chosen by
the US Federal Government to deploy over one million MyID licenses.
“The world of identity
and credential management has today become a safer, simpler place
with the launch of the first commercial off-the-shelf, fully integrated
IDCMS platform. MyID 8 changes the paradigm for how governments
and commercial organizations deliver secure identities and associated
credentials to citizens and employees,” said Richard Parris,
Chairman and Chief Executive Officer at Intercede. “Using MyID
8, customers can deploy small, large and very large scale identity
projects quicker, with less risk and at significantly lower cost
than has previously been possible. No longer will projects be subject
to compromise, delay or failure due to the difficulties of integrating
products from multiple suppliers.
Additionally, with only
one system to manage, the operational return on investment (ROI)
is enhanced for end customers. Systems Integrators can add value
to customers faster by using MyID 8’s workbench of integration
tools to quickly build a sustainable and repeatable knowledge base
that can be leveraged across many projects”.
Intercede’s MyID
takes ID card management to a new level by integrating Secure Workflows,
Technology Orchestration, an Integrator’s Workbench and Scaleability
(WOWS) into a single system. MyID 8 is highly flexible: far more
than a basic Identity or Card Management System. It is a customizable,
functionally-rich comprehensive environment for managing people,
enforcing policies and enabling processes. Through every stage of
the identity lifecycle – registration, identity verification,
device and credential issuance and post-issuance management - MyID
delivers complete control and meets the demands of today’s
security conscious organizations.
What’s new in MyID 8?
- Enhanced registration: including support for capturing facial
biometrics, fingerprints, and document scanning.
- Built-in identity verification: integrated with identity background
checking and biometric verification services.
- Simplified physical and logical access convergence: made easy
through standard physical access system connectors and centralized
ID access rights control.
- Plus… an enhanced user interface and additional supported
devices, printers and systems.
MyID 8 – The WOW factors!
- Workflow – Flexible identity policy configuration with
secure workflows that walk you step-by-step through all enrolment,
issuance and management activities.
- Orchestration – MyID integrates multiple security technologies
and systems, and efficiently manages information flows between
them.
- Workbench – The MyID toolkit provides all the API’s,
documentation, sample code and training necessary to quickly integrate
MyID into existing environments.
- Scaleability – MyID is used around the world in ID deployments
ranging from hundreds to millions of users.
