This functionality prevents a URL from being used multiple times without a physical tap, as verification will fail, and also makes the tag impossible to clone. MyTAG Proof of Identity provides instant notification to determine it is the real secure ID card used (versus someone who has copied or shared the URL code, or manually typed the URL into a web browser). The OMNIKEY® 3121 is an easy-to-install USB card reader. Identity can hence be visually verified against the photo on the card plus any detailed personal information, training records and equipment use permits can be displayed. HID Global, with its product brand OMNIKEY one of the worlds leading manufacturers of innovative smart card readers, offers with the OMNIKEY® 3121 a high-performance smart card reader USB connected for desktop use with multiple standing options in a robust housing.
