Software developers do not need specific knowledge of smart card technology to integrate ActivID ActivClient services into their applications. ActivID ActivClient comes with a Software Development Kit (SDK) that enables systems integrators and independent software vendors to smart card-enable their applications.

In addition to Windows®, it is available for Apple® OS X and Linux®-based platforms. Security Clients ActivID: ActivClient is the enterprise smart card middleware in the HID Global Identity Assurance portfolio.For customers without a Credential Management system, ActivID ActivClient offers a stand-alone mode, with an initialization tool for easy issuance and reset of smart cards and USB tokens. When deployed with ActivID CMS, ActivID ActivClient® offers a smart card auto-update service, enabling credentials to be centrally updated after card issuance, with minimal cardholder disruption. Flexible Deployment Models: The ActivID® Credential Management System (CMS) is a reliable, proven, and extensible solution that enables organizations to securely issue and manage digital credentials on devices.This significantly reduces help desk costs and the administrative costs normally associated with endpoint security These capabilities provide increased security to end users, without the burden of learning new software capabilities. For example, Microsoft Outlook is automatically configured for secure email with the smart card certificates, and the Exchange Global Address List (GAL) is automatically updated with the same certificates. ActivClient makes PKI easy for the end users. Reduce costs: Integrates easily into existing infrastructure.Lower Smart Card Deployment Costs ActivID ActivClient can easily be deployed and managed via standard software, such as Microsoft Active Directory and Microsoft Group Policy Objects, reducing the cost of smart card deployment.Optimize productivity: Single, versatile strong authentication tool for both Windows Login and Remote Access.Improve compliance: Complies with all major government and industry regulations.These security services help organizations improve compliance with government regulations (e.g., Sarbanes-Oxley Act Section 302: Internal Controls) and industry standards (e.g., PCI DSS Section 8) ActivClient includes a Windows compliant smart card mini-driver and a PKCS #11 compliant library, enabling email and document digital signature and encryption services with a large number of applications.



This enables organizations to authenticate, using the same smart card, to legacy authentication systems that are not PKI-enabled yet. ActivID ActivClient can be deployed with ActivID AAA Server for Remote Access or ActivID Appliance for OTP validation. Using ActivID ActivClient, IT managers can easily enforce strong authentication policies when users login to their Windows desktop, or access the organization’s network, using a virtual private network (VPN), or remote desktop session.
