Crescendo® is a credit card-sized multi-technology smart card that enables logical and physical access control, providing out of-the-box, standards-compliant support for hundreds of logical access applications, and also serving as an employee ID badge. Crescendo cards contain powerful contact smart chips with cryptographic co-processors, based on the Java Card operating system, capable of performing advanced operations. To meet the needs of current physical access control customers, Crescendo can be customized with the contactless physical access control technologies you choose. By combining these two common functions on one card, Crescendo offers the lowest total cost of ownership (TCO) for a combined logical and physical access control solution. An off-the-shelf solution, Crescendo allows a much faster turn time and lower minimum order quantity compared to many other contact smart card solutions. Also, because the cards are fully produced within HID Global, the ordering process is greatly simplified, eliminating the risk associated with working with multiple suppliers. As part of the HID on the Desktop™ solution, Crescendo contact smart cards represent the highest level of network security, working with highly developed Public Key Infrastructures (PKI). The features of the standard Crescendo product are extended using Navigo Server software to provide a simple management solution for card PIN and PUK as well as emergency access functionality
