Intercede Integrates With Award-Winning Daon Platform
Intercede announces integration with Daon's award-winning software product line.
Leicestershire, England (Issues Wire / PRWEB) January 31, 2008 -- Intercede Group plc, a leading developer and supplier of smart card and identity management software, today announced integration with Daon's award-winning software product line. This integration allows customers to pick and choose modules from both Intercede and Daon to improve the overall fit of the applications and reduce the associated development costs incurred. The combined identity platform is built on a flexible business process workflow to allow the rapid configuration for the delivery of solution sets most recently proven on a large national homeland security credentialing deployment.
Intercede's MyID(R)is a smart card and identity credential management system that enables organizations to enroll, issue and manage the lifecycle of smart cards, USB authentication devices, biometrics and other identity credentials. Daon, the award-winning global provider of identity assurance software and services, announced today that Intercede has successfully integrated their MyID product with Daon's identity management platform through a smart-card management system snap-in.
Richard Parris, Intercede CEO said, "The decision to more closely integrate Intercede's and Daon's identity and credential management systems was a natural choice given our successful collaboration on ID projects for high profile US Government and Defense customers. The depth and comprehensiveness of this joint solution redefines the competitive landscape for customers and integrators of large scale credentialing projects."
According to Daon's CEO Tom Grissen, "This integration of Intercede and Daon products enables complete solutions for biometric-based smart cards and allows both companies' customers to benefit by giving their employees access to both physical and logical resources. Daon and Intercede have successfully worked jointly on a number of critical programs and we look forward to expanding the relationship."
By fully integrating our products, Intercede increases speed in development of robust products and solutions, reduces risk by leveraging a solid technical framework for identity management and gains new functionality that compliments the MyID product. This integration of complimentary products provides customers in the government, financial, healthcare, educational and pharmaceutical sectors a secure and flexible enterprise-wide identity solution.
