Cheetah Reader
Innometriks Cheetah High Assurance Smart Card Reader is a highly secure multi-modal reader that is modularized to keep pace with implementation paths recommended by NIST SP800-116, which provides Federal agencies and non-governmental organizations with risk-based guidelines for the incremental rollout of PIV-enabled access points. Cheetah’s advanced architecture allows seamless integration with a range of existing physical access control systems for authentication and network environments for administration. The Cheetah Reader network-based services allow you to manage enterprise installations from a central location using a secure browser. You can also manage all network-based firmware upgrades, use configuration files to easily set up and deploy large systems ensuring correct settings on each reader and remotely manage licenses.
