Cheetah SE and SE Bio Readers
Innometriks Cheetah SE High Assurance Smart Card Reader is a low cost, compact, highly secure keypad reader that is designed to meet 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 SE Reader’s advanced architecture allows seamless integration into a range of existing physical access control systems for authentication and network environments for administration.
With the Cheetah SE Bio model biometric enrollments are linked to a card and synced to appropriate readers for dual-factor authentication and access. Alternately, templates may be stored on the card itself and read through a contactless transaction during an authentication.
