HID’s IdenTrust digital certificates are widely recognized by government agencies, global financial institutions and enterprise corporations around the world. IdenTrust products enable organizations to effectively manage the risks associated with identity authentication and ensure trust in the identity of a person or a thing.

“HID’s IdenTrust digital certificates once again prove to be the most trusted in the world,” said Brad Jarvis, Vice President and Managing Director, IAM Solutions with HID Global. “Continuing the solid growth of our IdenTrust user base, HID Global provides digital certificate services from a secure and scalable platform, as part of the widest range of authentication solutions in the industry.”

In addition, IdenTrust digital certificates are particularly useful for surveillance (cameras, video management), transportation infrastructure (air, cars and trains), healthcare (medical devices) and financial services (ATMs) end-points. The rapid expansion of the Internet of Things (IoT) as well as mobile applications is also driving the increased adoption of digital certificates.
