An Affordable, Effective Biometric Access Control Solution for Airports
With Civix ASC Access cards, airports can quickly and easily implement biometric access control without needing to invest in or wait for new hardware.
HOW IT WORKS
FINGERPRINT ON CARD
Airport personnel each have a card containing their unique fingerprint data on a secure chip.
MATCHES WITH CARDHOLDER
When placed near a reader, the card compares the fingerprint of the person holding the card with the fingerprint data stored on the card.
GRANTS ACCESS
If they are a match, the card generates an access code and directs the control infrastructure to grant access.

Compatible with Existing Readers. No New Hardware Required
Since the authentication process is self-contained within the ASC Access card, biometric data is not transmitted–meaning separate biometric reader hardware is not required.ASC Access cards are fully compatible with traditional NFC card readers, so airports can use them to implement two-factor authentication without upgrading the existing hardware, saving tons of time and money.
SECURE & PRIVATE
- Biometric data never leaves the ASC Access card. Finger print capture, feature extraction, and comparison are performed within the card’s secure microcontrollers.
- Biometric data is stored in theASC Access card, not in the background system. It is compliant to GDPR (DSGVO).
- Because the legitimate user must touch the sensor for their ASC Access card to work, the cards cannot be shared –and lost or stolen cards are useless.
