Google the term "fake ID," and you'll quickly have a long list of companies making counterfeit cards at your fingertips. What would happen if your ID cards were fraudulently reproduced? In today’s world, it's important to protect our people and our property. Below are a few steps you can take to improve security and reduce the threat of counterfeit ID cards:
1. Add visual security to your ID. We offer a variety of options with visual security. Solutions start at entry level options like the cost efficient HoloKote by Magicard and go up to more advanced solutions like customized cards or custom holographic laminate (commonly used in government applications like driver’s licenses).
2. Know who is in your building at all times by incorporating a visitor management system to record guests entering.
3. Take your visitor management system a step further by adding expiring badges for guests, contractors, and volunteers. Expiring badges are a great way to visually see if a person belongs on the property. Added bonus, you don’t need to collect the expiring badges when they leave!
4. Decrease the chance of an unauthorized person from printing IDs by using ID software that offers a password login with definable user privileges.
