The emergence
of smart cards has been a major focus of the company
and the card issuance industry. The card that
was once a banking device has literally transformed
into a portable computer you can put in your wallet.
NBS is at the forefront of meeting the needs of
the financial world. Today, personalized cards
and increasingly smart objects, such as PCMCIA,
Compact Flash, MultiMediaCard, Smart media, Memory
Stick, USB drives and SIM cards, can provide an
ever more cost-effective, secure and highly branded
mechanism to link your business or organization
to your customers. NBS is building on its three
decades of experience to shape the future.
NBS specializes in the design and manufacture
of high to low volume card-based personalization
equipment and software. We are focused on the
production, testing and personalization of smart
cards, smart objects, electronic labels and
micro-modules, RFID products for applications
in telecommunications (SIM), ID, security, major
card issuers and transportation, and for many
other organizations that require a full range
of issuance applications. Having one company
to provide both local and central requirements
is smart.

| Secure ID Solutions for a New World
NBS is at the heart of a new evolution in secure
card technologies and techniques for both high-capacity
centralized and instant card personalization.
Smart cards offer over 100 times the calculation
and storage capacity of other types of cards,
allowing them to handle more complicated security
applications and security demands such as cryptographic
algorithms, particularly in the area of biometrics
which requires a significant amount of memory.
Secure ID for Government
The increased demand for security over the
past few years, developing democracies, increased
border control, and standardization of existing
IDs has created needs in a variety of personalization
technologies. Examples of new security technologies
and techniques required by today’s governments
include laser engraving, optical encoding, micro-printing,
dye sublimation printing, retransfer printing,
PIN/biometrics chip cards, and a range of secure
lamination techniques.
Federal, State and Local Government agencies
involved in numerous card issuance projects
have turned to NBS for our expertise in secure
card technologies and techniques for both high-capacity
centralized and on-demand card personalization.
We are recognized globally for our expertise
in the implementation of card personalization
programs such as the Department of Defense’s
Common Access Card (CAC) program.
Corporations, schools, clubs and other commercial
enterprises
A range of other organizations can also take
advantage of NBS’s expertise in the secure
ID market. NBS has successfully completed many
secure ID card projects globally —from
small instant issuance projects to high-profile
citizenship ID card projects. Whether you need
is a local printer for low volume issuance,
or a higher volume, more secure, central issuance,
NBS is shaping the future of how your organization
deals with security with the hardware, software,
and more importantly, the expertise to make
your ID more secure in its design and issuance. |
