Company to Provide TWIC Plus Portable Hand Held
Readers
Intellicheck Mobilisa, Inc. (NYSE MKT:IDN), a global leader in
identity solutions and wireless security systems, has been awarded
a $333K contract to provide 33 IM2610 TWIC Plus portable hand held
readers to the Washington State Ferries, operated by the Washington
State Department of Transportation.
The Intellicheck Mobilisa readers will seamlessly integrate into
the Washington State Ferries’ existing access control security
system for the purpose of authenticating and enrolling Washington
State Ferry employee TWIC cards, authenticating TWIC cards of
visitors and vendors who have the card, as well as reading drivers
licenses, passports and current Washington State Ferries employee
ID cards.
Installation, which began this week, is expected to be completed
by late August.
Dr. Nelson Ludlow, CEO of Intellicheck Mobilisa, said, “The
Washington State Ferries system operates an extensive set of routes
around Puget Sound and between the Seattle-Tacoma area and
Vancouver Island, British Columbia. We believe our ID card readers
can play a significant role in enhancing the security of employees
of this transportation network and its passengers. We look forward
to working with the Washington State Department of Transportation
to implement our technology.”
TWIC is an initiative of the TSA and U.S. Coast Guard to provide
tamper-resistant biometric identification cards to port facility
workers. The U.S. government has given guidance through the Notice
of Proposed Rule Making (NPRM) that large passenger ferry systems,
cruise ships, major cargo or container ships, along with major
ports will require TWIC cards and readers.
