At the Mobile World Congress in Barcelona, Gemalto is demonstratiung a solution for enterprise applications that transform mobile phones into secure identification and authentication devices for the workplace.

The authentication concept uses Gemalto’s UpTeq NFC SIM to enable secure entry to physical buildings as well as strong authentication on PCs, laptops, IT networks and other company services at the simple tap of a phone.

Gemalto’s UpTeq NFC SIM and embedded software support numerous industry standards for contactless access, and can effectively turn the mobile device into the key for many everyday tasks.

Also on display at the Mobile World Congress are downloadable apps like Gemalto’s Password Companion— a secure password management application that is securely embedded in the SIM replacing less secure, time-consuming login procedures.
