Senture Security Solutions LLC, a security solutions integrator, and CoreStreet, the provider of credential validation solutions, announced they will team up to deploy national security programs for both the maritime and transportation industries, as well as the defense, homeland security and emergency management markets.
With more than 10 years of smart card and biometrics experience, Senture offers its customers a unique balance of Transportation Worker Identification Credential regulatory and technical expertise. Maintaining product and technology neutrality, customers benefit from Senture’s hardware and software components to complement its TWICReady services.
The CoreStreet PIVMAN for TWIC Solution enables Transportation Security Administration-approved mobile devices to verify the identity and attributes of TWIC card carriers. The CoreStreet Enabled devices are synchronized with the authoritative source for this information, the TSA TWIC hotlist. By having this secured data resident on mobile devices, operators have the ability to determine if the TWIC credential is still valid.
Unlike other point solutions, the CoreStreet for TWIC Solution has upgrade options to validate and verify off card attributes for the Department of Defense’s Common Access Card, the Personal Identity Verification cards used by civilian agencies and the Emergency Response Official Community’s First Responder Authentication Credential used by federal and state emergency management officials. This allows mobile operators to make the same type of informed decisions whether presented with any of the government credentials.
