Additional functionality for security teams includes workflow support for Outlook-generated meetings; and draft mode for saving meeting information.

* SAFE Agent for HID Mobile Access

In addition to these important enhancements, other upgrades to the SAFE portfolio include increased PIAM functions, platform support, agent and peripheral framework, and VIM capabilities, all of which are geared to improve security effectiveness. Most recently, the SAFE Visitor Management Self-Service kiosk was implemented to allow visitors to check themselves in using a mobile device rather than having to wait at a reception desk.

"Technology exists to add value to an organization either by increasing revenue or decreasing costs," added Mr. Jain. "Our continued attention to improving SAFE's capabilities will help to ensure the value of both."
