Demonstrations:

  • HID Approve™ multi-factor authentication solution: Combines the security of public key-based cryptography with the convenience of mobile push notifications for approving electronic prescribing transactions with a simple swipe of a mobile device. FIPS 140-2 cryptography ensures that HID Approve meets U.S. Healthcare EPCS requirements. 
  • Tap-in/Tap-out authentication using highly secure HID credentials: Attendees will experience the ease of using Seos® credentials to tap in and out of Microsoft Windows running on HP Healthcare Edition hardware.
