Identive Expands Presence in China Access Control Market
HIRSCH systems protect data centers for leading cloud services provider
SANTA ANA, Calif. and ISMANING, Germany, May 30, 2013 – Identive Group, Inc.
(NASDAQ: INVE; Frankfurt: INV), a provider of products and services for the identification,
security and RFID industries, today announced that a leading cloud computing operations
service provider in China is expanding its implementation of Identive’s HIRSCH access
control system at its central data center in Beijing as well as into two additional data centers
in other parts of the country.
“The cloud-based services market in China is growing rapidly, and it is important to this
sector to have seasoned security partners who can develop integrated systems that will scale
and adapt to the growth of each service provider. Identive’s technology, commitment and
experience convinced us that they are the right choice. The successful operation of the
HIRSCH access control system at the Beijing data center has deeply impressed our team
and our customer, and we are now moving forward with plans to connect the customer’s
additional sites into a global, unified, network control system. We look forward to ever closer
cooperation with Identive in the years to come,” said Eric Yu, general manager of Beijing
Eterna Technology Limited, Identive’s channel partner in China for access control and
security solutions.
The initial installation at the Beijing data center was completed in 2011 and includes 30
HIRSCH DIGI*TRAC M8N/M8N2 controllers to ensure that all personnel are properly
identified and authenticated at doors throughout the site. HIRSCH Velocity™ Security
Management Software helps control and monitor access to all key areas, from outer doors to
individual server racks and cages in the heart of the data center, and ensures that all events
are monitored, verifiable and auditable. The installation is now being expanded to include an
additional 30 DIGI*TRAC controllers. New installations at two newly constructed data centers
will utilize 50 DIGI*TRAC M8N2 control panels as well as Velocity Security Management
Software.
