Single Card Solution Continues to Meet Multiple Government ID Needs
HID Global announced that Saudi Arabia has increased requirements for national ID cards based on the company’s LaserCard OSM (optical security media) technology. The multiple technology smart cards are issued to Saudi citizens for identification, e-government, and regional travel purposes.
