A high-security tag is a type of access credential in the shape of a small, round sticker. Other types of access credentials include access cards, key fobs, and mobile-based apps.
High-security tags work the same way as high-security RFID access cards and key fobs. Tags are particularly useful for businesses located inside a multi-tenant building with a separate building entry system. Instead of carrying two access cards — one for the building and one for the office — an employee can simply attach the tag to the back of their building entry card.
If the tag and the building entry card both use a similar radio frequency, they may not work properly. Therefore, it is important to test for potential interference before selecting this option.
High-security tags are great in that they can attach to most surfaces, are cost-effective, and are encrypted for security. However, in the case of the tag and building entry card sharing a similar radio frequency they may not be the best option.
