HID Global predicts trends for Identity Technology in 2017 – the Magazine BIT, computers for all.

The company anticipates that trends in 2017 will transform the way the identities of confidence, are used with smart cards, mobile devices, portable devices, chips embedded and other "smart objects", especially in industries that are focused on regulatory compliance, such as the governments, finance, and health. This change precipitará the movement of legacy systems to the NFC (Near Field Communication), Bluetooth Low Energy (Low Energy Consumption), and advanced technology of smart card, says HID Global.

The forecast for 2017 is also based on a breakthrough in the adoption of technology of identity mobile. Exemplifying the trends of the entire industry, HID Global has experienced an increase in client implementations of their mobility solutions is large and has perspectives for future installations of the customers to make the optimized scan of identities for mobile applications.

"THE HID Global predicts the main trends based on our wide vision of the market in close collaboration with clients and partners who are evaluating and implementing innovative solutions around the world," said Stefan Widing, president and CEO of the company. "We are at the forefront of major technological changes over the years and HID Global believes that 2017 will mark an important stage in the industry, as organizations seek to use the widest range of smart devices. This will directly affect the way customers see and use trusted identities in mobile devices and smart cards to more activities in connected environments in the coming years."

HID Global is focused on four significant trends in 2017 that will influence the way organizations create, manage and use identities from the trust.

1. Increased adoption of mobile devices and smart cards advanced

• 2017 will see a higher consumption per security, with the growing demand of users who want to open doors and sign in to cloud-based features, in addition to being able to do the printing of personalized documents and is tailored to their needs and to implement credentials printed remotely, or perform other transactions, and daily activities using trusted identities on your phone, laptop, or a smart card.

• ID trusted that integrate security, privacy, and convenience provide a new level of security for these applications and transactions, while they are positioned in a unique way to make secure access more personalized to the individual.

• The industry is going to look for a complete management of relationships and identity that consider the need to grant access based on the context or circumstances of authentication appropriate to the risk between trusted identities assigned to people, devices, data, and things in smart offices, buildings, and other environments that are becoming more connected every day.

2. Greater emphasis on the cloud through hybrid solutions

• organizations are recognizing the interdependencies of the technologies and platforms needed for business agility, cost management and to provide a better user experience within a mobile workforce, or for the digital commerce and relationship management that continues to require more reach, flexibility and security.

• In the banking sector, government, healthcare and other regulated markets, the authentication multifactorial for physical access control and IT will have more opportunities to incorporate into integrated systems that also provide you with an experience that is more convenient for users and increase the security.

• This model will make it easier for administrators to implement and maintain an integrated system throughout the life cycle of the identity, since its incorporation into the system until its decommissioning.

• will Allow you to monitor and manage the access rights of employees and their function changes within an organization, ensuring that employees only have access to what they need in your current job.

• The issuance of credentials for identification cards physical, you’ll also experience a digital transformation, as the use of technologies in the cloud will allow models of managed services for printing and encoding of badges.

3. The need to ensure the Internet of Things Reliable (IoTT)

• trusted identities will increasingly be employed to help protect, personalize and enhance the user experience in a growing range of industrial segments that are embracing the power of the market of the IoT.

• The organizations seek to streamline processes and operations using systems real-time location, feature location based on presence and proximity, solutions, monitoring of conditions, goals and models of cloud-based applications IoT emerging using Bluetooth Low Energy. These applications will include an increasing number of cases of efficient use of energy, productivity and security that they will need to know the identity of the occupants in a physical space to manage the environmental conditions, booking meeting rooms and automatically configure audio-visual equipment, and alarms.

• solutions based on Bluetooth Low Energy Consumption also will proceed with the evidence of the presence existing to include predictive analytics and feature-based technologies based on location.

4. Incorporation of trusted identities deeply into the daily activities for businesses and consumers

• the identities of The trust will become a feature inherent in most use cases, rather than simply additional capacity. This trend of "security by design" will give rise to many of the approaches that are most convenient for the use of digital identities in an increasing variety of activities, services and industries.

• Along with the use cases of secure access known, there will be new applications, such as the ability to bring together employees to deal with emergencies, as well as the need to more accurately determine who is in a building in real time.

• New features for managing and using IDs trusted will be driven by the increase of temporary offices, employees with knowledge of mobile and the evolution of the workplace, where the adaptation to the preferences of the talent pool today is in the lead to the necessity of working spaces more open and flexible. Consumers also will see trusted identities used in many scenarios on a daily basis, how to ensure the authorized use of the fleet of machines in corporate and heavy, in addition to creating new ways to protect students and validate the drivers.

HID Global also notes trends for the three verticals with the largest interest in new technologies: banking, government, and health.

In the case of banks, the transformation of digital identity will allow a user experience consistent across multiple service channels. Issuing instant cards, automatic notifications for "out of band" and ID digital that will drive the industry.

For governments, the trusted identities will change the way citizens interact with the agencies and government systems. Passports, ids, national driver’s licences, and other credentials will coexist with new disruptive technologies to change the way the ID’s are issued by the government and used by citizens.

Already in the health, where the environment is increasingly connected, the institutions will seek to implement systems to improve the patient experience and increase efficiency, preserving and managing access to equipment, facilities, patient data and prescriptions, electronic of controlled substances (EPCS).
