Border and Transportation Security

Cubic has incorporated biometric technology with its systems integration and established GO CARD® contactless smart card capabilities to offer a new open systems approach to providing a highly secure method for monitoring and controlling border and transportation access.

The company's handheld contactless smart card processor can be used for various security applications. Facial biometric and other security data stored on a contactless smart card is read and displayed on the unit's color screen. Security agents can use this device for security spot checks at remote locations at airports, seaports, borders and transportation facilities.

Cubic sees potential smart card security applications opportunities in both military and civilian markets at the Federal, state and local levels.

Our capabilities include:

• Systems integration and smart-card technologies for "Smart Borders" and airport security
• Established GO CARD ® contactless smart card with embedded chip
• Open systems platform for easy integration of multiple card systems and features, including biometrics
• Existing or contracted smart card systems in Washington, D.C., Chicago, Maryland, Virginia, Los Angeles, Minneapolis and London. A smart card-enabled system for light-rail transit to New York's John F. Kennedy International Airport is also due for launch soon.
