LEGIC announces Connect platform surpasses 14 million users

LEGIC has announced that LEGIC Connect now provides its core mobile credentialing service to over 14 million end-users in over 200 countries, with a growth rate of over 50% per year.

Provided as a cloud-based software as a service (SaaS), the platform creates and securely deploys mobile credentials to Android and iOS smartphones anywhere in the world. According to LEGIC, its customers include large companies, hotel chains, campuses, governments and hundreds of system integrators who leverage mobile credentials to create useful and innovative mobile-based products and services.

The platform comprises an OWASP-ASVS audited Trusted Service hosted on AWS, a Mobile SDK plus LEGIC Security Modules which include an RF transceiver (Bluetooth, NFC, RFID) and tamper-proof Secure Element (SM-6300, SM-6310). These modules are embedded in infrastructure-devices such as electronic locks, mobility vehicles or IoT sensors.

Together, these components establish a cryptographically secure, bidirectional channel from back-end administration system to smartphone to infrastructure. In addition to credentials, any data needing secure distribution to end devices such as firmware, cryptographic keys, whitelists or certificates can be transported via the platform.
