October is Cybersecurity Awareness Month! 🖥️ At HID, we spend every day thinking about how to protect people, systems and identities. Cybersecurity plays a huge part in that process, and it's a responsibility that extends well beyond IT teams alone. Networks and data can become compromised and personal information can be stolen by one single click, so daily habits and the right knowledge are paramount. Keep an eye out this month for features on some of the team members behind security at HID, their thoughts on the importance of Cybersecurity Awareness Month, and tips and advice for staying secure in a digital world. #CybersecurityAwarenessMonth #Cybersecurity

Wondering how ESD boxes and RFID can work together? We found out. 💡 Don't miss the next LinkedIn Live from HID - Identification Technologies for a conversation on how ESD materials can disrupt RFID performance and what our hosts discovered when they put that tech to the test. Happening this Wednesday!⬇️
RFID works until ESD materials change the rules. 💡 ESD boxes protect sensitive electronic components, but their conductive properties can make reliable RFID identification a real challenge. So, HID and Mieloo & Alexander put RFID to the test 👇 Join Lauri Hyytinen, Sander Merkx and Ayyaz Bucha for a LinkedIn Live session exploring what disrupts RFID performance on ESD materials, what the testing revealed and what companies should consider when approaching similar applications. From RFID Challenge to Working Solution What We Learned From Testing RFID on ESD Boxes 📅 September 23, 2026 🕒 4:00 PM CET Discover the challenge, the testing and the expertise behind a working solution.
