MaxID announces new webinar on identity and security

Tuesday, April 20, 2010

MaxID Corp., a provider of identity and security solutions, has announced it will be hosting a series of upcoming webinars involving the subjects of identity management and security with topics including Transportation Worker Identification Credential Compliance, biometrics and identity dominance.

Specifically, officials from MaxID are expecting much of the webinar content to be useful to those involved in ports or maritime industries and power generation industries where standards are already set for authorized physical access control, however, due to the range and depth of topics covered, they see the webinars to hold educational benefits for many more. The webinars are scheduled once a week starting April 28 at 11 am ET. [end]
