Case Study: a large financial institution achieves automated laptop security and tracking with HID Global IQ OM Label RFID tags

Large Financial Institution - Customer Case Study

a large financial institution faced significant security and efficiency challenges with its manual process for tracking employee laptops entering and leaving its corporate facility. The vendor, HID Global, was engaged to help automate this process using RFID technology, specifically requiring a tag that could work reliably on metallic laptop surfaces.

HID Global implemented its IQ OM Label RAIN® RFID UHF tags, which were small, cost-effective, and delivered 100% read rates even when laptops were inside bags. This solution enabled the institution to automatically identify and log laptops in under five seconds, drastically improving efficiency. The new system also provided a higher level of on-site security by cross-referencing laptop and employee entry times, leading the institution to deem the project a huge success.
