NewBold Plastic Cards Now Offering RFID Shielded Sleeves

July 10, 2012 - PRLog -- SECURE RFID BLOCKING SLEEVES

As “Identity Theft” and “Electronic Pick-Pocketing” remain in the international headlines, we are pleased to offer a trending product; Secure RFID Blocking Sleeves.  The shielded sleeves are available in credit card as well as passport size and offer secure protection against RFID threat for ATM, credit card, driver license, passports and passport cards, etc.  


PROTECT YOUR INFORMATION:
Your personal information can be stolen easily if you carry RFID enabled credit cards.  A credit card reader can be easily purchased and concealed allowing an “electronic pick-pocket” to freely steal nearby credit card information without the card holder ever knowing it happened.

The secure blocker products are designed to shield all contactless credit cards, passports, drivers licenses, ISO 14443A/B and EPC Gen1/Gen2 contactless smart cards; any contactless card that operates at 13.56 Mhz and above. It does not shield non-smart cards (older 125khz proximity cards). On cards that include a secondary 125 khz antenna added for backward compatibility only the new 13.56 Mhz interface is shielded. The 13.56 Mhz interface is generally the only one with personal data.

Shields these types of items:
*All new contactless credit cards
*Passports and Passport Cards
*Enhanced Driver's Licenses such as Washington, Michigan, New York, and Vermont
*Many transit cards such as the DC Metro and Boston Charlie™ card
*TWIC™ (Transportation Worker Identification Credential)
*HID iClass, HID MIFARE®, HID FlexSmart, DESFire
*Indala FlexSmart
*Any card ISO 14443A/B or ISO 15693 compatible
*All MIFARE® and DESFire compatible cards
*sQuid cards used in Europe
*Military CAC (Common Access Cards)
*New Government PIV (Personal Identity Verification) cards such as the Linc-Pass
*New long range RFID EPC Gen1/Gen2 cards

The sleeves may be personalized (up-to-4 colors).  Corporate marketing opportunities are endless!  An affordable promotional solution, when given to customers, the sleeves provide company recognition each time the card is used.
