3555 Legic Identsystems has announced it is developing Legic MMT to improve security and convenience for Mifare-based environments. The forthcoming development will be based on the company's Master-Token System Control, a proven concept which is in worldwide use. Legic says it will be able to provide security components to enable its customers to offer solutions which comply with the requirements of the technical guideline TR-03126-5 of the German Federal Office for Information Security (BSI). With this guideline, manufacturers and operators of physical access systems get recommendations how to achieve a new level of security within their installations.

According to Legic's Dr. Reinhard Kalla, "The extension of our Master-Token concept to the Mifare world allows our customers a new scope of applications. We are happy to be able to provide our know-how and components which enable a new level of security and simplicity in Mifare based identification systems."
