how the RAPIDGate Program works
The RAPIDGate® Program improves security and streamlines access through two integrated processes: registration & screening, and access management & reporting.
Registration & Screening:
Personnel at vendor, supplier, and service provider companies register
for the Program at on-site Registration Stations. The Program screens
each registrant to identify disqualifying events, including felonies,
all sexual offenses, and listing on terrorist watch lists. Qualifying
personnel receive a fraud-resistant RAPIDGate Program Badge, which may serve as a credential for access to multiple RAPIDGate facilities. Badgeholders are re-screened approximately every 92 days.
Access Management & Reporting: Security personnel at participating RAPIDGate
facilities scan the badge to identify company personnel and confirm
access privileges in seconds. Biometric verification helps prevent
unauthorized use of a badge. The Program maintains records of all
personnel accesses and provides facilities with monthly activity
reports.
Eid Passport® delivers the RAPIDGate Program as a turnkey solution: Eid Passport installs and maintains all equipment, and provides account management and call center services to manage ongoing operations. The company tailors each RAPIDGate Program deployment to the access protocols of individual facilities, working with facility security to improve existing security measures. Moreover, the RAPIDGate Program is complementary to and consistent with the Homeland Security Presidential Directive 12 (HSPD-12) and the Federal Information Processing Standard 201 (FIPS 201). U.S. Patent No. 6,779,721 applies to certain methods, products, services and/or systems within the RAPIDGate Program.
In operation since 2004, the RAPIDGate Program is protecting Department of Defense and Department of Homeland Security installations today. Thousands of businesses count on the Program to ensure that their employees meet the standards of participating RAPIDGate facilities, and that the employees can quickly and efficiently access those facilities to get their work done. At the same time, the Program has helped government security personnel quickly and accurately manage access for the civilian workforce on which they depend.
