Dye Sub Lanyards vs. Silkscreen Printed Lanyards

Many dealers sell and/or many schools choose silkscreen printed lanyards solely based on lower cost when compared to dye sublimation printed lanyards. Yes, the cost for silkscreen printed lanyards is lower and our silkscreen lanyards look great, but dye sub printed lanyards set the standard for durability since the print in integral to the fabric and will not wear off. In addition, dye sublimation printing allows for even greater detail on our HiRes fabric. Just ask Clayton County School District. Do you want lowest price or lowest total cost for a product that needs to last an entire school year with the best product testers on the planet?

Photo ID Cards

Despite not working at the prison since May last year, Ms Stanmore still has her ID badge and keys to confidential filing cabinets containing prisoner information.

“I think it is disgusting,” she said. “All they said to me when I contacted them about it was that I should post it to them but I do not think that is correct.” (entire article)

We say: Allowing former employees to leave with their corporate photo ID and keys is a breach of physical security. Trained security staff should be mindful that access control is only as good as enforcement and implementation of a solid plan.

I hate to wreck your happy dance, arresting officer said

Current photo ID is a requirement before collecting a lottery prize, said OLG spokesman Don Fister. If that ID does not match up, then the OPP officer on duty is notified.

When Shell went to the OLG, he produced a driver's licence from 1994 and the photo showed a much slimmer person. Since he had no other photo ID, Finley ran a police check and found the outstanding warrants. (more here)

We say: This is a reason that even we did not think of to keep your personal photo ID current.

Electronic identification sparks privacy debate

Climbing into his Volvo, outfitted with a Matrics antenna and a Motorola reader he'd bought on eBay for $190, Chris Paget cruised the streets of San Francisco with one objective: To read the identity cards of strangers, wirelessly, without ever leaving his car.

It took him 20 minutes to strike hacker's gold.

Zipping past Fisherman's Wharf, his scanner detected, then downloaded to his laptop, the unique serial numbers of two pedestrians' electronic U.S. passport cards embedded with radio frequency identification, or RFID, tags.

Within an hour, he'd “skimmed” the identifiers of four more of the new, microchipped PASS cards from a distance of 20 feet. (Click here for the rest of the article)

We say: Our FIPS-201 approved SkimSafe badge holders prevent unauthorized badge reading, or skimming. It's not hype. Who has your smart card been talking to?

Glitter Lanyards

Did you go to SHRM 2009 in New Orleans? If so, you probably got one of the new glitter lanyards from the Laminex booth. Tim and Jeff were mobbed for requests suring the show this year, and the glitter "Bling Bling" lanyard was probably number one on the list. Everyone had to have one! Melissa and Jason from BOA do a little modeling below:
