Authentication software

Giesecke & Devrient (G&D), working with EXTENSION, Inc. and TrustBearer Labs, has developed a smart card-based solution that lets health care providers manage the security requirements outlined in the President’s economic stimulus bill. EXTENSION, Inc. has integrated the G&D Patient Health card and TrustBearer Access authentication software to create EXTENSION Health Connect. This solution is being deployed at Mount Sinai Medical Center in New York City. (Paul Contino, Vice President of Information Technology at Mount Sinai Medical Center.)
