MorphoTrak offers a complete range of biometric reader and software products specifically developed, compliance tested, and approved for use in Transportation Worker Identification Credential (TWIC) Systems mandated by the Transportation Security Administration (TSA) and U.S. Coast Guard (USCG). MorphoAccess-TWIC readers complete all mandated TWIC card verification and cardholder authentications independent of the physical access control system (PACS).  The readers are also remotely configurable to support all Maritime Security (MARSEC) modes of operation.

Among MorphoTrak’s four readers on the TSA Initial Capability Evaluation or ICE List, are the IP65 rated Outdoor MorphoAccess and the MorphoCheck handheld reader. MorphoConnect TWIC software is also available to allow operators to read TWIC card data. This user-friendly Windows™ application software allows operators to automatically read and authenticate TWIC card data, check certificates and Hotlists, and biometrically authenticate the cardholder.   TWIC Connect can bridge the data acquisition needs of a client while supporting PACS systems that cannot enroll TWIC cards themselves. For integrators and developers desiring to integrate TWIC card enrollment functions directly in to their PACS, there is also a TWIC Software Development Kit (SDK).The MorphoTrak TWIC Suite meets currently mandated government specifications.

The TWIC™ requirements are very specific regarding how contact and contactless biometric readers may access the information contained in the TWIC™ credential.
