Partner Spotlight: Safetrust

Safetrust offers a comprehensive managed ecosystem that enables highly secure global identities to be deployed while enhancing the access experience in modern workplaces. Employees can securely navigate through various access points, such as secure doors, elevators, and turnstiles, by utilizing virtual credentials that can be conveniently stored in mobile phones or wearables. 


Safetrust eliminates the need to replace access readers by leveraging existing infrastructure, allowing centralized device management and providing a fast, cost-effective upgrade path to secure virtual credentials. Safetrust also offers a network-enabled reader with advanced sensor capabilities that blend conventional RFID and mobile credential technology, specifically designed for greenfield buildings.

Safetrust Transforms Access Control with Open Data Model and Vendor Flexibility

In the world of secure access solutions, Safetrust stands out with its innovative approach built on an open data model. This model empowers customers to use credentials across various vendors, ensuring flexibility and integration without being locked into a single system. One of the unique features of Safetrust’s solution is customer key management, which allows users to maintain independent control over encryption keys. This means customers can manage multiple keysets and handle key management efficiently, with the added benefit of auditing and event monitoring to track credential usage across different access points like doors, printers, kiosks, and rooms.



A significant advantage of Safetrust’s offering is that it allows customers to retain ownership of their keys, facilitating key exchange with any vendor they choose. This support for multi-vendor compatibility reduces deployment costs by using a single credential with multiple vendors’ readers.


Seamless Integration with Apple Wallet

Safetrust’s solution includes a rich SDK integration for embedding Apple Wallet into custom applications, along with a robust connector infrastructure for smooth onboarding and offboarding via IT, HR, and access control systems. This solution also integrates employee badges with Apple Wallet through the Safetrust Wallet mobile app, making installation and badge incorporation straightforward. Users simply install the app and tap “Add to Wallet” to get started.


Using an iPhone or Apple Watch near a Safetrust IoT Sensor, individuals can unlock doors, trigger printing, access vending machines, and more. The solution offers features like Express Mode for quick access, a power reserve for low battery scenarios, and the ability to remotely disable a badge via Apple’s Find My app, enhancing security if a phone is lost or misplaced.



Administrators benefit from streamlined badge management in Apple Wallet, enabling remote distribution and revocation of credentials within seconds, eliminating the need for physical cards. Privacy and security are prioritized, as employee badge data remains exclusively on the user’s device during Apple Wallet transactions, ensuring that sensitive information is protected.


Safetrust Partners with Tx Systems to Elevate Security with FIDO2 Integration

Safetrust supports FIDO2, offering enhanced security with phishing-resistant and passwordless authentication. FIDO2 credentials provide a seamless and secure user experience, reducing the risk of credential theft and streamlining access management. Tx Systems is the go-to partner for managing Safetrust's FIDO2 integration and support, ensuring top-notch implementation and ongoing assistance.


Safetrust's innovative approach to secure access solutions, with its open data model, customer key management, and multi-vendor compatibility, sets a new standard in the industry. Partnering with Apple further enhances its offerings, providing customers a versatile, secure, and convenient mobile access solution. As Safetrust continues to evolve, it remains dedicated to meeting its customers' diverse and changing needs, offering advanced and user-friendly solutions.
