Austin, TX, September 11, 2023 -- HID, a leader in trusted identity solutions, today announced it will preview its new centralized reader management solution, HID Linq, at GSX 2023. HID Linq is designed to make the configuration and updates of physical access systems simpler, faster and more efficient.

“Managing readers has become more time-consuming than ever, and we are excited to be showcasing our solution at GSX,” said Sanjay Roy, Senior Director for Device Management with HID. “Our initial HID Linq offering is compatible with our entire line of HID Signo readers and its capabilities will be extended over time across a wide landscape of devices, connectivity and management software.
