And on October 11, Gurpreet Manes, Axiad IDS Vice President of Technology will be participating on the eID Interoperability panel chaired by Edgar Bets, Associate Director, SCALA, Republic of Panama.
“We recognize that organizations of all sizes - especially those in regulated industries - require digital identities that can be trusted. This is particularly important in today’s digital world,” said Yves Audebert, co-founder and co-CEO of Axiad IDS. “Working together with organizations like SCALA we are helping governments modernize eID schemes to ensure security, ease of use, and speed of access in critical environments. Our newest Unified Credential Management System makes our solution particularly attractive to the Citizen ID market.”
Axiad IDS’ holistic approach integrates best-in-class products and services to allow governments to freely and confidently meet the wide-ranging needs of citizens. Whether on premises or in the cloud, Axiad IDS’ identity and access management solutions:
- Reduce implementation risks

Together Axiad IDS and SCALA are promoting the next generation of secure eID credentials which allow federal and state agencies to more simply integrate and deliver government services to citizens while providing more efficient authentication methods.
According to Edgar Bets, Associate Director, SCALA, Republic of Panama, “One of the future benefits of interoperability will be the ability for countries to authenticate each other’s identities, helping to eliminate fraud and create reciprocal recognition agreements. This will facilitate better interaction between cultures, businesses and diplomatic relations.”
“Our vision is to provide customers with the freedom to confidently access online information and perform digital transactions anytime, anywhere and from any device,” continued Audebert. “In the case of the Citizen ID market this means making access to eGovernment services more inclusive and readily available to authorized citizens, without compromising security.”
