HID Signo

Next-generation reader for cards, mobile and biometrics — migration-ready.

// Product Overview

What is HID Signo?

HID Signo is HID's next-generation reader line, designed to future-proof your access control at the door. It reads a wide range of credential technologies — including physical smart cards (HID, Seos, iCLASS), HID Mobile Access via Bluetooth/NFC, and optional biometrics — so you can migrate from legacy to modern credentials at your own pace, reader by reader. HID Signo communicates to the Aero controller via OSDP secure channel, eliminating eavesdropping and reader tampering. Security Shells Infotech deploys Signo as part of end-to-end HID access solutions.
