Avolon is now using HID Global’s Mobile Access solution to secure its corporate facilities all over the world. HID Mobile Access is based on HID’s Seos credentialing technology, which allows Avolon to replace physical ID cards with digital IDs that can be sent directly to a mobile device.
HID Approve is a multi-factor authentication solution from HID Global that delivers a simple and secure way for you to validate transactions and authenticate. With push notifications and a simple swipe-gesture you can approve an authentication or transaction request on your mobile device.
The digital IDs are distributed to Avolon staff through a mobile app. Employees can then present those IDs at HID readers that have been installed at the doors of various Avolon buildings to gain contactless access to those locations. The app is available through iOS and Android, while the IDs themselves can be issued and revoked remotely through a cloud portal that allows administrators to manage the system from a single centralized location.
The transition to Mobile Access began at Avolon’s headquarters in Dublin, and then expanded to the company’s facilities in New York, Florida, and Hong Kong based on the success of that initial deployment. The Dublin project was carried out in collaboration with the Irish systems integrator Summit Security Systems. Avolon, meanwhile, is an aircraft leasing company, and is already moving forward with plans to bring HID Mobile Access to its Singapore site.
“We needed to maintain a secure perimeter, but we did not want the security to be a barrier,” said Avolon Facilities Project Manager Allan Dawson. “Using a mobile phone is much more convenient than an access card and phones tend not to get left behind.”
“HID Mobile Access makes touchless access control possible for a more seamless user experience, which is appealing to many organizations in today’s new normal,” said HID Global VP and Physical Access Managing Director Harm Radstaak. “The scalability of our solution also lays the groundwork for Avolon to easily extend mobile access across more of its facilities.”
HID Global’s Seos technology was recently built into the design of the latest Nymi Band, while Fidesmo is integrating it into secure element chips for other wearable devices. Seos credentials have also been used to secure a Newmont metal mine in Mexico.

HID Global, a worldwide leader in trusted identity solutions, today announced that leading aerospace company Avolon has selected the HID Mobile Access® solution for physical access at its headquarters in Dublin and other locations worldwide.
Powered by HID’s award-winning Seos® credential technology, the solution enables Avolon to issue staff Mobile IDs to smartphones for building access and provides an efficient management platform for its global network of offices.
Avolon is one of the world’s largest aircraft leasing companies servicing many of the world’s major airlines. HID partnered with Ireland-based systems integrator Summit Security Systems Ltd to deploy the HID Mobile Access solution and HID readers throughout Avolon’s Dublin campus. Mobile IDs are sent to Avolon staff via an app on a user’s Android or iOS mobile device so they can quickly and easily use their phones to gain access to Avolon facilities.
“We needed to maintain a secure perimeter, but we did not want the security to be a barrier. Using a mobile phone is much more convenient than an access card and phones tend not to get left behind,” said Allan Dawson, facilities project manager at Avolon. “We were looking for a system that was highly flexible, highly mobile and highly secure. HID has offered us that and the solution gives us everything that we want in terms of security and flexibility.”
The HID Mobile Access solution facilitates around-the-clock office access for staff members and equips administrators to manage access rights from a centralized, cloud-based portal. Since Mobile IDs are issued remotely, they can easily be issued or revoked for added convenience and efficiency.
