Pleasanton, Calif., November 14, 2011 (euro adhoc) - idOnDemand, the
pioneer in smart identification and a business unit of Identive
Group, Inc. (NASDAQ: INVE: Frankfurt: INV), today announced that its
idOnDemand SmartID card now can be used to authenticate mobile
devices for clientless secure logon to the SymantecTM Validation and
ID Protection (VIP) Service.

idOnDemand´s enterprise customers now can fulfill the vision of their
employees carrying just one identity card to access multiple
buildings, log on to their computers, remotely access the company VPN
and securely access data from their mobile devices. By embedding a
near field communications (NFC) chip into each idOnDemand SmartID
card, securely accessing corporate resources through Symantec VIP is
now easier, safer and more convenient. Employees simply touch their
idOnDemand SmartID to their mobile device and authenticate directly
to the VIP application, or enter the One-Time Password (OTP) into
their existing VPN client from their computer.

"As enterprises continue to open up and access resources in the
cloud, strong authentication can provide increased levels of
security," said Kerry Loftus, Senior Director of Product Management,
Symantec. "By being able to securely access Symantec VIP with a smart
identity card, idOnDemand can now provide its customers that added
level of security, no matter the platform or device."

Symantec VIP delivers market-leading cloud-based strong
authentication for online access and transactions. A fully hosted
Software as a Service (SaaS) solution, Symantec VIP offers
enterprises a cost-effective way to give legitimate users access to
business resources, enterprise applications and online websites while
thwarting identity thieves and e-fraud cartels. The service
integrates with existing RADIUS-enabled VPN devices or other
corporate applications and supports a range of OATH-compliant OTP
methods, now including idOnDemand SmartID cards.

"idOnDemand makes deploying a single identity to an entire
organization easier and more convenient by eliminating the need for a
dedicated token and the burden of having to install or manage
software on the phone," said Jason Hart, Chief Executive Officer at
idOnDemand. "Now our customers can use their idOnDemand SmartID cards
to leverage the world-class VIP authentication infrastructure from
Symantec at an affordable, pay-as-you-go price and without having to
implement a complex infrastructure onsite."
