Subtitle: Latest polyright platform enables multi-function ID card
management for customers including Zurich University of the Arts

ZURICH, Switzerland, October 23, 2012 (euro adhoc) - Multicard, a
leading supplier of identity management and credential solutions, as
well as system integration services, and a business unit of Identive
Group, Inc. (NASDAQ: INVE, Frankfurt: INV), today announced an
advanced new version of its polyright software platform that enables
the integration of identity management, access, payment and related
functions onto a single identification credential. Addressing the
growing trend towards all-in-one ID cards, the new polyright V5
platform provides web-based, centralized management of cardholder
rights for a variety of security, financial and productivity
applications for campus, enterprise and healthcare environments.

"Multi-function ID cards are gaining traction in a variety of areas,
especially in campus environments where there are multiple types of
users with diverse identity management and access privilege needs.
Nearly two-thirds of universities and a growing number of colleges
and secondary schools in Switzerland already use the polyright
identity management platform to provide students, faculty and staff
with a single ID credential that allows each cardholder the
appropriate level of access to the computer network and to campus
dormitories and facilities, and also enables payment at the cafeteria
and for library, printing and copy services. This latest version of
the polyright platform includes tighter and easier integration of
different ID functions as well as new Internet-based access for both
program administrators and cardholders, including planned apps for
mobile devices such as the iPad®. This brings additional convenience
and department-level account management to our already popular
multi-function identity management platform," said Thierry Gattlen,
general manager of Multicard Switzerland.

The advanced polyright V5 platform seamlessly connects to Multicard's
polypurse™ e-wallet, which provides the web interface and transaction
software that allows cardholders to buy a coffee at the campus café,
rent a bicycle or perform other payment and loyalty functions using
their campus ID cards. The cards are easily reloaded with cash value
over the Internet by linking to bank accounts or credit cards.
Tightly integrated with the new platform is polyright ID Manager, a
comprehensive identity management module capable of setting
cardholder rights for physical access, network access, e-purse
functions, net printing and copying, and other applications.
polyright ID Manager works with multiple RFID card technologies,
including LEGIC®, MIFARE™ and others, to support mixed-user
environments.

One of the first customers to benefit from the new polyright V5
platform is the Zurich University of the Arts (ZHdK). MC polyright, a
division of Multicard, is implementing the new platform for ZHdK to
enable all of the more than 2,500 students and 1,200 faculty and
staff to use their university-issued ID cards for a variety of daily
activities around campus. The system will allow administrators to
issue and renew ID cards, personalize them, and most importantly,
manage all the access rights for each cardholder on multiple
applications from one central platform. This means changes to user
privileges only need to be made one time to be effective for all
applications on a given card, rather than updated individually for
each application for which that user has rights. In addition, MC
polyright is providing the university with point-of-sale terminals,
readers and implementation services to enable the ID cards to be used
for payment at campus cafeterias, bistros, vending machines and the
library. The ID cards are also accepted for payment by more than 40
multi-functional printers on campus and allow faculty and staff to
charge print/copy service fees back to their respective departments.
The comprehensive identity management solution will also support
inter-campus physical access control. Students of the adjacent Zurich
University of Applied Sciences (ZHAW) may be granted guest access to
certain facilities and services on the arts campus, with ID cards
issued and managed using the new polyright platform.

"We are excited to be implementing a single-card identity management
solution on our campus, and happy to have found a strong partner in
MC polyright," said Alessandra Zanotelli, ZHdK facility manager and
director of the Toni-Areal ID management project that includes the
ZHdK campus. "In the past, every activity requiring some sort of ID
management was handled by a separate solution, each with its own
philosophy and without coordination. This was cumbersome and
expensive to manage and made it very difficult to add new services
such as cashless payment. Multicard's integrated ID solution provides
automated and efficient coordination between all functions, with
centralized management of access privileges for each of the
functions. The strong reputation of the polypurse e-wallet solution
in Switzerland was also a deciding factor for us." Multicard is now
offering its polyright V5 software to new and current customers,
which include the University of Zurich and six other universities in
Switzerland, numerous colleges and secondary schools, large
corporations including Philip Morris, SICPA Holding, Kudelski Group
and Securitas, and several private hospitals.
