How to Choose the Best Mobile TWIC Reader
When it comes to ensuring secure and efficient access control at your facility, selecting the best mobile TWIC reader is essential. Whether you're overseeing operations at a port, oil refinery, chemical plant, or maritime facility, your choice of TWIC reader can have a significant impact on security, compliance, and operational efficiency.
At MozaicID, we’ve been a trusted provider of mobile TWIC readers since 2008, including serving as the sole provider to the U.S. Coast Guard through the USCG TWIC Reader Contract. Here’s what you need to know to make an informed decision when searching for the best TWIC reader.
1. Cyber Attack Risks: Is Your Mobile TWIC Reader Solution Secure?
In today’s digital landscape, cyber threats are a growing concern. Many TWIC reader solutions rely on network connectivity, leaving them vulnerable to hacking or unauthorized access.
MozaicID’s mobile TWIC readers are a stand-alone solution that doesn’t require network IT infrastructure or connectivity to electronically validate credentials, drastically lowering the risk of cyberattacks. Our readers operate independently, providing a secure and reliable option for any facility.
2. Power Outages and Connectivity Issues
One of the most common pain points in access control is losing functionality during power outages or in areas with no Wi-Fi or cellular service. Your TWIC reader must be ready to work under any circumstances.
MozaicID’s mobile TWIC readers are fully operational even when the power is out or there’s no network connectivity. Whether you're working in a remote facility or dealing with an unexpected outage, our readers keep your operations running smoothly.
3. Downtime Due to Low Battery
Imagine a line of trucks or personnel waiting to enter your facility, only for your TWIC reader to run out of battery. Downtime not only delays operations but can also create security vulnerabilities.
MozaicID’s MCR V3 and MCR-LT models are equipped with hot-swappable batteries, so you’ll never experience downtime due to a dead battery. When the power runs low, simply replace the battery and continue scanning—no waiting, no interruptions.
4. Costly Installation Requirements
Installing TWIC readers across a facility can be expensive, especially when it requires additional IT infrastructure or modifications to your site.
MozaicID’s mobile TWIC readers are deployable right out of the box, with no facility installation required. This means you save on installation costs while enjoying a hassle-free deployment process.
5. Dependability That’s Trusted by Experts
You need a TWIC reader that has stood the test of time, proven itself in the toughest environments, and is trusted by industry leaders.
MozaicID has been the sole provider of mobile TWIC readers to the U.S. Coast Guard since 2008 through the USCG TWIC Reader Contract. Our readers are built to withstand harsh conditions and deliver dependable performance every time.
