Identity Stronghold recognized the need for the protection of RFID chipped items in the early 2000’s and created a new industry in RFID shielding protection.
However until recently, the press and major credit card companies have been slow to recognize the dangers associated with RFID chips used in commercial and private sectors. Examples of those would be items such as credit cards, debit cards, passports, drivers' licenses, hotel room keys, healthcare cards, ID cards, and transportation cards including most subway fare cards.
We are happy to see the public at large being made aware of the need for protection. We have been featured on Fox News, CNN, NBC, CBS, ABC, Inside Edition, Discovery Channel, and countless local news stations educating the public on how easy it is to scan valuable information from people’s cards without even touching their cards. This crime has even garnered itself a new name. The crime is now often called electronic pickpocketing or e-pickpocketing for short.
Identity Stronghold is the leading provider of RFID secure sleeves and badge holders to the U.S. government.
We Were First. ID Stronghold Started Well Over a Decade Ago Protecting Government RFID Cards.
We earned our way onto the GSA Approved Products List because RFID products destined to serve the Government had to be certified. Our Secure Sleeve was the first product ever approved. We now have more products on that list than any other company. Our products are consistently chosen by Government Employees. The US Patent Office even released an article in the January 2017 Inventors Eye Publication which talked about how most Patent Office employees use ID Stronghold products.
You can be assured, with an ID Stronghold product, that you're getting the best shielded products on the market.
All RFID Blocking Products Are Not Created Equally. We Know. We Test Them.
Although there is a standard for Government RFID products, there is NO STANDARD for consumer goods displaying the RFID letters and symbol. So it is effectively a "Buyer Beware" market. Our videos of shielding testing in our labs has consistently shown that many other wallet companies do little to effectively shield their products and block RFID skimming for you. We've tested other manufacturers high-end and low-end RFID Wallets, and to our surprise, most of them fail to shield ENTIRELY! Our only objective is that YOUR CARDS ARE SAFE when in our RFID Blocking wallets, sleeves and badge holders.
Some older style building access cards that operate at a frequency of 125Khz may not be totally blocked by our secure products. This in no way affects the ability to shield credit cards, debit cards, passports and more, which operate at 13.56Mhz and above. If you're looking for 125Khz protection, look for our BloxProx Products.
We are a Technology Company First. Then We Build Our Products From That Knowledge Base.
Each product is designed in-house from the ground up with RFID protection, style and customer needs as goals. We take all of YOUR suggestions into our product development. Just recently, we've made a few items because of your suggestions. You ask, we listen. Protection and fashion have equal billing in our house. | Each wallet is tested in our labs and inspected. We use the highest powered RFID scanners allowed under FCC rules to confirm proper protection against RFID skimming is in place throughout the wallet. | The result: safe, satisfied customers with fashion-forward products. When the objective is protection, success only comes when you are SAFE and stylish. |
