Fargo Identification Badge Systems Designed to Comply With Post 9/11 Federal Information 
Processing Standards Directives

   Following the September 11 terrorist attacks, the Department of Homeland Security issued guidelines for identification systems to be used by federal employees and contractors working under federal contracts. These requirements, known as the Personal Identity Verification guidelines, offer federal agencies and contractors guidance as to the type of ID systems necessary for specific applications.

   For example, Photo ID Systems should generate identification cards that reveal visual evidence of tampering and that are not easily forged. Identification badges should be imprinted with sufficient durability that the print will not fade or rub off.

   Fargo Identification badge systems offer a variety of solutions that satisfy Federal Information Processing Standards (also known as "FIPS").
