LONDON, September 17, 2008 /PRNewswire via COMTEX/ -- De La Rue Identity
Systems today announced that it is supplying the New York State DMV(1) with
the solution to issue its new WHTI(2) compliant Enhanced Driver License
(EDL). A combination of advanced anti-counterfeit and security technologies
ensures the new driver license is at the forefront of today's identity
management solutions. The EDL includes a range of pre-printed security
features on both the front and back of the card and incorporates a radio
frequency identification tag (RFID) and antenna. The EDL will be issued
alongside the existing New York State driver license which is also supplied
by De La Rue Identity Systems. The existing license is one of the top three
contracts in terms of issuing volumes in the United States and is
acknowledged to be among the most secure license documents currently
available.
