10 years of the electronic ID card: REINER SCT launches limited edition of the comfort reader
Furtwangen, June 23, 2020 – In November, the electronic ID card (PA) will be ten years old. REINER SCT, the specialist from the Black Forest for secure transactions on the Internet, has launched a limited edition of the 100% German-made comfort reader in stylish white to mark its milestone birthday. On November 1, the electronic ID card (PA) with its online ID function (OAF) celebrates its tenth birthday. The implementation of the Online Access Act (OZG) is just in time for politicians to kick-start the turbo for a more comprehensive use of the OAF. The number of useful applications for “Perso” and the online ID function will increase significantly. By the end of 2022, 575 services from public authorities should also be available digitally. Every new ID card has the online ID function, which is activated when the ID card is issued and can therefore be used immediately for eGovernment.
The greatest protection when accessing data on the ID card is provided by the cyber Jack
® RFID comfort from REINER SCT. The device is particularly secure because the PIN is entered tap-proof via the device keypad and the communication is securely shown on the display. To mark the tenth anniversary of the ID card, REINER SCT has now released a limited edition of 5,000 of these readers. The device comes in stylish white. “Our devices have already won several design awards. With this edition, we’ve gone one better: it could hardly be more stylish. And what could be more fitting for the tenth anniversary of the new ID card than a device “Made in Germany”?” says a delighted Andreas Staiger, Managing Director of REINER SCT. The limited edition reader can be purchased immediately via the usual channels.
Donation to Vinzenz workshops
At the same time, REINER SCT is donating two euros per appliance sold to the “Vinzenz-Werkstätten” in Rottweil. The facility for people with disabilities has been supporting REINER SCT for many years in developing the cyber Jack® RFID for many years. Before painting the device, the employees manually place the buttons on the corresponding painting templates. After painting, the employees insert the buttons into the front case of the device and screw the component to a holder. The Vinzenz workshops, which are part of the “Vinzenz von Paul Hospital” and have branches in Rottweil and Schramberg, are primarily aimed at people with a chronic mental illness or a mental disability who cannot be integrated into the general labor market, either temporarily or in the long term. Its mission is to enable employees and rehabilitants to participate in working life, open up career prospects and thus positively perceive and shape their role in society.

With our donation of 10,000 euros, we would like to help support the facility and also thank them for their many years of support for our readers,” says Andreas Staiger. Further information: Due to the current corona pandemic, the donation handover is expected to take place at the end of October 2020. If you are interested, we would be pleased to invite you.
