LaserCard Corporation Boosts Presence in Latin America with Secure ID Solutions Expert Ismael Dykman
MOUNTAIN VIEW, Calif. – Sept. 7, 2009 – LaserCard Corporation (NASDAQ:LCRD; www.lasercard.com), a leading provider of secure ID solutions, has appointed sales and business development manager Ismael Dykman to its team of professionals focused on providing secure ID solutions to governments throughout Latin America.
“We are very pleased to welcome Ismael as a key member of our Latin American team,” said David Oller, vice president of sales at LaserCard. “Heightened security concerns and the demand for increased services are driving many governments in Latin America to invest in more complex, secure ID programs for a broad range of applications, such as citizen, foreign resident, driver license, government employee and patient IDs. We believe Ismael’s deep roots in Latin America’s secure identification market will help LaserCard gain traction with new customers and new countries in the region.”
Most recently Dykman served as Government Sales Manager, Latin America, for a leading identity solutions provider, where he increased the company’s participation in driver license, state ID, national ID, voter ID, and civil registry programs. He drove the development and sale of large-scale national ID programs in Nicaragua and Guatemala and passport issuance systems in Brazil. Dykman is Vice Chairman of the Smart Card Alliance Latin America.
“I am excited to join LaserCard because of their deep understanding of the practicalities of large-scale ID programs and innovative technology approach,” said Dykman. “The company’s technical expertise in developing and manufacturing secure multi-technology credentials, in combination with its ability to accelerate issuance start-up and predictability, makes it a very good fit for countries in Latin America who are planning to undertake such a substantial investment.”
In 2009, LaserCard implemented Costa Rica’s new card issuance system and currently provides advanced optical media based ID credentials for the country’s new foreign residency ID program (“DIMEX”). The digital security of the company’s optical media has never been compromised.
