Indala ASP / FlexSecur Compatible Cards & Fobs

Indala ASP/FlexSecur adds site-specific encryption between card and reader at the 125 kHz PSK air interface, preventing cloning — cards and readers are paired per site and cannot be substituted with generic or aftermarket credentials.

FlexSecur is HID Global's highest-security layer for the Indala 125 kHz platform, encrypting the entire card data payload with a unique site-specific key before card programming so that only the matching reader can decrypt and forward credentials to the access panel. Unlike base Indala 26-bit or 27-bit cards, FlexSecur credentials are not reproducible without the proprietary site key and require HID Indala ASP+ readers — making this format the only Indala variant immune to third-party card duplication.

Honest note: Indala ASP / FlexSecur is a secured credential

FlexSecur encrypts the entire card data field with a site-specific key before card programming. Only the matched FlexSecur-configured reader can decrypt the data. Cards and readers are paired per site — a card from one FlexSecur site will not work in a different FlexSecur site even if facility and card numbers match. This effectively prevents card cloning and unauthorized duplication. Only HID-authorized ASP+ readers can read ASP+ cards. If you're deploying a new system or need standard prox credentials your readers also accept, contact us and we'll tell you exactly what's possible.

Can Indala ASP / FlexSecur cards be copied?

No. Indala ASP / FlexSecur relies on secure encryption, so it cannot be cloned from an existing card. This is a security strength, not a limitation of our service.

Where Indala ASP / FlexSecur is used

  • High-security government and enterprise installations requiring anti-cloning protection at the card layer
  • Sites where card duplication or credential sharing is a primary threat
  • Healthcare and financial institutions with Indala reader infrastructure seeking enhanced credential security

Indala ASP / FlexSecur — FAQ

Can Indala ASP / FlexSecur cards be cloned or duplicated by a third party?

No. FlexSecur encrypts card data with a site-specific key before programming. Without the site key (held exclusively by HID Global), the card data cannot be reproduced. This is one of the strongest anti-cloning protections available at the 125 kHz proximity tier.

Will standard Indala 26-bit cards work in a FlexSecur reader?

No. FlexSecur readers are configured to accept only site-matched encrypted cards. A standard 26-bit Indala card will be rejected by the reader before its data is ever sent to the access panel.

Can American Key Cards supply FlexSecur replacement cards?

Not for FlexSecur-protected sites. Because the encryption key is site-specific and held by HID Global, only HID can program new FlexSecur cards for your site. We can supply standard Indala 26-bit or 27-bit compatible cards for non-FlexSecur Indala systems.
