Check out Corestreet's unique marketing with Adventures of PIVMAN comic

Wednesday, September 13, 2006

At SecureIDNews, we usually try to steer clear of blatant promotion of a company’s marketing … but in this case we couldn’t help it. Corestreet’s new ID card reader, PIVMAN, for FIPS 201 and First Response environments was launched recently. As a part of that launch, they designed a comic book to explain the device’s functionality, ease of use, and versatility. It tells the story of a new police recruit called to the scene of a natural disaster and how he uses a PIVMAN to help the injured and defeat the bad guys. The illustrations are as good as any Spiderman issue and the concept is just plain cool. Definately worth a download. Click here to check out the Adventures of PIVMAN.
