evolutionID has expanded the capabilities of IDfunction Production with support for LEGIC neon-on-card, including activation of the LEGIC neon applet. Available in the latest release, this integration further expands the range of credential technologies supported by the software.
As organizations modernize their access control systems, card production needs to accommodate both established technologies and newer credential standards. With this latest addition, IDfunction Production continues to provide the flexibility to manage different card technologies within a single production environment.
What's new with LEGIC neon-on-card?
LEGIC neon-on-card is an applet that brings LEGIC's latest neon technology to compatible processor smartcards. It combines advanced cryptographic security with the flexibility to use the same credential technology across cards and smartphones.
Key capabilities include:
- Customer-controlled cryptographic keys: Keys are securely managed through LEGIC Orbit, remain invisible even to system operators, and can be replaced when needed.
- One technology for cards and smartphones: LEGIC neon-on-card and neon on smartphones can use the same neon file names and application keys, enabling consistent credential technology across both formats.
- Multiple applications on one card: Up to 32 KB of storage supports multiple applications, each with its own cryptographic keys.
- Phased migration: neon technology can be introduced alongside existing credential standards, allowing organizations to transition gradually rather than replacing everything at once.
These capabilities give organizations greater flexibility when introducing new credential technologies while continuing to support their existing access environments.
Broader technology support in IDfunction Production
With the addition of LEGIC neon-on-card, IDfunction Production supports an extensive range of credential technologies, including the LEGIC family from prime and advant to neon-on-card, the MIFARE family from Classic to DESFire EV3, and low-frequency (125 kHz) technologies.
Rather than requiring separate production processes for different credential types, IDfunction Production brings card design, data management, encoding, and printing together in one software environment.
Our close collaboration with technology partners such as LEGIC helps us continuously expand these capabilities and respond to evolving requirements in card and credential production.
The result is greater flexibility for organizations managing existing card technologies, planning migrations, or introducing new credential standards.

About us
For more than two decades, evolutionID has helped organizations bring clarity and control to identity and access. We focus on what matters most: secure, reliable processes that are simple to operate and built to last.
We bring together Physical Identity & Access Management (PIAM), card and employee management, and RFID‑supported workflows into one coherent approach. Our modular building blocks allow identity and access systems to adapt over time—without disrupting what already works. The result is less complexity, more transparency, and greater confidence in everyday operations.
As a long‑term partner, we guide our customers step by step—from analysis and architecture to implementation, migration, and ongoing support. With teams in Munich, Bonn, and Frankfurt, we work closely with organizations across the DACH region to create access infrastructures that stay secure, stable, and ready for what comes next.
