Agents

The Axidian CertiFlow Client Agent allows you to control cards on user workstations.

In the Agents section, you can configure card usage settings, specify messages for users when the agent completes a task, define available automatic operations, and set administrator PINs for different card types.

• Locking a card
• Changing the administrator PIN
• Cleaning a card
• Detecting an unregistered card
