K&A guided an enterprise secure ID card migration for JPMorgan Chase, protecting more than 350,000 employees and contractors worldwide.
JPMorgan Chase & Co., one of the world’s largest financial institutions, faced a major security challenge in 2015.
More than 350,000 employees and contractors relied on outdated access cards that left the company vulnerable to cloning, unauthorized access, and long-term security risks.
The firm needed encrypted credentials with proprietary keys it fully controlled, giving it freedom from any one manufacturer while supporting future access control expansion.
Competing solutions fell short in critical areas, leaving JPMorgan Chase in need of a partner with both technical expertise and long-term strategic vision. K&A was brought in to architect a secure, scalable credentialing system for the company’s global enterprise.
“Migrating JPMorgan Chase was a humongous undertaking for us, but solving the problem is what drives us.”
Leon Deane, President, K&A Industries

K&A partnered with JPMorgan Chase to design and deploy an enterprise-wide secure ID system built around DESFire open-architecture cards.
The approach gave JPMorgan Chase long-term flexibility, stronger security, and the ability to scale access control systems without being tied to a single manufacturer.
