Northamber strengthens strong-authentication portfolio with NEOWAVE partnership

NEOWAVE, a French specialist in strong authentication and secure transactions, today announced a new partnership with Northamber, a leading UK value-add distributor of IT, audiovisual, and security solutions. This agreement will allow Northamber to offer NEOWAVE’s hardware-based authentication devices – including QSCD smart cards, USB tokens, FIDO2 security keys with OTP and QSCD, as well as contact and contactless smart card readers – to Northamber’s extensive reseller network across the UK and Ireland.

NEOWAVE’s solutions combine the high level of security offered by smart cards with modern connectivity technologies such as USB and contactless RFID / NFC, targeting cybersecurity, digital trust and identity-management use cases for organisations of all sizes.

By manufacturing in France and using Common Criteria-certified secure components, NEOWAVE aligns closely with European and UK requirements around digital-identity protection and regulatory frameworks including NIS, GDPR and eIDAS.

Strong authentication is the foundation of every modern cyber strategy. Partnering with NEOWAVE gives our resellers access to a European vendor that builds secure smart-card and FIDO-based devices from the ground up – designed and manufactured in France, certified by European agencies, and ready to support UK and EU compliance needs. Together, we’re helping partners move customers beyond passwords to simple, secure and scalable hardware-based authentication.
