No. LEAF Verified works with any reader that supports modern NFC and public-key standards, including most readers already deployed. Legacy and LEAF Verified credentials work side by side, so you can transition door by door on your own schedule. No rip-and-replace.

Nothing. Open application mode works out of the box with zero key management. No SAM cards, no key ceremonies, no secret distribution. When you're ready for mutual authentication, you can layer on enterprise PKI at your own pace. It's there when you need it, not before.

No. LEAF Verified is built on open standards and open-source cryptography. Any reader, panel, or platform manufacturer can add support. The growing LEAF Community ecosystem already includes hardware and software from multiple vendors. The credential works the same regardless of whose reader is on the wall.

The infrastructure you deploy for LEAF Verified today is already built for it. Wavelynx Wallet brings the same public-key model to phone wallets using the Aliro standard from Apple and Google. Same trust chain, physical and mobile.

Both sides verify. The credential proves itself to the reader. The reader proves itself to the credential. Nobody gets access until both checks pass. It's the same model your IT team already uses for network access, applied to physical doors.
