The Physical Security Interoperability Alliance (PSIA) has now announced the release of a new PKOC Explainer Video, created to offer a clear and visual overview of the Public Key Open Credential (PKOC) specification in comparison to symmetric credential options. 

The video demonstrates the limitations of symmetric encryption in traditional access control credentials and explains how PKOC’s public/private key model enhances security through asymmetric verification.
