ASIC Features
An Aviation Security Identification Card comes with very noticeable features to make it obvious to the eye, but also to protect from fraud.
The most common type of ASIC is bright red (suitable for entrance to Security Restricted Areas (SRA) and secure areas), however there are also grey variations (secure areas). ASIC Security features include:
- A large mugshot of the ASIC holder to clearly identify them.
- The area the ASIC is valid, typically an individual airport such as SYD or MEL, or if Australia wide, the prefix AUS.
- The holders name and Aviation Reference Number (ARN).
- A silver Holographic strip with the word 'ASIC' clearly printed and the outlines of an aircraft and Australia.

Famous quotes containing the word features:
“It is a tribute to the peculiar horror of contemporary life that it makes the worst features of earlier times—the stupefaction of the masses, the obsessed and driven lives of the bourgeoisie—seem attractive by comparison.”
—Christopher Lasch (b. 1932)
