Traditional authentication systems, which use smart cards
and PINs, have become the target of financially-motivated criminals that use a variety of creative techniques for
stealing personal details and counterfeiting cards.
Biometric authentication solutions help to solve this
problem by using "something you are" as the basis of verification, rather than something you have, which
can easily be stolen.
BioGuard and Fujitsu, leaders in biometric solutions,
have teamed together to create a contactless, biometric authentication system for verifying an individual™s identity
by recognizing the unique pattern of veins in the palm. |
Using Fujitsu's "no touch" palm vein scanning technology,
PalmGuard™ provides the same level of reliability and accuracy
as iris recognition, with the ease of use of fingerprint recognition.
It addresses the growing scourge of credit card and smart card
fraud, as well as helping organizations comply with HIPAA and
other legal requirements. PalmGuard™ is suitable for a wide
range of vertical markets, including security, financial/banking,
healthcare, commercial enterprises and educational facilities. |
