The authentication methods of card or user name and password do not prevent an unauthorized individual to gain physical or logical access if they possess the card or knowledge to access and enter restricted areas. The solution to this problem is to physically confirm the user is the genuine individual and not in possession of a stolen card or login. Biometric technologies provide strong authentication of genuine users and prevent security breaches while enabling adding mobility, transparency and ease of use. With the simple act of placing the finger on a sensor, the world’s most accurate fingerprint technology from Idemia (formerly Safran Morho) will confirm ID in less than a second. When combined with smart cards, biometrics also allow multifactor user authentication to harden the security system.
