whitepaper SmartDEGREE From TCS to Combat Certificate Malpractices2009-10-01 Tata Consultancy Services
  Tata Consultancy Services Limited's (TCS) SmartDEGREE, a Radio Frequency Identification (RFID) based solution, enables universities to curb the problem of fake degree certificates and forgery of mark sheets. Using SmartDEGREE, a university can award certificates with an embedded RFID tag that is encoded with the holder's name, date of graduation, type of degree and entire transcript, photograph and biometrics (fingerprints), all digitally signed by the university authorities.

whitepaper A Novel Method of Fingerprint Classification Using Image Parameters on ANFIS2009-10-01 International Journal of Computer Theory and Engineering (IJCTE)
  Numerous algorithms have been developed to improve the speed of fingerprint recognition and this assumes prime importance when dealing with a large database of fingerprint images. This paper proposes a novel technique of using the image parameters like mean, median, variance, standard deviation and root mean square value to train an Adaptive Network Based Fuzzy Inference System (ANFIS) to classify the test image into one of the six popular categories of fingerprints namely arch, tented arch, left loop, right loop, whorl and twin loop. This classification allows to proceed with the actual matching algorithm only with the images which fall in that particular category of ridge structure thereby saving time.

whitepaper The PKI Authentication System With the Integration of Biometric Identification and Nonsymmetric Key Technology2009-05-24 Academy Publisher
  To deal with the threats to the PKI authentication system from the internet and the real world, based on the analysis of biometric identification and nonsymmetric key technology, this paper presented a new PKI authentication system through the integration of Biometric identification and non-symmetric key technology, which assembled their advantages and made up their disadvantages to each other and formed a double-insurance for the E-commerce security. The most important of the system were the integration designs and measures for the private key, also principles and the processes needed were introduced.

whitepaper Analysis - Biometrics: Digital Identity2009-02-01
  IBS has covered the progress of biometric technology in the banking sector twice before, and on both occasions the bank installing biometric technology was in the Middle East. Cairo Amman Bank was the first in the world to adopt an iris biometric identification management system from Irisguard (IBS, July/August 2008), and Banque Saudi Fransi's internal biometric security system was explored in November (IBS, November 2008). The similar geography of these two examples is no coincidence. The Middle East as a whole is further down this road than the West.

whitepaper A More Secure Front Door: ESSO and Strong Authentication2008-11-12 Imprivata
  In recent years, enterprise Single Sign-On (ESSO) has emerged as an easy, smart and affordable way for organizations of all types and sizes to strengthen IT security while supporting user productivity. With the advent of more stringent government regulations, organizations are seeking ways to further strengthen IT security by incorporating stronger passwords and in many cases an additional form of authentication, such as a security card or token or even finger biometrics.

whitepaper Enabling Disparate Biometric Devices to Increase Security, Centralize Password Administration and Lower the Cost of Operations2008-09-18 JANUS Associates
  The explosive growth in IT infrastructures now requires organizations to pay critical attention to the security of user credentials. An organization must now verify user identity, consolidate the management of a vast number of authentication credentials and contain escalating costs. It has been difficult, at best, to find products and tools that meet marketplace requirements including authentication device interchangeability, system scalability, ease of administration and leveraging of the existing infrastructure for rapid deployment. This paper will explore the above problem and explain how a software middleware solution developed by JANUS Associates (JANUS) provides improved security, better infrastructure management, lower total cost of ownership, and the ability to control more effectively the entire authentication process at an enterprise level.

whitepaper Mobile Biometric Identification2008-09-12 Motorola
  Adding a wireless dimension to Biometric Identification Systems (BIS) provides a more efficient and reliable method of identity management across criminal justice and civil markets. Yet deploying cost-effective portable devices with the ability to capture biometric identifiers - such as fingerprints and facial images - is only part of the solution. Organizations must consider back-end infrastructure, secure methods of wireless connectivity, and the integration of mobile applications with existing business processes. An end-to-end, standards-based approach is required to deliver operational efficiencies, optimize resources and impact the bottom line.

whitepaper Airport Insecurity: The Case of Lost Laptops2008-06-30 Dell
  Do you ever worry about losing your laptop computer while rushing to catch a flight at a busy airport?

Everyday business travelers are putting the sensitive and confidential data of their organizations at risk when they travel through airports. Ponemon Institute conducted a study, sponsored by Dell, to understand the current risks posed to sensitive and confidential data contained in the laptops of business travelers.

Companies are dependent upon on a mobile workforce with access to information no matter where they travel. However, this mobility is putting companies at risk of having a data breach if a laptop containing sensitive information is lost or stolen. Read the findings of this study to help understand what you should be doing to protect the information on your employees' laptops and to reduce the likelihood that your employees will lose laptops while traveling.

whitepaper Tokenless Two-Factor Authentication: It Finally Adds Up2009-01-28 PhoneFactor
  Securing access to sensitive corporate and customer data is critical, especially in industries that require a regulatory-compliant environment. While two-factor authentication is an effective security solution, traditional two-factor systems have been difficult to implement and administer, leading to limited adoption. PhoneFactor uses any mobile phone (or landline) as the second authentication factor.

In this paper PhoneFactor CTO Steve Dispensa explains PhoneFactor's proven approach to two-factor authentication using out-of-band authentication with real-time fraud alerts to dramatically increase security. Learn how this technology works, how to implement it, and compare it to other two-factor authentication solutions available on the market today.
