Positive Identification and Access Control | 0000-00-00 | Unisys |
| Unisys and the ES7000 server are doing its part to help fight crime. Working closely with the Chilean Immigration Police, Unisys is assisting with a biometric security solution that addresses forgery problems with travel documents and movement of criminals across borders all the while speeding up airport queues. Two ES7000 servers, employing 1.3 GHz Intel Itanium 2 processors, provide failover capability and support for the biometric security solution at the Chilean International Airport. Each border station uses AssureTec Systems' document reader and a video camera that are connected to the ES7000 servers through a data center to provide a completely integrated solution.

Visible Breakthrough: InteliTrac Supports Powerful, Cost-Effective Biometric Processing | 0000-00-00 | Unisys |
| InteliTrac is the creator of an integrated system of hardware and software solutions that enable standard computer networks to process data 10 to 1,000 times faster than previously possible for most applications on the same computer networks. The company wanted to strike the perfect balance between business and technology needs by finding a cost-effective server and operating environment with the large addressable memory space required to power memory-resident database technology. InteliTrac, found the ideal platform for its solution in Unisys and Intel technology and the Linux operating system. Running on Itanium 2 based Unisys ES7000 enterprise servers, InteliTrac's IdentiPort biometric security solution provides real-time document authentication, fingerprint verification, and face recognition - and has been most recently deployed at a major South American airport.

Digital Identities and the Promise of the Technology Trio: PKI, Smart Cards, and Biometrics | 2007-05-30 | Science Publications |
| This paper looks at one of the evolving crimes of the digital age; identity theft. It argues and explains that if three key technologies were implemented together namely biometrics, smart cards, and PKI, then they can deliver a robust and trusted identification and authentication infrastructure. The paper concludes that such infrastructure may provide the foundation for e-government and ecommerce initiatives as it addresses the need for strong user authentication of virtual identities.

Call Center Voice Biometrics Is Coming | 2007-03-01 | CellMax |
| In the call center world, voice biometrics is the ideal solution: it provides higher levels of authentication/verification, but keeps costs low by increasing process automation. Most call centers ask for Personal Identification Numbers (PIN) numbers and, if another level of security is required, ask a "Challenge question." But many people could know the answer to a challenge question. Time is money, and a large call center can save tens of thousands of dollars every month simply by eliminating this process. Voice biometrics can also be used to eliminate the time-consuming "Password reset" process. With information input automatically, without the involvement of call center operators, data control levels rise, thus increasing quality of service, reducing wait time, and, in turn, providing a rapid ROI.

Voice Biometrics as a Natural and Cost-Effective Method of Authentication | 2007-02-28 | CellMax |
| In the past, voice biometrics took a back seat to other physical biometric methods of identification and verification, such as fingerprints, facial recognition and iris scans, but new algorithms and more robust computer processing power have increased accuracy rates exponentially, making voice biometrics a competitive threat to the more invasive, traditional methods of identification and verification. In addition, new legislation for higher levels of security in commerce make voice biometrics an attractive low-cost option for enterprises now required to ask for three levels of ID to prevent identity theft and fraud in commerce and homeland security. The voice biometric technology developed by CellMax Systems is paving the way for voice's inclusion by international standards organizations as a physical biometric parameter.

SAFLINK and Computer Associates Team Up to Bring Password Protection Into the 21st Century | 0000-00-00 | CA (Computer Associates) |
| SAFLINK Corporation, based in Bellevue, Washington, provides biometric software solutions that secure business and personal information through the use of biometric authentication. SAFLINK's SAFaccess, a biometric authentication security framework, was one of the first applications to be certified ca smart with eTrust Single Sign-On (eTrust SSO) from Computer Associates International, Inc. (CA). eTrust SSO consolidates a user's many passwords into one, thereby eliminating the security headaches, system vulnerabilities and administrative overhead associated with multiple IDs/passwords. SAFaccess then replaces the remaining password with a biometric authentication device, such as a fingerprint reader.

Microsoft Identity and Access Solutions | 2007-01-01 | Microsoft |
| Microsoft offers a series of technologies that enable organizations to address information protection in the enterprise. These technologies include RMS (Rights Management Services), EFS (Encrypting File Systems), and Bit-locker (BitLocker(TM) Drive Encryption). Each performs different functions in the information security chain, yet all three technologies are complementary elements of information protection--recommended for an enterprise's overall security strategy--and may be used separately or together, depending on an enterprise's security needs. With EFS, all data on a file system, volume, or machine (depending on policy) is encrypted to a key belonging to a single user. BitLocker is a hardware-enabled data protection feature in Windows Vista that helps protect data on a computer when the machine is in unauthorized hands.
