Biometrics Solutions

Introduction
Communications Solutions

Biometric solutions are techniques that verify an individual's identity based on measurable physiological characteristics, such as voice, face, fingerprints, retina, iris, and hand geometry. Each of the biometric authentication technologies works by matching examples of live individual characteristics against stored templates. Biometric technologies provide alternatives to personal identification numbers, badges and passwords as means of identity verification and authorized access to resources.

Biometric technologies are tools for applications where secure authorized entry or assumed identity is required. Biometrics facilitate authorized entry for physical places such as doors or automobiles, or for "logical" (or data) places like PCs, telephones, networks, and the Internet. In this way, Biometrics provide authentication and security for smartcard applications, e-commerce transactions, secure portal services, secure data repositories, and secure database management services. In short, biometric solutions facilitate any transaction where a user, customer, or employee must verify his or her identity before gaining access to resources or services. Because biometric methods do not require passwords, they are convenient, and effective solutions for securing the virtual pathways for consumer spending and satisfaction on the Internet.

VoicePass™ is a voice pattern recognition biometric technology. Used for secure identification, it operates by comparing a person's actual speech to their stored voice pattern. The technology compresses the stored voiceprint and therefore uses a uniquely small amount of memory. VoicePass™ is unparalleled because it is text independent and therefore does not rely on a particular phrase or password...More on VoicePass™

FaceTrac is facial identification biometric technology designed to allow law enforcement agents to identify individuals by face matrix/nodal points and match them against records stored in the Bastille database. Facial recognition is a biometric technology that measures the nodal points of an individual face to verify identity. The technology can provide a one-to-one or a one to many match between an individual's face and a stored template. A one-to-one match verifies that an individual is who he or she claims to be by delivering one of two possible results: yes or no. A one to many match can deliver several results.

FaceTrac is designed to:
* locate faces and build templates
* return matches based on a specified threshold ranking
* match images despite altered facial hair, colorings, and age.

FaceTrac biometric technology works with the Bastille secure data center for law enforcement to offer crime prevention and suspect apprehension.
