[10/15/10]
Fujitsu Frontech North America, a leading provider of IT-based business solutions, including advanced technology products, biometric security, and digital media solutions, announced the integration of its award-winning PalmSecure palm vein biometric authentication technology with the Crystal IT Avert Access Control system.
The joint solution combines biometrics and RFID technologies to deliver unmatched endpoint security for individual workstations, preventing unauthorized user access, protecting proprietary information, and eliminating passwords, all while reducing administrative costs and ensuring regulatory compliance.
"At a time when internal security breaches are surpassing external threats to corporate and government networks, the need for comprehensive authentication and access control has never been greater," said Vic Herring, vice president of sales and marketing, Fujitsu Frontech North America Inc. "The integration of the PalmSecure technology with Avert Access Control provides enterprises with a superior level of endpoint security for individual workstations and the network at large while streamlining password management processes. Together, we are helping customers protect their information and intellectual property with the most innovative authentication and access control tools available today."
The Fujitsu PalmSecure technology is an identity management tool with software that seamlessly integrates with third-party access control solutions. The PalmSecure sensor uses a near-infrared light to capture a person's palm vein pattern, generating a unique biometric template that is matched against pre-registered users' palm vein patterns. This advanced, contactless technology rapidly generates highly accurate authentication that is virtually impossible to forge, leaves no biometric trace behind, and produces extremely low false-positive and false-negative rates. The PalmSecure technology is deployed worldwide in a range of vertical markets, including finance/banking, healthcare, education and government.
The Crystal IT Avert Access Control system leverages both PalmSecure biometrics and active RFID technologies to provide two-factor authentication and access control for individual workstations. A radio frequency (RF) badge is assigned to each individual user and the user's palm is scanned. Vein patterns are recognized, encrypted, assigned and stored along with the user's badge information. When a user requests access to a workstation, his/her badge and palm vein information are checked against stored information for registered users. If the badge and biometric signature are authenticated, the terminal unlocks. By utilizing PalmSecure technology for authentication, users are no longer required to remember passwords, thereby eliminating threats posed by misplaced passwords and reducing costs associated with creating and re-assigning new log-in credentials.
