Identity verification goes mainstream in bank security features

IDENTITY theft has changed the public's perspective on financial security. Phising scams take consumers to Web sites almost identical to their trusted bank, a stolen driver license can lead to forged checks, a stolen Social Security number can open numerous credit card accounts and card cloning has left the public vulnerable.

Biometrics To Go

CONTRARY to using badges, sign-ins or other ways of tracking employees, a biometric reader ensures no employee can punch in for another, eliminating time fraud and reducing payroll costs. Because every person's biometric features—hand, fingerprint, eye or face—are unique, a biometric time clock provides a quick, accurate and reliable way to record in and out punches for each employee. That’s why so many companies, including fast food restaurants, now employ biometrics.

Access Control Panel

Honeywell’s NetAXS access control panel is a four-door programmable panel offering a hybrid Web- or PC-based system, giving users an easy-to-install solution for a new access control system or updates to an existing one. Using a built-in Web server, the system can be accessed anywhere Internet is available. The Web browser allows a user to manage the system, run reports, monitor events and alarms, and add and remove users.

Biometric Verification System

Shimon Systems’ Bio-NetGuard™ Wi-Fi security solution uses fingerprint verification technology to authenticate the user. The solution prevents client association with Wi-Fi access points that are not WPA/WPA 2.0 configured or authorized by the administrator. The plug-and-play unit can connect to either a Wi-Fi access point or LAN router. Each unit is capable of securing multiple Wi-Fi access points connected to the same router, allowing authenticated users to freely and seamlessly roam between access points without having to re-authenticate.
