Key features of the plusID biometric security product
The rich and unique feature set of the plusID universal, personal biometric fob is vastly different from traditional biometric security solutions:
One device for physical and logical biometric access
supports multiple facilities and multiple card formats for existing door reader systems
provides access to IT resources such as PC's, applications, web sites, VPN's, email, and encrypted files
offers vehicle gate access at distances up to 100 meters
securely stores and transmits up to 2MB of user credentials (such as passwords, building access codes, identity documents, photos)
Personal privacy
all biometric processing, including enrollment and template matching is performed on the user's personal device – never exposing biometric data to external servers, readers or databases
user's biometric information is stored on the secure device and never leaves it
eliminates the need for a biometric database or back-end servers
Compatible with industry standards
125 kHz RFID: works with HID®, Indala®, Kantech and CASI proximity readers
13.56 MHz RFID: 14443A & B, 15693 and NFC for smart card readers; supports iCLASS
ISO 7816 (Part 3) Smart Card compliant
Bluetooth (wireless) and USB connection to computers/networks
IEEE 802.15.4 for long-range gate access (up to 100 meters) from within moving vehicles
easy addition to existing security systems - no need to "rip and replace"
works on the same reader systems as prox and contactless smart cards
eliminates need for an external biometric database
eliminates need for biometric readers at every door and PC
reduces manpower at vehicle gates
can be erased and reissued
Convenience
replaces multiple access cards, fobs, and passwords
personal biometric device upgrades security at every access point
fingerprint sensor on personal devices eliminates single point of system failure, congestion at doorways, and health risks from shared biometric readers
allows for mixed populations of biometric and non-biometric devices
less than one second verification times
Security
designed to meet FIPS 140-2 level 3 security rating for tamper resistance
employs the BCM 5890 secure processor
false acceptance rates of 1 in 100,000
full cryptographic services provider for secure, encrypted data transmissions
can store and transmit other biometrics, i.e., facial pattern templates, for multiple biometric authentication
