The Panasonic Authenticam™
Private ID software allows an iris recognition camera to capture, select, and secure iris images. These images can then be processed by the KnoWho Authentication Server. The server will check that the images are secure before doing biometric operations, such as enrollment or recognition.
The Panasonic Authenticam sets new information security standards for local and network PCs as well as enterprise business applications through a core set of benefits:
Most accurate authentication Easy to use Password elimination Positive identification Non-invasive Fully scalable Videoconferencing Cost effective
Easy to use. The camera's visual user interface supports a fast learning curve with enrollment in less than two minutes. Once enrolled, users can logon to their computer or the enterprise with just a glance, and each logon or entry takes less than three seconds to be authenticated.
Eliminate password management. SecureSuite™ software is included with the Panasonic Authenticam to enhance the security of a standalone personal computer with a set of iris recognition-enabled applications:
SecureLogon™ for local PC logon, supporting up to six users SecureSession™ for a password bank of personal internet accounts SecureFolder™ for folder and file level security SecureApp™ for secure application launching The administrative burden of password management, which requires issuing complex alphanumeric combinations and providing multiple passwords per person, can be virtually eliminated through the use of the Panasonic Authenticam. Iridian's KnoWho Authentication Server can be used with the Software Developer Kit for customized integration of the Authenticam with enterprise applications. Additionally, Iridian's many solution provider partners offer seamless integration to a broad selection of operating systems, applications and databases. Positive identification. The Panasonic Authenticam with KnoWho Authentication Server software delivers one-to-many identification capability instead of one-to-one verification provided by most other security solutions. With true identification, users are not required to present additional verification such as a PIN, token or card.
The combination of the Authenticam's one-to-many positive identification feature coupled with the technology's ability to perform an exhaustive search of virtually any size database at unequalled speed and with unparalleled accuracy represents enormous potential for eBusiness, enterprise, healthcare, government, and financial service initiatives.
Non-invasive. The Panasonic Authenticam takes a video-based image from a comfortable 19-21 inches away, and requires no contact, only cooperation, from users. The Authenticam does not use any lasers or bright lights, which are often used in retinal "scans", nor does it require physical touching like most fingerprint-based solutions.
Videoconferencing. The Panasonic Authenticam is a multi-function camera that can record video email messages and can be used to participate in network and Internet-based video conferences. It is compatible with standard video conferencing applications, including Microsoft® NetMeeting™.
Scale to the enterprise with KnoWho™. The Panasonic Authenticam combined with Iridian's KnoWho™ Authentication Server software provides for high performance integration with back office, legacy and web applications.
The KnoWho™ Authentication Server software offers secure, robust encoding, record matching and database storage management of IrisCode® templates. This one-to-many security solution is based on robust databases such as Oracle and SQL Server and can scale to support millions of users, ensuring individual authentication.
Highly cost-effective. Studies from industry analysts such as the Forrester Group have concluded that password management costs an organization between $200 and $300 per employee per year. By eliminating passwords, organizations can experience an immediate return on investment.
