Latin America. HID Global announced that Security Products magazine recognized the Lumidigm multispectral fingerprint image capture sensor of the V400-BX series as its new product of the year in the access control/biometrics category.
The awards program recognizes manufacturers whose products stand out for their ability to improve the security of user authentication processes.
HID's Lumidigm V400-BX sensor combines patented multispectral fingerprint technology with in-device encryption. It also offers detection and response functions to sensor manipulation, to achieve robust endpoint security with a recognized proven biometric authentication. It is ideal for user enrollment and verification in enterprise access control applications, especially in financial and other regulatory industries, where secure access by authorized persons is critical to the protection and performance of the organization.
"This award recognizes the most important features of the Lumidigm V400-BX sensor, which boasts excellent biometric performance and is the first fingerprint sensor to achieve ISO/IEC 30107-3 certification, which ensures that the device rejects fake or stolen fingerprints. Robust end-to-end encryption and sensor tamper protection technology processes billions of transactions annually to prevent misuse by fraudsters, while properly authenticating legitimate users," said Michael Chaudoin, vice president of product management and marketing for HID Global's Extended Access Technologies business unit. "We are proud to receive this recognition for our offering of fingerprint sensors and validation of the critical role biometrics play in protecting enterprise networks and other logical access applications."
HID's Lumidigm V400-BX sensors work for the widest range of people (with normal, wet, dry or damaged fingers), in the widest range of conditions. Its live fingerprint detection features are essential to combat threats from imposters using fake fingerprints. Its prestigious MINEX III template generator and checker (Characteristic Point Interoperability Exchange Test) optimizes accuracy and interoperability, while FBI-certified WSQ (Scalar Wave Quantification) image compression ensures fast and accurate finger image transfer. The maintenance required by all V-Series sensors is minimal, even in applications where there are no monitoring staff and in applications where there is a high flow of users, which reduces the total cost of ownership.
