Article 19 : Nouveauté 2022 : nouvelle gamme pour le MorphoWave

2022, new range for the MorphoWave

Idemia has just modified its MorphoWave product line. There are now two: MorphoWave XP (eXtended Performance) and MorphoWave SP (Simplified Profile), two contactless biometric readers for access control.

Biometric readers to facilitate access control

To protect their premises and facilities, organizations must be able to benefit from access control systems that are both efficient and easy to use. Contactless fingerprint readers are now recognized as the most effective solutions to meet this need, like the readers in the MorphoWave range developed by Idemia, world leader in augmented identity.

Implemented in several banking, financial, university and health organizations, MorphoWave technology has become a reference in the field of access control. The fluidity of its digital readers, the speed with which they are able to read and verify fingerprints are the ingredients of its success.

MorphoWave XP and MorphoWave SP

The MorphoWave XP (eXtended Performance) biometric reader has a verification capacity of sixty people per minute. Its touch screen allows human/machine interaction which facilitates communication with users, clocking and timestamping functions.

The MorphoWave SP (Simplified Profile) reader has a simplified interface with multicolored LED indicators and has a capacity of ten thousand user entries.

Both readers are equipped with card readers allowing support for HID Prox, iClass, MIFARE, DESFire solutions. They also offer an access control option by mobile phone (BLE and NFC) and visitor management by reading printed QR codes.

Article 17 : Le VisionPass d’IDEMIA déployé au Japon

IDEMIA VisionPass deployed in Japan

Biometrics

A new milestone has just been reached in the commercialization of the VisionPass 3D facial recognition terminal created by IDEMIA, since the solution has just been adopted in Japan to ensure the security of a large utility company.

A fruitful partnership with a Japanese manufacturer

To enter the Japanese market, IDEMIA is partnering with Shoden, a manufacturer of enterprise-grade security systems, to deploy the VisionPass terminal alongside the Security Center platform developed by Genetec. From this alliance will emerge a complete security solution that will be used to control access to the utility company’s buildings in tenths of a second without contact. This combination of technology will also be demonstrated in Shoden’s Solution Lab, where potential future customers will be able to test the terminals on their own.

A demand accentuated by the current health situation

The contactless identification solution offered by IDEMIA is all the more attractive as the global health situation requires increased compliance with hygiene measures. Controlling access to buildings, in particular public ones, without contact has become a real priority for public authorities and many airports, stadiums and other spaces linked to the administration have set up facial recognition terminals in Japan.

The ever more reliable VisionPass, with or without a mask

In the current health situation, a new challenge is facing facial recognition algorithms: the wearing of a mandatory mask in public places. In this area, the tests are successful, since the company can boast of an accuracy rate of 95% in the recognition of mask wearers, the highest score recorded by the United States Department of Homeland Security, during the last Biometric Technology Rally.

Article 16 : VisionPass: 100% de réussite pour le dispositif de reconnaissance faciale d'IDEMIA

VisionPass: 100% success for the IDEMIA facial recognition device

Biometrics

IDEMIA has just announced that its facial recognition device has successfully passed the tests of the independent institute iBeta PAD. Indeed, VisionPass obtained a score of 100% in the level 1 and 2 attacks prevention tests and becomes the first terminal in the world to record such a level of performance.

The importance of an independent test

Such success is crucial from a marketing point of you. Indeed, because it is difficult for the customer to trust the product without having testing result from an external and neutral source. This is even more true when it comes to a tool as important from a security point of view as a facial recognition device.

Testing from the iBeta lab allows consumers to trust the product without having to conduct resource and time consuming tests themselves.

VisionPass resists fraud

For the company, the main objective of such a test is to prove that its facial recognition device is resistant to the most common frauds in this area of security. It is therefore a matter of proving that the device cannot be fooled by wearing a mask, even if it has been 3D printed to represent the face of an authenticated user, or by the presentation of a user’s picture, printed on a piece of paper or directly from the screen of a smartphone for example.

IDEMIA confirms its leadership position in digital security

By presenting on the market the first device to achieve a perfect score in the level 1 and 2 tests of the iBeta laboratory, the company confirms its position of strength in the digital security market. Such results prove the firm’s mastery in the fields of biometric algorithms, cryptography and on-board security.

Article 15 : Certification VISA et MASTERCARD pour les cartes de paiement biométriques F.CODE

VISA and MASTERCARD certification for F.CODE biometric payment cards

Biometrics, Company

Mastercard and Visa said they have entered into new agreements to develop biometric authentication. New partnerships could allow them to take advantage of this new trend.

IDEMIA’s F-CODE biometric cards

This technology is transforming the way people identify people. Biometrics enhance the security of your data and facilitate the use of your credit card by analysing your fingerprint.

As security is an issue in purchasing, Idemia designs F-CODE biometric payment cards. You carry out your transactions using the fingerprint sensor integrated into the card. Your fingerprint is then validated by an algorithm that validates the match of the fingerprint to that of the owner.

New agreements with Visa and Mastercard

In this context, this technology has recently entered into a partnership with Visa and Mastercard. The biometric device fits perfectly into these cards and allows you to pay easily and securely.

To do this, a chip is integrated into the card and enables the verification procedure.

This initiative will help develop biometric payment services around the world.

News that appeal to consumers

A study shows that consumers are ready to welcome biometric payment: 76% are interested in contactless for large payments and 81% are ready to use their fingerprint.

Indeed, it speeds up payment, lifts the limit of 30 euros for contactless payment, offers ease of use and secures data.

To ensure user privacy, biometric data is stored into the chip and never leaves the chip. This new generation of cards is already available, regardless of your bank.

Article 14 : IDEMIA, partenaire de l'Etat Français pour les nouvelles cartes d'identité biométrique

IDEMIA, partner of the French State for new biometric identity cards

Biometrics

The French State has announced the renewal of the national identity card by integrating a biometric chip useful for online identification, and designed by a French company at the cutting edge of technology. Back to this important announcement.

An improvement in the service of the security of everyone’s identity

It is a sulphurous and divisive subject at first glance, which hardly leaves anyone indifferent in France lately: the new French identity cards will be equipped with a biometric chip. Thus, these new generation national identity cards can be easily read by a smartphone or any device equipped with an application specially designed for this purpose in order to automatically and digitally certify the identity of its owner.

It will be possible, for example, to verify with certainty the identity of the holder of one of these new cards when carrying out certain procedures: request to French administrations, online purchases and why not, if one imagine the possible developments based on this improvement in identity checks, voting online as is already done in other countries. The applications are limitless and this should improve everyone’s cybersecurity and prevent some identity theft.

A controversial technology whose security is essential

Faced with these obvious improvements, some object to the still plausible possibility of having their identity card stolen, or even quite simply a hacking of the identification system which could, on the contrary, greatly facilitate identity theft for criminals. of a victim. At a minimum, this identification system must be extremely secure.

A French innovation by IDEMIA

We particularly draw our reader’s attention to one detail: this biometric identification technology is not the result of an acquisition from some technologically superior foreign country, but a national innovation. It is more precisely due to the company IDEMIA, the world leader in augmented identity.

At Biotime, it seems important to us to relay this information because IDEMIA is an innovative company, the flagship of French technology and now recognized by the State itself.
