Optimizing Your Solutions 2 – Event Notification

What is ‘Event Notification’ feature? First of all, please take a look at the following video: This video includes two patterns of vein recognition processes that is used as an alternative for a physical key. Did you notice there was a slight difference between them? In the first process, the person did one additional behavior that turned on the device before starting the authentication. In the second one, however, the process started soon after placing a finger on the device. The authentication process to open the cabinet uses the ‘Event Notification’ feature. The authentication device is waiting for placing a finger on and the process starts as soon as it

Optimizing Your Solution 1 – 1:N Authentication (Identification)

Differences Between 1:1 and 1:N Mofiria supports two types of authentication method, 1:1 authentication (verification) and 1:N authentication (identification).1:1 authentication (verification) is a method that specifies one finger vein data for the person to be authenticated and compares with their actual finger (vein) placed on the FVA device.On the other hand, 1:N authentication (identification) picks up one person from multiple pre-enrolled finger vein data just by placing a finger on the device. Both methods run a different process internally. While 1:1 returns one answer whether it is matched or not, 1:N executes a matching process with all candidates even if a good one is found in the middle of the

The Importance of Two-Factor Authentication

What Is Two-Factor Authentication (Multi-Factor Authentication)? In recent years, the use of “two-factor authentication” has been increasing as a personal identification method. The methods of identity verification are roughly divided into the following three: 1) Use user’s knowledge: (Something you know)2) Use user’s possession: (Something you have)3) Use characteristics of users themselves: (Something you are, biometrics) Multi-factor authentication is a method of identity verification using multiple elements of these three, and two-factor authentication is using two elements of these three.For example, ATM using a cash card as 1) and a secret number as 2) realizes two-factor authentication.Even in the case of using two levels of authentication, both passwords and answers

Introducing EVE MA – Multifactor Authentication Integrated Platform

※This article is a guest post by DDS, Inc. Features of EVE MA EVE MA is a high expansibility plugin architecture, which enables a flexible configuration on authentication base for enterprise system.It replaces the method of user authentication for various systems from ID and password entry to multi-factor authentication method using different biometric modalities (fingerprint, mofiria’s finger vein, palm vein and face recognition), IC card (FeliCa and MIFARE) and so on.Assured identity verification reduces any security threats. It cooperates with Active Directory seamlessly and enables a flexible configuration for any organizations and groups. EVE MA integrates multiple authentications such as Windows Logon, business applications and virtual desktop, and provides safe

Border Control Needs Biometrics

New Movement for Border Control Along with the recent worsening of security such as terrorist attacks, countries in Europe and the United States are focusing on improving the security of airports and stations. Biometric authentication technology has been largely closed up for the purpose of preventing entry of criminals. US-VISIT, introduced in the US in 2004, is one of the famous border control system using biometrics. Foreigners registered their fingerprints as well as their face, and fingerprint authentication is used for identity verification. Compared with the initial US-VISIT, stored biometric information in the system, there are many systems which try to use e-passport stored biometric information, to prevent illegal immigration.

Introduction: About Biometrics

※This article is a revised version of the one published on Dempa Shimbun High Technology issued on May 2017. Biometrics Market Since Japan is a relatively safe country, we Japanese tend to have a kind of subconscious mind that safety is a common thing. However, other countries have a stronger demand for high security and assured identity verification. Therefore, they also have a stronger movement for utilizing biometrics technologies into various security purposes. Many countries introduce biometrics into their infrastructure institutions and some already try to associate biometric information with national ID. The CAGR, Compound Annual Growth Rate, for biometrics market in the world is about 12%. Many emerging countries

Biometrics Terminology

As every industry has its own terms, biometrics industry also has many specific terms. This article introduces some of them. EER It stands for Equal Error Rate. This is the error rate calculated by adjusting the threshold from the measurement result to unify FAR and FRR. This is often referred as an indicator for representing the accuracy performance of authentication technology. The lower the value is, the higher the accuracy. Enrollment This means a series of processes for creating a template. For finger vein recognition or fingerprint recognition, it is done by placing a finger on the device. FAR It stands for False Acceptance Rate. It is the rate that

Finger Vein Recognition

Finger vein recognition is a sort of biometrics using finger vein patterns for verifying or identifying one person.

mofiria provides finger vein authentication devices and SDKs that combine the highest level of accuracy, speed and efficiency.
