Biometric Security Breakthrough

Biometric security, at least in theory, has been around for a decade. But the use of biometrics for computer security and user authentication has failed to attract much practical interest to date because the clunky devices were costly, inconvenient and intrusive.

All that is about to change with the introduction of the Tensor range of "plug and play" biometric fingerprint scanners. A finger scan is required to gain log-on access to the computer and its contents, delivering simplified access to password-protected personal and financial information, web sites, documents and e-mail.

The bar has been raised on security for the entire PC industry. What was once considered sci-fi technology is now available to all PC and notebook users.

The subdermal capabilities of the Tensor range mean that the biometric scanners capture more than just the fingertip's surface area, helping to prevent misidentification. By actually scanning the subdermal layer of skin, even fingerprints contaminated by dirt and grease can accurately be scanned.

The recognition process takes less than a second, with the fingerprint having been scanned and compared to the previously stored templates of authorised users.

In addition, registration of authorised users is quick and easy, and is ideal for beginners or experienced computer users alike.

We have three different models of "plug & play" fingerprint scanner, guaranteed to fulfill your biometric requirements.
