ekeyUSA Systems biometric products, solutions, and services are based on ekey unique technology. This technology was developed by ekey biometric systems GmbH located in Linz, Austria.
ekey products and solutions are based on fingerprint technology that is the ultimate solution in managing physical or logical access control challenges. Whether it is physical access or logical access, all you need is a key or code to gain access to a physical location or information.
- to the "key" and not the "person" himself/herself who is "supposedly" authorized for using the "key"
- base on the "knowledge" or "acquisition" of a "key" regardless of who is using it.
Although these traditional access mechanisms had served a purpose so far, yet with the technology advancement, these conventional mechanisms are not able to provide the required level of security. Whether it is cracking, exposing, duplicating, forgetting, losing, or even sharing a password or a key its occurrence is greatly possible. This is leading to a growing threat in losing access control to physical or virtual areas and the exposure of private and sensitive information. The solution to this growing threat is through the usage of biometry.
Biometry uses peoples' biological characteristics as unique keys. Biometry transfers the access key from being on you to you. Using biometry, ekey developed its own biometric finger scan technology solution in the form of TOCAŽ that offers the following benefits:
- Increase convenience through better and secure alternatives to passwords, access codes, and keys that brings peace of mind to our customers and their customers.
- Reduce operating cost by eliminating the need for passwords expensive and time-consuming administration.
- Eliminate the risk and the burden in managing forgotten passwords and stolen credit card information.
- Increase stakeholder confidence and comfort level in e-commerce by eliminating the need for exchanging credit card information over the Internet.
- Reduce fraud and fraudulence transactions by eliminating identity thief or password sharing.
- Increase security where access is directly traceable to one person that enhances the security of the entire system.
- Eliminate the need to carry physical key to unlock doors and locks.
- Protect investments through TOCAŽ open system for supporting different biometric technologies for business and private use.
- Ensure personal identity protection against misuse, either deliberately or by accident, through TOCAŽ anonymous design in storing the biometric finger scan as encoded and encrypted electronic key that does not allow regeneration or reconstruction of the scanned image.
