SuperSign integrates Suprema fingerprint scanner

April 2017 Access Control & Identity Management, Integrated Solutions

Fourier IT and Suprema have announced that SuperSign now supports the BioMini Slim fingerprint scanner.

For over ten years, Fourier IT’s SuperSign secure sign-on (network and application sign-on) solution has been reducing risk in a diversity of industry sectors. SuperSign mitigates IT-related fraud and unauthorised access to information on IT infrastructure through biometric verification. The business case for biometric logical access is mission critical for all organisations.

Passwords are fundamentally flawed. Cards, pins and tokens are inherently unsecure, easily exploited and problematic to manage. In complete contrast, fingerprint biometrics produce consistent, fast and correct identification. They offer levels of trusted accuracy, convenience and security that simply cannot be achieved through the traditional methods.

SuperSign also assists with making the personal information, a company stores about people, PoPI compliant. With SuperSign being fully integrated into Active Directory and Novel E, it can seamlessly be deployed into existing Identity Management Systems. SuperSign has been tested and deployed in several government departments, working with high-risk internal applications, which makes it a favourable application within government.

“We are pleased to see Suprema integrated into solutions such as SuperSign. SuperSign integrates biometric-enabled logical access in an intuitive way into almost any application without the need to change the actual application. This partnership will open various opportunities for our partners in both the private and public sector. The engineering, support and customer service infrastructure and capability provided by Fourier IT make us extremely comfortable to add this to the Suprema offering,” says Walter Rautenbach, MD neaMetrics – authorised distributor of Suprema in Africa.

Suprema’s BioMini Slim features a large platen size, Automatic Finger Placement Detection, Advanced LFD (Live Finger Detection) and FBI PIV and Mobile ID FAP20 certification, making fingerprint capturing easier, accurate and more secure.

Packed in an IP65 grade dust and waterproof form factor, BioMini Slim operates equally well outside, under direct sunlight, as it does inside through the use of Multi-Dynamic Range Technology, enabling high-quality fingerprint capture regardless of external light or fingerprint conditions.
