Requirement
- Customer’s authorization to be done over the internet via online client/server model
- Transaction enablement even at limited or low bandwidth
- Size of each fingerprint template should be 1K to speed up the transit time at low network
speed
- Heterogenous Environment Management for customer identity using Laptop, Tablet and
Mobile Platform for Biometric Verification
- At least six fingerprints need to be enrolled for each customer
- Authentication server with enablement of giving appropriate messages
- Secure verification and transactions processed by the bank’s server on global online basis
Solution Deployed
Precision Biometric teamed with IIT, Madras (Rural Technology Business Incubator) and proposed
fingerprint based biometrics authentication for the customers over the internet, which eliminates
the complex process of authentication through PIN and Password
Biometric Solution: The solution is designed to integrate the Biometric solution in a client server
architecture solution consists of the below mentioned two components:
- Device Driver: The client-side driver contains the fingerprint capturing and extraction
process
- Cloud Server: Cloud server contains Biometric Engine, Database, Configuration and
Synchronization Modules
- Hardware: Scanner will be connected to every PC/Laptop Mobile, Tablet and Thin client via
USB/Micro USB port
Benefits:
-
- Ease of use with Heterogenous Environment Support in term of Android, Windows, and Unix
Server
- Takes away the complexity of authentication through PIN and password
