Sig-Tec(R) and BIO-key(R) Deliver Advanced Biometric Security Solution to Ohio County Law Enforcem...(ally critical. More than 300 enrolledcor...)

"The solution was amazingly quick to install and configure," reported Charles Van Dyke, Deputy Officer. "Sig-Tec's project management and support team led by Paul Kobs, together with my staff, completed the job remotely within about eight hours."

Sig-Tec's Single Private Desktop (SPD) and AppStarter software products secure the workstation and allow for biometric authentication for network and application access. The biometric credentials are captured at enrollment with BIO-key's patented VST identification software. Because VST stores each user's fingerprint as a mathematical template, the user's fingerprint image isn't stored on any computer or in any database -- further protecting security as well as privacy. The end-user simply puts their finger on the KSI keyboard with an integrated UPEK biometric fingerprint reader for access into both the network and authorized applications at any workstation throughout the facility.

"In addition to increased security and improved workflow, another benefit of this solution is that it will reduce password management and password reset support calls by over 90%," said Sig-Tec's National Sales Manager, John McGuire.

"The requirement to address the ever growing need to secure the network and the desktop for both the safety of the employees and the organization is critical to every entity," added Michael DePasquale, Bio-key's Chief Executive Officer. "Implementing Sig-Tec's solution not only meets these requirements while reducing operational costs, but also addresses compliance with regulations such as FIPS 201 credentialing, FFIEC compliance, HIPAA, Sarbanes Oxley, Visa PCI, and the Electronic Signatures Act."
