IBM Receives Frost & Sullivan Customer Value Leadership Award for its Mobile Identity and Access Management Solutions

MOUNTAIN VIEW, Calif., May 20, 2014 /PRNewswire/ -- Based on its recent analysis of mobile authentication, Frost & Sullivan recognizes IBM with the 2014 Global Frost & Sullivan Award for Customer Value Leadership. Central to the company's success in generating value for customers is the integration of various mobile security, mobile identity, and access management solutions. IBM's strong value proposition with regards to the provisioning of context-based authentication for multiple mobile device types and mobile applications has also been instrumental to its success.

"When it comes to identity and access management, organizations often face a trade-off between improving security levels and delivering greater end-user convenience," said Frost & Sullivan Senior Industry Analyst Mario Fernandez. "IBM breaks the security/end-user convenience trade-off through its IBM Security Access Manager for Mobile appliance."

The IBM Security Access Manager for Mobile appliance's risk engine determines the risk of an end user's authentication attempt by comparing it with a historical behavior profile of that user, which contains information related to the volume, type and frequency of transactions; Internet protocol reputation; geographic location; and device fingerprinting. On ascertaining the risk, the appropriate authentication method is applied. While low-risk access attempts require simple authentication methods such as a password, high-risk access attempts might involve hardware or software one-time password tokens.

To determine the appropriate authentication method, the IBM Security Access Manager for Mobile risk engine also pays heed to the application or data that the end user wants to access. For instance, if an end user wants to access a business-critical application or confidential data, then they must use an authentication method with a high degree of irrefutability. Essentially then, security becomes context-based and organizations can establish—and seamlessly enforce—access management policies without introducing greater end-user inconvenience.

The value proposition of IBM's Security Access Manager for Mobile appliance is enhanced through the integration of other IBM products, including IBM Security Access Manager for Web, which adds content security capabilities to protect against attacks such as SQL injection and cross-site scripting. Likewise, IBM's Federated Identity Manager, which supports the Security Assertion Markup Language (SAML), WS-Federation and OpenID standard protocols, can enable federated single sign-on. This facilitates the integration of cloud services, such as Google Apps or Office 365, which also support the above-mentioned protocols.

In a bid to remain ahead of its competitors, IBM added two important security companies and their corresponding products to its portfolio in 2013—Trusteer and Fiberlink. The company has also drawn up a future-proof product roadmap that recognizes that biometric authentication methods and contactless technologies will play a prominent role in enabling mobile access.

"Already, IBM's scientists have developed an algorithm to determine biometric-based authentication risk scores and risk analysis that can be incorporated into IBM Security Access Manager for Mobile," said Fernandez.

Each year, Frost & Sullivan presents this award to the company that demonstrates excellence in implementing strategies that proactively create value for its customers with a focus on improving the return on the investment that customers make in its services or products. This award recognizes the company's inordinate focus on enhancing the value that its customers receive, beyond simply good customer service, leading to improved customer retention and, ultimately, customer base expansion.

Frost & Sullivan Best Practices Awards recognize companies in a variety of regional and global markets for demonstrating outstanding achievement and superior performance in areas such as leadership, technological innovation, customer service and strategic product development. Industry analysts compare market participants and measure performance through in-depth interviews, analysis and extensive secondary research to identify best practices in the industry.

NexID First To Offer "Liveness Detection" Software For Mobile Devices

WASHINGTON, March 18, 2014 /PRNewswire/ -- As mobile device manufacturers embed fingerprint ID into millions of smartphones, NexID Biometrics today introduces its Mobile Live Finger Detection (LFD) software, the first liveness detection solution designed specifically to exceed the convenience and security needs of mobile users worldwide. The software provides authentication rates as high as 94-97 percent, offering the highest levels of "spoof-proofing" software available on the market today.

NexID developed the Mobile LFD software solution specifically for mobile devices. Due to the variety of fingerprint-scanning solutions on the market, the company designed the software to be technology agnostic so it could work with all fingerprint sensors and mobile devices, while achieving fast execution times and resource efficiency.

The Mobile LFD software resides in a mobile device and detects whether an image captured by the device's fingerprint sensor is detecting a finger from a living person or if it's a fake or "spoofed" fingerprint.

Adding live finger detection enhances the device's security and helps eliminate unlocking a phone or one of its applications that may contain confidential information. As evidenced with Apple's iPhone 5S TouchID, fingerprint sensors are actually highly vulnerable to hacking without some form of liveness detection.

NexID will introduce Mobile LFD here this week in Booth #202 at the Connect: ID Expo, where company executives will discuss and illustrate fingerprint spoofing techniques and fake finger detection. Additionally, Clarkson University professor and NexID co-owner, Dr. Stephanie Schuckers, will be speaking at the conference at 1:50 p.m. today on the topic of "Fake Fingers and Stolen Templates: Topics in Biometric Security."

"Two of the world's leading mobile device makers now include fingerprint identification on their devices, so it doesn't take a crystal ball to see that trend continuing," said NexID COO Mark Cornett. "We believe every mobile device will incorporate some type of fingerprint ID functionality in the next couple of years. And with people relying more and more on their devices, the security of personal, financial, health and business information is not just needed, it's imperative. "

For example, businesses contemplating adopting Bring Your Own Device (BYOD) programs face the need to ensure company information on mobile devices remains private and secure; meanwhile, employees may opt for more convenience to access phone features on the same devices. Mobile LFD offers a sliding scale of security for fingerprint ID on smartphones, allowing for a simple and flexible solution.

NexID said its Mobile LFD can immediately enhance the myriad of fingerprint ID solutions being developed by sensor manufacturers, mobile devices companies, and application developers. Fingerprint sensor companies can embed the software directly onto a sensor's chip (LFD on chip), and device manufacturers can add it to the main processor (LFD on host), all to provide customers with a convenient alternative to traditional PINs and passwords. NexID's Mobile LFD solution can also be embedded in "trust zone" or trusted execution environment chip sets.

The Mobile LFD SDK will be distributed free for evaluation, solution integration, and testing purposes. NexID also offers professional services to assist with the solution integration process. Licensing and distribution agreements are negotiated separately.

For more information on NexID Mobile LFD, please visit www.nexidbiometrics.com. A white paper on liveness detection, including examples of how the company researches and tests different "spoofing" techniques, is also available.

About NexID Biometrics
NexID Biometrics is a leading software and technology supplier to the biometric authentication industry. The company develops and licenses liveness detection software that enables fingerprint-scanning technologies to more accurately, and with greater confidence, authenticate scanned images by mitigating spoof-related risks. The company also provides testing and analysis of fingerprint scanning devices to identify existing vulnerabilities to known spoofing strategies. The company's founders represent some of the world's leading authorities on biometric spoof mitigation and liveness detection.

Credence ID lance un appareil mobile à triple biométrie innovant pour l'enrôlement et la vérification

- La conception totalement intégrée de Trident, basée sur Android™, produit une saisie rapide des données biométriques avec n'importe quel éclairage

EMERYVILLE, Californie, 14 février 2014 /PRNewswire/ -- Credence ID, LLC., une société de la baie de San Francisco, a annoncé aujourd'hui la disponibilité du Trident® le nouveau combiné à biométrie triple qui intègre une double saisie simultanée de l'iris, le capteur d'empreintes digitales FAP45, certifié PIV et un appareil photo. Ces trois fonctions sont totalement intégrées et activées par un hôte Android™ à quatre cœurs. Le produit est conçu pour répondre aux besoins des programmes biométriques à grande échelle, d'organisations civiles, militaires et policières et pour lesquels la mobilité et une saisie fiable dans toutes les conditions d'éclairage sont des exigences fondamentales. La souplesse d'Android permet également un développement rapide et simplifié des applications. Pesant moins de 1360 grammes, Trident donne aux opérateurs la capacité d'exécuter des concordances à la fois sur l'appareil ou par l'intermédiaire de multiples réseaux de communications, y compris cellulaire ou WIFI. Le GPS, pour la géolocalisation automatique et Bluetooth, pour la connexion des périphériques, sont également des fonctionnalités standard de Trident.

Les intégrateurs ou les développeurs de solutions peuvent désormais accélérer le développement des applications biométriques pour leurs clients en utilisant le système d'exploitation d'Android et le kit de développement logiciel de Credence, grâce auxquels les cycles de développement sont considérablement raccourcis et les appareils portables intelligents peuvent être équipés d'interfaces utilisateur graphiques dont l'aspect répond aux attentes des utilisateurs. Le kit de développement logiciel inclut également un code source pour de nombreuses fonctions communes, permettant aux partenaires de mettre les applications de leurs clients rapidement en service.

« Le marché de la biométrie avait besoin d'un appareil comme le Trident. Jusqu'à maintenant, la saisie de l'iris et des empreintes dans un appareil intégré était difficile lorsque la lumière naturelle était forte. Les appareils basés sur Windows, développés à l'origine pour les militaires, sont comparativement difficiles à utiliser en plein air et le développement d'applications pour nos clients était laborieux et onéreux. Les utilisateurs actuels peuvent compter sur un périphérique de poche aussi convivial que leur téléphone intelligent. C'est formidable de posséder tout cela dans un appareil source ouverte dont le coût est environ le tiers des autres équipements commercialisés actuellement », déclare Ken Nosker, PDG de Fulcrum Biometrics, distributeur autorisé et partenaire de Credence ID.

VaxTrac Announces Continued Support for Expansion of Biometric-based Mobile Vaccine Registry Programs in Benin

A health worker updates a vaccination record in the VaxTrac system. (PRNewsFoto/VaxTrac)jwplayer.key="2kY/GKwZ2uQZmDlQ9VYArfZt2b4+KhHX3+DM4zisgtE=";WASHINGTON, Dec. 5, 2013 /PRNewswire/ -- VaxTrac is pleased to announce a recent investment of $695,431 from the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation which will provide new technology and ongoing support for the expansion—both geographic and functional—of mobile vaccine registry systems in health facilities in Benin, West Africa. This investment will enable new health centers to receive the resources and training necessary to effectively integrate the VaxTrac system into their vaccination program with the goal of improving record-keeping practices, reducing vaccine waste, and improving schedule adherence, especially for children under the age of five.

The VaxTrac system is a suite of data collection and analysis tools tailored specifically for immunization programs in developing countries. It uses a technology portfolio comprised of laptops, tablets and mobile phones to collect data and fingerprint scanners to accurately identify patients. This serves to overcome the primary driver of the current inefficiency in the vaccine delivery system: a lack of information.

In addition to the geographic expansion, VaxTrac will also lead an effort in Benin to re-evaluate the vaccine information management system from a more holistic perspective, integrating the previously segregated functions of health records, population statistics, stock management, and cold chain performance monitoring. This activity will also identify the broad array of stakeholders throughout the vaccination process and how they interact with system data. Underlying all of these activities is the motivation that technology can—when thoughtfully applied in combination with a thorough understanding of the unique user requirements of community health workers—greatly facilitate efficiency and effectiveness improvements in the vaccine delivery system.

This award is the result of continued collaboration among VaxTrac, the Benin Ministry of Health, UNICEF, and the World Health Organization since early 2012 to implement and support clinic-level vaccine data collection technology in 30 health facilities throughout several districts across the coastal region of Benin. With this new phase of the project, VaxTrac will roll out the latest version of its system to approximately 120 health facilities, fully saturating an administrative division roughly equivalent to that of a US state.
