Traditional vs. Fingerprint Based Security System



From the beginning of time to the present day, security systems have been an issue of concern for everyone looking to safeguard vital and important information. Walls, gates, & watchtowers were some of the security system used at that time and still these days’ to secure our home, office or premises that required security from an unwanted intruder. These security systems has been changed by the time, and it ensures modern technology to make this security more and more secure. Advanced safety and the classical security has always differed from its kind. Now the most modernize solution is known as the fingerprint-based security system that ensures protection for your home, office or to your valuable data through biometric identity authentication.

Traditional Security System

All the security system that does not apply state of the art technology to ensure security is traditional security. Till these days some of these systems still been used in any organization to provide their safety. This security system includes:
·         Pin and Password
·         Plastic ID Card
·         Security Guard(s)
·         Door lock systems
·         RFID card
·         CCTV Cameras

 

Fingerprint Based Security System

It is the most sophisticated security system that applies biometric to identify people. Every human being has a unique fingerprint that will never match with others. Even though twins might look similar, their prints will never match. Keeping these concepts in mind fingerprint-based security system is invented. This system provides access control to your home, office or places that required authorized access.It also gives security to your valuable data by ensuring allow access through biometric-based fingerprint identification.  For example VisitorTrack™ is a fingerprint based visitor tracking system, this cutting-edge technology can track your visitor, restrict unwanted intruder, provides digital badge and many more.

 

The Best Security System

For the toughest, unbreakable and highest security in your chosen area (office, home, manufacturing units, etc ) fingerprint-based security system is the best option. It is the best security system on earth and cannot be replicated through standard means.

Why not Traditional Security System

The traditional security systems have so many flaws through which this system can broke into, such as:
·         A pin, which a person could guess or pass on
·         A password might get lost, hacked or passed on
·         A plastic ID can be duplicated and can incur an extra cost of reissuing them when lost.
·         RFID cards can be duplicated, and the intruder can breach the system.
·        CCTV camera can be manipulated, and some camera provides a blurry picture for which intruder cannot be easily detected.

 

Why use a Fingerprint based Security System

The fingerprint-based security system is the most modern security system for security. It is affordable cost saving and comes with so many benefits that traditional security system cannot offers. These benefits include:
·   Fingerprint-based security system requires no password. The finger itself work as a password of an authorized person which is unbreachable.
·       It doesn’t require any plastic id card or RFID that saves a tremendous amount of money
·    Where plastic Id can be duplicated fingerprint cannot be copied and thus ensures high security
·        It cannot be manipulated or reproduced due to its unique fingerprint feature

We are born with a unique password that does not require any memorization and cannot be stolen or manipulated. A fingerprint is the most effective way to ensure accurate identification to secure your office or data or office network. So think before you choose age-old security systems, instead go for fingerprint-based security systems.

Iris Recognition vs. Retina Scanning – What are the Differences?

In biometrics, iris and retinal scanning are known as “ocular-based” identification technologies, meaning they rely on unique physiological characteristics of the eye to identify an individual. Even though they both share part of the eye for identification purposes, these biometric modalities are quite different in how they work. Let’s take a closer look at both and then explain the similarities and differences in detail: Retinal Scanning:  The human retina is a thin tissue composed of neural cells that are located in the posterior portion of the eye. Because of the complex structure of the capillaries that supply the retina with blood, each person’s retina is unique. The network of blood vessels in the retina is so complex that even identical twins do not share a similar pattern. Although retinal patterns may be altered in cases of diabetes, glaucoma or retinal degenerative disorders, the retina typically remains unchanged from birth until death. (Source: Wikipedia) ...

Finger Vein Biometrics Identification for Membership Management Software

An article published today in the University of Vermont’s campus newspaper The Vermont Cynic reported that the campus recreation center has adopted M2SYS finger vein technology for student member identification. Tim Lewis, associate director for campus recreation made the decision to use finger vein biometrics for member identification after brainstorming ideas on how to eliminate students carrying ID cards. Happy to see our finger vein biometric identification system used at the University of Vermont through a partnership we have with Vermont Systems, a recreation and parks software provider based in Essex Junction, VT. Modern-day membership management software is designed to help create efficiencies that antiquated methods simply can’t provide. In an effort to eliminate ID cards, prevent identity fraud, and create a more convenient user experience, many membership management facilities are evaluating vascular biometrics (finger vein) for identification because of the distinct ...

Misinformation about Biometric Technology Continues to Fuel Functionality Misconceptions

Today, we came across the following blog post from Guy Huntington at Infosec Island: “What Happened to My Biometric?” In the post, the author discusses the inherent dangers of opting into a biometric identification system by providing your fingerprint and the possible negative privacy and identity theft consequences if a user does not make sure that their biometric template is deleted from the system if they leave or opt-out. Our take:  While we are always pleased to see biometric technology pop up in the news or through blog postings, we often cringe when we see these types of articles that essentially do not accurately depict biometric technology, and leave readers with ill-conceived perceptions about how the technology actually works. Anyone who works in the biometric industry can attest to the fact that there is never an image of a user’s fingerprint stored. The truth of the matter is that biometric enrollment templates stored on a server are not actually an image of t...
