Why Should You Opt for Biometrics-as-a-Service for Your Work Environment?

The need for authentication and identification technology keeps on increasing exponentially with every year of technological advancement passing by. Using biological data that is unique to every individual is one of the best ways to determine and verify someone’s identity as it offers little to no room for error. That is part of the reason why the biometrics-as-a-service industry keeps on growing every year, expected to become worth over $2.9 billion by the year 2022.

There is a multitude of reasons which make biometrics-as-a-service the ideal choice for many organizations and firms as opposed to investing in their very own internal biometrics systems and operations. One of the major advantages biometrics-as-a-service brings to its users is the fact that it allows you to avail a handy service and apply it to your system without having to worry about instability, affordable costs, and system maintenance. The upfront costs are low, there are little to no hidden or extra expenditures associated with the service, and the payments are predictable, making it a sustainable and financially stable model for commercial and internal use. Not only that, but it also guarantees you the quality of the service as you can expect the service provider to keep track of the necessary upgrades, repairs, maintenance, and security pertaining to the service and software. You pay for what you take and you get exactly what is promised, making it a relatively risk-free and cost-effective solution to your authentication needs.

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) A bi

Tips to Prevent Time Theft in Kronos Central/Dimension/Ready

A high-performing workforce management system, like Kronos, facilitates enterprises to forecast, schedule, and manage the time & attendance, absenteeism, labor activities, analytics, and collect employee’s data. Depending on the organization’s type and purpose, Kronos offers different workforce management suites like Workforce Central, Workforce Dimension Suite, and Workforce Ready Suite. The core objective of all of these solutions is to ensure maximum productivity by leveraging employee accountability, controlling labor costs, and increasing efficiency. But when it comes to time theft, it can cause some major issues and hamper the data’s accuracy and the effectiveness of the Kronos workforce management suites. Time Theft and its Impact on Business Time theft occurs when an employee is paid for the time they have not actually worked, or for the time they were not actually at work at all. Sometimes they will use friends and colleagues to help punch in his or her office

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
