There is a need for biometrics solutions in all government agencies—even schools and campuses— because they have employees and citizens accessing its networks and logging on to its applications. Biometrics adds additional security beyond physical and virtual credentials based on voice authentication, facial recognition, and finger print identification.
Examples of needs or issues that biometrics solutions can solve:
|
| Agencies that provide benefits and entitlement programs deal with a large amount of identity theft and fraud. Users of their applications have multiple IDs and false aliases and large amounts of money are funneled to the wrong place.Government agencies have a large need for biometrics to help secure their nation’s ports. Biometrics can help border management control who and what comes in and leaves the country with the proper identification of foreign visitors and hazardous materials (run names against the country’s watch lists, match fingerprints in databases). |
Wireless geo-tracking solutions
| Even agencies without direct responsibility for defence or homeland security realize that protecting people and assets are absolutely essential to the success of their missions. HP wireless geo-tracking solutions are fully integrated systems that monitor, secure, command, and control vulnerable or vital assets, vehicles, personnel, and compounds. |
