Law enforcement agencies and various immigration control centres around the world already make use of biometrics fingerprint recognition systems. With a proven track record of more than a decade of usage, the technology has also advanced significantly allowing for full integration with other security systems.

With advances in technology the biometrics readers for fingerprint recognition have also become smaller, more advanced, accurate, easier to use and can be even be integrated with laptop usage.

How Fingerprint Recognition Works

Because every person has a unique set of fingerprints, the records can easily be matched for verification. Every fingerprint has a unique pattern of furrows and ridges. Scanning is done to recognize the specific pattern of ridge endings. It is used for identification purposes based on the biometric properties of a person’s fingers.

Most of the biometric scanning systems using fingerprint recognition include a sensor that does the scan and a processor that does the storage of the data to a database. In addition, the systems are linked to software that does the comparison of a newly scanned print with the data already in the database. Matching takes place in relation to a person’s ID number, PIN code, account details or employment number.

Extended Usage Possibilities

Biometric fingerprint recognition is no longer only used for access control allowance, but also for the streamlining of payroll systems. Instead of paperwork to be completed stating hours worked or using a card system to monitor the coming and going of employees, fingerprint reading is done at various points. The data is fed directly to the payroll system, easing the administrative burden of calculating worked hours. The hours are automatically calculated.
Network Security Improvement

Even database managers now make extensive usage of the technology to control remote access to information. With such then network security has also improved. Labs, medical research centres and navigation control centres now make extensive usage of biometrics, and more specific, fingerprint scanning for access control and payroll management in one.

IDtek as a leading provider of high-tech and integrated safety and security solutions at airports, large public spaces, retail centres, residential buildings, and laboratories, has already done several installations and has also become a leader in the provision and installation of advanced biometrics fingerprint recognition systems in Southern Africa.

The fingerprint access system enhances overall security at a cost effective rate. Not only access control to premises, but also user identification at large theme parks, video stores, and other retail centres are now done by means of biometric identification. There are even biometric enabled flash disks and computer access in addition to security measures for mobile phone usage. In short, the technology is here to stay and has been improved considerably over the past few years for more accuracy and functionality.

Fingerprint Reader Technology

The fingerprint scanner is used to scan certain points on the finger even if the finger is damp or dry. The information is sent to a central database where such can then be matched in future when the fingerprint is scanned again. Apart from static devices, mobile readers are also now used by police, traffic controllers and other authorities to quickly identify and verify identification of the individual.

The reader is only one part of the fingerprint access system. With full security integration at client premises, IDtek has successfully linked large payroll and time management systems with biometric fingerprint access controlled doors. This helps to streamline end-of-month payroll and also ensures higher productivity because of increased monitoring capabilities regarding the whereabouts of workers.

Improved Security

Perhaps the single most important benefit of the fingerprint access system is the improvement of security. Where access cards can be lost or stolen and passwords cracked, the individual fingerprint cannot be stolen easily. As such an employee cannot give a card to another to enter the premise. It must be the specific individual.

Improved Privacy

Privacy is furthermore improved. With notebooks fingerprint access enabled, another person cannot simply make use of the resource. The same applies at the workplace at computers and designated areas. By means of a fingerprint access system complete records can be kept about who entered and made use of a resource at what time. This helps to protect confidential information and to prevent fraud.

Full Integration with IT Technologies

The fingerprint enabled systems installed and maintained by IDtek at large client premises work with other IT security based systems. Because of quick identification and verification, there are no more lines at the entrance doors because of people who forgot passwords or cards which do not properly register when swiped. Because single point failure has been taken care of, maintenance costs can be reduced and equipment lifespan can be increased.

Reduced Administration

For the user it means no more card carrying. Swiping of cards leads to damage over time and it is not uncommon to find that the magnetic strips no longer work after a year or two. Such must be replaced and thus costs the company more. With fingerprint technology an employee doesn’t have to be concerned when a card is left at home. Every time a card is left at home, administrative tasks are involved in recording the come and go of the employee. Such must be inputted for accurate payroll. Not so when using a fingerprint access system since the finger can hardly be misplaced.
