Argus showcases biometric solutions

Sydney, 8th December 2014- The Argus Global team attended the ASIS mini trade show on the 23^rd of October at the National Portrait Gallery in Canberra. Argus showcased just a few of their many biometric solutions to around 100 Consultants and Government guests, including:

·         Cornerstone True Identity integrated with Iris recognition and Multispectral Finger Print

·         Argus’ Secure Asset Management System (SAMS) used for Security Sensitive Asset issuance and tracking, inclusive of Argus’ Cornersafe electronic key safe management system

·         Mobile logical access control

Guests got to experience iris scanning technology with Argus’ comprehensive biometric identity product suite which delivers multiple applications with multiple biometric capabilities known as, Cornerstone. It is used in Federal and State Government. Guests had the option to enrol their iris at the front entrance and be identified at the Argus booth.

Argus showcased their secure and flexible key safe management solution which combines the latest biometric identity management technology with the simplicity of a touch screen kiosk.

Also on display was the Morpho 3D face scanner, which is a three-dimensional facial recognition biometric system used for access control.

Guests got to play with Authasas, a mobile logical access control solution. It utilises the smartphones data channel to deliver ultra-secure push authentication information to the user, to ensure a secure login.

Speaking at the event was Argus’s Group Director of Sales and Marketing Damien Davis;

“Biometric devices and the ever increasing number and type of software applications being developed to deliver on their promise present to Government and NGO’s significant opportunity to address risk and enhance services. Adoption is fast reaching the point of crossing Everet’s technology chasm! This is the time of greatest risks for Government and Non-Government alike. With over 100 differing technologies, manufacturers and algorithm developers, how does one develop appropriate frameworks and criteria for considered decisions? It is in these times vendors will attempt to provide what are in fact highly specialised services. Organisations need to think first about developing appropriate frameworks for vetting their prospective vendors well before considering any offerings or advice. It’s an exciting time for all of us. We will see Biometrics come to the forefront of everyday living and trade in the not too distant future.”
