The Common Problem

1. Possession of an object

SecureSystem

2. Knowledge of information

Cards can be lost

Pin can be compromised

3. Physical Presence

4. Genkey Biocryptics

Fear of compromising biometrics?

FOUR layers of Security

Patented technology collapses biometrics and converts it into crypto keys

Genkey Biocryptics Benefits

Biocryptics vs. Biometrics

Traditional Biometric solution Genkey Biocryptic

BiometricAnalysis

Based on minutia points. Based on several features such as patterns and shape.

Cost Very expensive propriety hardware

Demands high end networks.

Standard hardware at a fraction of the cost.

Network traffic is very limited.

Offlinecapability

No offline capability Offline fully supported- Light database- Smart synchronization

Privacy Biometric saved as an image/template

Can be recreated

Only the irreversible Public Key is stored.

Misuse is impossible.

Side-by-Side

Traditional Biometric solution Genkey Biocryptic

Speed Image/template comparison1:n ~ 7000 per sec. on a standard CPU

Number comparison1:n ~ 1 300 000 on standard CPU

Mobility Image/template database size prohibitive on smaller devices

Number database can carry millions of keys on a laptop or small device

Multiple modalities

One image/template per modality (iris, face etc.).Resulting database size prohibitive on standard devices

All modalities are collapsed into one key. Database size and search speed is the same.

ID Document

Smart Card with sufficient storage capacity

No limitationsPaper based (barcode), magnetic stripe, RFID, low-level smart card, ….
