Fingerprint ReadersWhy Risk It?

Security Where, When, and How you Need It

Recent data from Risk Based Security1 revealed that the number of records exposed
has increased to a staggering 36 billion in 2020. There were 3,932 publicly reported
breaches in the first three quarters of 2020, with the three months of Q3 adding an
additional 8.3 billion records to what was already the “worst year on record.”
While no security solution can guarantee full protection, biometrics is yet anotherstrong link in your security chain. In addition to the inherent uniqueness of anindividual's biometric data (and therefore the level of security this offers), biometrics
offers a passwordless solution
