Large-Scale Identity Applications

A biometric recognition system is a proven and reliable way to verify identities. This technology is used in various areas, including border control with machine-readable passports, healthcare, voter identification, and restricted access areas.

  • Passport and visa documentation 
  • Border control 
  • Voter registration and election monitoring systems 
  • Credit card transaction control 
  • Crime scene investigations 
  • National Identity Enrollment and Verification
  • Agency Banking for the Financial Inclusion of unbanked and underbanked populations

Key Features

BIO-key’s civil and large-scale identity solutions are built on WEB-key, our award-winning, standards-based central biometric management platform. WEB-key automates and manages the entire lifecycle of biometric identities, including creation, deduplication, identification, logging, reporting, distribution, backup, and retention management.

enrollment onboarding

Enrollment/Onboarding

BIO-key provides customizable workflows for onboarding, which include document capture, ID scans, and webcam photo capture. Our system also features integrated optional consent management to obtain informed written consent before biometric enrollment, ensuring compliance with GDPR, the Illinois Biometric Information Privacy Act, and local data protection regulations for commercial operators.

All enrollment functions, including webcam and document scanners, are compatible with web and thin clients, supporting all modern browsers. For added flexibility, BIO-key supports over 40 USB and device-integrated fingerprint scanners interchangeably, with server configuration options that allow restrictions on which readers can be used for enrollments (e.g., FBI PIV scanners only). Additionally, real-time duplicate enrollment detection can be performed during the enrollment process, identifying any duplicates before the enrollee leaves.

standards based credentialing

Standards-based Credentialing

WEB-key is MINEX and PIV Level 1 certified, enabling the creation, export, import, and matching of standards-based templates for both exchange and on-card storage. After enrolling an individual, their standards-based templates can be accessed through secure APIs, simplifying credential creation. Additionally, WEB-key supports ISO and ANSI MINEX template exchange formats.

identity duplication

Identity Deduplication

BIO-key’s platforms generate high-speed indices of enrollment data, enabling real-time duplicate detection during enrollment and offline batch duplicate or alias searches. Scrubbing a dataset for uniqueness is a core competency of BIO-key’s platform, allowing operators to work with a cleaned dataset that maintains unique individual identities.
