bullet Biometric Identity Verification Systems - Scan-IDT

OVERVIEW

bank

The Westminster Scan-IDT system is a flexible, low cost and hugely adaptable biometric identity verification system developed for banks, financial institutions, border control and other institutions where rapid and accurate identification of a person is required.

The Scan-IDT system is a modular and fully expandable I.D. system and incorporates Westminster Technologies' 'Flexybase' software which enables solutions and databases to be easily configured to clients exact requirements without costly programming changes.

The Scan-IDT system is available in four basic versions:



Scan-ID-sT

fingerprint and passport readerScan-ID-sT is an innovative cost effective entry level solution which allows individuals to be rapidly and accurately identified.

The system utilises a specially encrypted low cost I.D. card onto which is printed relevant personal information including a photograph. This information is securely encrypted within a two dimensional code (2D bar code) on a special datastrip upon the card.

Alternatively the system is able to 'read' most national passports (refer to Westminster for further information).

The Scan-ID-sT system is extremely quick and simple to use and is entirely stand alone in operation, thereby enabling use in isolated and remote areas.

The system provides a high degree of security and integrity to the client and institution alike and 2D bar codes cannot easily be compromised, unlike ordinary laminated or photographic I.D. cards, - all at a cost significantly cheaper than other technologies such as Mag-stripe or Smart cards for example.

To use the system a client or customer simply presents their card to a Scan-IDT reader and the details will be instantly displayed upon the operators console. Verification of identity is simply a matter of checking the displayed information against the subject in person - safe, quick and reliable.

Scan-ID-fT

fingerprint

The Scan-ID-fT system contains all the advantages of the Scan-ID-sT system above but in addition the datastrip contains encoded information of the individual's 'finger print'.

To use the system a client or customer simply presents their card as before but at this stage only 'unconfimed' details will appear. The client then places a finger on a small finger print reader at the counter and if the image matches that stored upon the card, the screen will show a 'verified' status.

The Scan-ID-fT system therefore provides all the advantages of speed and low cost of the Scan-ID-sT system but provides a higher degree of security and verification for more sensitive situations.

Scan-ID-cT

fingerprint reader

The Scan-ID-cT system provides all the security features of the Scan-ID-fT but holds the database of information centrally upon the operator terminal, including the 'finger print' image.

In this configuration the system may be used either with or without the card as all the verification data resides upon the operator terminal in an encrypted and extremely secure format.

The major advantage with this system is that once an individual has been registered onto the system they do not need to rely upon carrying an I.D. card, as the Westminster 'Flexybase' software is fully searchable.

To use the system a client or customer simply uses an Scan-I.DT card or informs the operator of their name/address etc and then uses the 'finger print' I.D. reader to verify the information - very simple and user friendly.

Scan-ID-netT

network

The Scan-ID-netT is quite simply a fully networkable upgrade version of the Scan-ID-cT system above.

The advantage of this system is that data can be shared between branches or regions etc. and would be suitable for clients or customers who travel extensively or institutions requiring central control of data and more detailed report and analysis of activity.

Data may be shared over Local or Wide Area Networks and is supported by Windows NT Server
