IriTech, Arxan partner for new biometric security solution

Thursday, February 24, 2011

IriTech, a developer of iris-based biometric hardware and software solutions, has announced a new software security solution developed jointly with software security developer Arxan Technologies.

The new solution utilizes IriTech high-resolution iris cameras, Iris Software Development Kit and patented matching algorithm in conjunction with an additional layer of security from Arxan’s GuardIT application which protects the system and its algorithm.

GuardIT uses obfuscation, checksum, repair, anti-debug and other techniques for code protection. This protects a biometric system’s user from having any leaked biometric data being able to be reverse engineered into usable information for a fraudster. [end]
