Identity One Certifies BioManager with AMAG Technology

Identity One Certifies BioManager with AMAG TechnologyAMAG Technology, an access control, IP video and intrusion detection (IDS) solution provider, is pleased to announce that Identity One is now a member of the Symmetry Extended Business Solutions Program as a Certified Partner.  Identity One has certified its BioManager biometric middleware with AMAG’s Symmetry v7.0.1 Security Management System, which combines its biometric middleware solution with AMAG’s Symmetry access control software. AMAG and Identity One cooperatively tested and certified this integration.

“AMAG customers now have the option to integrate their Symmetry Security Management System with Identity One’s state-of-the-art BioManager biometric middleware, providing another option for their biometrics needs,” said AMAG Technology, Symmetry Extended Business Solution, Program Manager, Shae Taylor. “I am excited they have joined AMAG’s Extended Business Solutions Program, and look forward to working with them and providing cutting edge solutions for end users.”

“The BioManager/Symmetry integration provides customers with a seamless link between Symmetry card holders and the latest finger vein/print and 3D face biometric technology,” said David Smith, CEO, Identity One Corporation. “Combining the most accurate and reliable fingerprint, finger vein\print and 3D face  biometrics available with the feature rich Symmetry access control platform provides end users with the most convenient and most secure access control solution available.”

The Symmetry and BioManager integration provides many benefits for end users such as:

  • Easily search for users and complete a biometric enrollment;
  • Details are automatically shared and updated; and
  • No duplicate cardholder\user data entry - only one system to administer.

BioManager middleware creates a single data view of Symmetry card holder and biometric enrollments for fingerprint, finger-vein and 3D face.  Identity One’s biometric solutions are independently ranked #1 by NIST (National Institute of Standards Technology) for accuracy and reliability. They are simple to install and include a variety of models to accommodate different installation environments.  Existing Symmetry systems can be easily retrofitted with biometrics for an immediate increase in security.

  • From Surveillance to Intelligence

    Years ago, it would have been significantly more expensive to run an analytic like that — requiring a custom-built solution with burdensome infrastructure demands — but modern edge devices have made it accessible to everyone. It also saves time, which is a critical factor if a missing child is involved. Video compression technology has played a critical role as well. Over the years, significant advancements have been made in video coding standards — including H.263, MPEG formats, and H.264—alongside compression optimization technologies developed by IP video manufacturers to improve efficiency without sacrificing quality. The open-source AV1 codec developed by the Alliance for Open Media—a consortium including Google, Netflix, Microsoft, Amazon and others — is already the preferred decoder for cloud-based applications, and is quickly becoming the standard for video compression of all types.
