U.are.U Fingerprint Sensor
 

U.are.U Pro for Active Directory

      U.are.U Pro Fingerprint Authentication System
  • U.are.U Pro is a fingerprint authentication system for enterprises that was to eliminate the burdens and security problems of passwords based authentication.
  • U.are.U Pro uses advanced fingerprint recognition technology to heighten security and replace passwords.
  • U.are.U Pro for Active directory is specifically designed to take full advantage of the enterprise-class directory services and management capabilities of Microsoft Windows 2000 Active Directory.
    The password Security Problem
  • Most organizations face increasing pressure to secure access to their network and applications. Their efforts are constrained by the practices of frustrated users who create trivial passwords, write them on Post-it notes or use the same password for many different applications. Password-based user authentication remains the weakest link in the security chain and a large burden for end-users and IT support staff.
    Fingerprint Authentication
  • U.are.U Pro utilizes state-of-the-art fingerprint recognition to allow users to securely and quickly log on with the touch of their finger.
  • Unlike password and token-based authentication, fingerprint authentication is based on who you are, eliminating the burden and usage problems associated with passwords and tokens.
  • The entire fingerprint recognition subsystem, including the optics, firmware, driver and the software recognition engine, is designed and optimized by DigitalPersona for unmatched performance and reliability.
  • Its award-winning technology makes it easy to provide users with the heightened security and increased convenience of fingerprint recognition technology.
    Reduced Support Costs
  • Adding fingerprint authentication produces measurable financial benefits and a rapid return-on-investment (ROI). By removing the need for your users to remember passwords you never have to worry about resetting those passwords or fielding the many support calls for last or forgotten passwords. The results are clear...dramatically increased customer and partner satisfaction, increased employee uptime and reduced help desk and support costs.
    Heightened Security
  • Effective password security is nearly impossible. U.are.U Pro makes it easy for users to maintain security because it's based on who they are  (not what they can remember).
  • U.are.U Pro also delivers additional security capabilities, such as two factor authentication, to support a full range of security needs. U.are.U Pro is a highly secure, end-to-end system. From the sensor to the server database, the system uses encryption and data signature technology to preserve privacy and system integrity.
    Easy implement
  • Beyond the benefits of heightened security and convenience, implementing U.are.U Pro is simple. Both the client and server software are quick and easy to install. Because U.are.U Pro leverages the Microsoft Windows Active Directory management tools, additional administrative training is minimal. This turnkey application is a simple and powerful next step for a more secure network
