Bionopoly and Aeros Aviation Team to Unveil Fingerprint Access Control Device; Unique Gadget Dynamically Generates Passwords From Fingerprints.


LAS VEGAS Las Vegas (läs vā`gəs), city (1990 pop. 258,295), seat of Clark co., S Nev.; inc. 1911. It is the largest city in Nevada and the center of one of the fastest-growing urban areas in the United States.  -- Bionopoly, the low-cost leader in fingerprint technology, and Aeros Aviation have unveiled at CES a new biometric access control device billed as the first standalone "Fingerprint Passcode Generator." The device is designed to dynamically generate alphanumeric passcodes based on an authorized user's unique fingerprint. The device is designed to enhance security for access to a computer, network, database, website, or facility.

Admin Control

The system is easily managed and centrally controlled. The database administrator knows and controls who accesses the system at all times. During setup, each device generates a unique alphanumeric key derived from the user's fingerprint, which is entered into the system. The owner of the device will then be able to generate passcodes that are mathematically related to the original key. Removing the key from the database will invalidate use of the device.

Two-Factor Authentication The use of two independent mechanisms for authentication; for example, requiring a smart card and a password. The combination is less likely to allow abuse than either component alone. See authentication.  

Today, USB tokens are commonly used in conjunction with 4-digit PINs. Banks and other financial institutions are particularly interested in this "two-factor" authentication (1) Verifying the integrity of a transmitted message. See message integrity, e-mail authentication and MAC.

(2) Verifying the identity of a user logging into a network.
. However, PINs and tokens can be lost or stolen. Because a fingerprint is more difficult to steal or duplicate, the Fingerprint Passcode Generator affords a superior level of security.
