CogniSign markets its technology to the security, defense, and enterprise sectors, and recently introduced xcavator, its consumer platform. "Our technology is military strength, but we feel it contains an important value proposition for the consumer market as well," said Bryan Calkins, CEO of CogniSign. "A casual user demands technology that is powerful enough to work intuitively with no training, and give great results. We are extending the technology to make that transition to the consumer space."
