BELLEVUE, Wash.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Jan. 20, 2004

Cutting-edge solution to provide integration of video motion

technology, facial recognition, and iris authentication

SAFLINK(R) Corporation (Nasdaq:SFLK), a leading developer, marketer, and integrator of biometric security solutions, announced today that it has been selected by Computer Sciences Corporation (NYSE:CSC), a leading global information technology (IT) services company, to engineer CSC's integrated identification and tracking solution for a military research and demonstration initiative.

The identification and tracking solution will demonstrate the integration of facial recognition, video object recognition and tracking, and iris biometric authentication for physical access control and classified workstation security within a group at the Department of Defense. The contract is part of an advanced biometrics test contract awarded to CSC valued in excess of $50 million.

Multiple-phase project

For the first phase of the project, currently underway, SAFLINK will provide the design and proof of concept model. This engineering phase is valued at approximately $150,000. Pending a successful completion of the first phase, a pilot implementation of the system will involve the deployment of pilot installations on Department of Defense tactical assets. The value of this phase is yet to be determined.

Cutting-edge security

This system is designed to eliminate traditional physical barriers -- such as walls and doors -- on tactical operating platforms within the Department of Defense. This innovative approach to physical security will use a fusion of 3D facial recognition in concert with advanced video object recognition technologies to create a "soft barrier" around the sensitive operating areas. The system will be designed to authenticate individuals crossing into a secure area, track those individuals within the secure perimeter, and authenticate them to secure workstations via iris recognition.

"CSC has produced a unique identity and tracking design by integrating multiple security technologies in a way that safeguards high security information and workstations without inconveniencing authorized system users," says Robert Turbeville, senior vice president for Physical Access Control Systems at SAFLINK. "Teaming with a company like CSC gives SAFLINK the opportunity to engineer innovative solutions to complex access control problems."

"This project with CSC is just one example of the benefits SAFLINK achieved by our recent purchase of the physical access security technology from the Biometric Solutions Group announced on December 29, 2003," said SAFLINK CEO Glenn Argenbright. "That technology allows us to provide an integrated physical and logical biometric security solution in unique environments -- a capability that we simply didn't have prior to the acquisition."
