Precise Biometrics awarded the 2015 Frost & Sullivan Award for Global Customer Value Leadership in Fingerprint Biometrics for Mobile Devices
The Award is attributed to the highly efficient fingerprint software, Precise BioMatch™ Mobile, that provides superior fingerprint authentication for smartphones and tablets.
Based on its recent analysis of Fingerprint Biometrics for Mobile Devices, Frost & Sullivan honors Precise Biometrics with the 2015 Global Frost & Sullivan Award for Customer Value Leadership. In the award motivation, the highly efficient fingerprint software Precise BioMatch Mobile, which provides superior fingerprint authentication for smartphones and tablets, is praised. In 2014, Precise BioMatch Mobile was integrated in the world’s first Android smartphone with a touch fingerprint sensor.
“Precise Biometrics is a leader in fingerprint biometrics for the global mobile device market, and its fingerprint technology, which offers superior convenience and security, is critical for mobile device manufactures to ensure the transition to the new authentication paradigm”, said Nandini Bhattacharya, Senior Research Analyst at Frost & Sullivan.
In addition to offering a robust solution portfolio and ensuring a fulfilling customer experience, Frost & Sullivan commends Precise Biometrics’ best-in-class service and support that ensures a proficient customer service experience.
“Our fingerprint technology is based on nearly 20 years of research and has since the start been developed for integration in mobile devices. Over the years our products have received top rankings in performance evaluations and this award is an acknowledgement by the mobile industry that our fingerprint technology provides the best combination of convenience and security, delivering a superior end-user experience”, says Håkan Persson, CEO of Precise Biometrics.
Precise BioMatch Mobile provides easy integration of fingerprint matching functionality for smartphones and tablets, and is optimized for small touch sensors in mobile environments through a unique patented hybrid algorithm. The software offers fast, accurate, and secure verification of the user’s identity, creating a convenient user experience for consumers when unlocking their mobile device or authenticating to services, while delivering enhanced security.
While Precise BioMatch Mobile has been designed for identity authentication in mobile devices, Precise BioMatch Embedded, which is based on the same fingerprint algorithm, can be used to integrate fingerprint authentication in any hardware platform, such as time and attendance units, point-of-sale terminals, computers and more.
In the analysis of fingerprint biometrics for mobile devices, Frost & Sullivan states that the continued rise in identity theft and fraudulent activities has resulted in a growing demand for a stricter authentication process for mobile devices. While one’s personal identification number (PIN) and password can easily be forgotten or stolen, fingerprint technology provides improved security and convenience for the user. This has led to staggering growth in the demand for fingerprint authentication capability among mobile manufacturers and original equipment manufacturers (OEMs). They not only require a high-precision authentication technology, but they also require a solution that can easily fit into the mobile environment.
