KeCrypt is a software security company focused on Identity Management, using proven patented biometric signature technology to identify genuine users.
A personal signature is part of everyday life and is accepted as the main method of authentication in the existing legal and financial framework.
Biometric signatures used in identity management have distinct advantages:- The signature is the most natural method of authentication and authorisation- Signatures are readily acceptable to all users-
A signature demonstrates purpose and intention to authorise. To electronically identify an individual using their signature, KeCrypt has developed a patented biometric signature technique which analyses a signature by invariant dynamics rather than through traditional image comparison techniques.
This means that the analysis and verification is done through the way a person signs as opposed to just what they sign. The KeCrypt solution has the following advantages over other techniques:-
The KeCrypt signature biometric works entirely on the dynamics of the way that the signature is written making it extremely difficult to forge- No signature template data is held, hence the process cannot be reversed and a signature cannot be replicated - Is not dependent on the user's written language-
The KeCrypt signature biometric means that template images do not have to be encrypted and managed, making personal biometric data secure from compromise and highly scalable.
