The IWS™ Biometric Engine® is a scalable, agnostic multi-biometric identity management solution that ensures only valid individuals gain access to controlled areas or attain secure documents.

The IWS™ Biometric Engine is available as part of a
Web-based, biometric enrollment and identity verification application. It is also available as a software developer’s kit (SDK) that enables system integrators to build custom identity verification applications or incorporate biometric enrollment, search and authentication functionality into existing applications.

The IWS™ Biometric Engine conducts 1:1 biometric searches to verify an individual's identity; 1:n searches to identify an individual within a population; and x:n investigative searches against watch lists and/or black lists. It is agnostic in biometric algorithm and hardware and can manage tens of millions of individuals using standard off-the-shelf hardware, minimizing the cost of ownership.

Most importantly, the IWS™ Biometric Engine provides undisputable proof of identity across large-scale populations and distributed enterprises conveniently, inexpensively and securely. The IWS™ Biometric Engine can be integrated into a variety of applications that can be deployed in a wide array of industries, such as:

Driver License Systems

National ID Systems
Airport Security
Border Control Systems
Voter Identity Verification
Access Control and Facilities Management
Law Enforcement Systems
Amusement & Events
