Privaris BPID™ LFBT Security Device, V1.4
4. SECURITY & PERSONAL PRIVACY
Key points related to the security of the BPID™ device and the user’s
personal privacy:
All fingerprint processing is done within the device, so fingerprints do
not have to be stored in any type of database, thereby protecting the
user’s personal privacy.
The fingerprint is used only for identity verification. Neither the
fingerprint nor its features are ever physically transmitted nor ever
leave the device. The device wirelessly transmits only the
credentials necessary for authorization and access (i.e., a facility
entrance code, a password, or personal identity document).
The fingerprint features stored on the device cannot be retrieved
from the device.
The device releases the programmed authorization only after the
authorized user of the device applies an enrolled finger.
The device’s fingerprint sensor recognizes and rejects a fake finger
or other attempts to fool the device. These techniques rely on the
specific chemistry of the skin, which is not present in a fake finger.
The device is a cryptographic services provider and supports two-
way encrypted communications. Data can be encrypted on the
device before it is released so that only the intended recipient can
interpret the information.
