Compaq & Biometrics: Totale Kontrolle angesagt-.-. --.- -.-. --.- -.-. --.- -.-. --.- -.-. --.- -.-. --.- digitale Micro/faschisten jedweder Couleur: Ab August wird die totale Überwachung der Netzwerk/unter/tanen durch Compaqs "Fingerprint Identification Technology" auch für kleine Repressions/budgets finanzierbar. Für unter 100 Dollar pro Workstation liefert Compaq einen "fingerprint reader", der Login/Passwörter ersetzt & die totale Kontrolle möglich macht. Neben Compaq noch in der unheil/igen Allianz, dem sogenannten "BioAPI Consortium", vertreten: Identicator Technology, IBM, Novell, Miros & natürlich Micro/soft. Weil: "Fingerprint Identification Technology dramatically improves the security of Microsoft Windows NT based networks" -.-.- --.- -.-.- --.- -.-.- --.- HOUSTON--(BUSINESS WIRE)--July 7, 1998-- Continuing to deliver the latest technologies that reduce the cost of managing information technology, Compaq Computer Corporation (NYSE:CPQ - news) today announced the Compaq Fingerprint Identification Technology -- the first affordable biometric security technology offering. This state-of-the-art security product, compatible with Compaq Deskpro, Armada PCs, and Professional Workstations, tightens network security, simplifies the login process and reduces the costs associated with managing large corporate networks. The Fingerprint Identification Technology is available now in limited quantities for testing and evaluation. The product is expected to ship worldwide in August and be priced at $99(1) per node. ... Compaq has also taken a leadership role in driving the industry to standardize on biometric technologies. In April, Compaq formed the BioAPI Consortium with Identicator Technology, IBM, Microsoft, Novell and Miros. The goal of the consortium is to establish industry standards for biometric-oriented Application Programming Interfaces (APIs) and to incorporate these standards into operating systems. Industry standards will help ensure compatibility and interchangeability of biometric hardware and software products. ... Fingerprint Identification Technology dramatically improves the security of Microsoft Windows NT based networks by effectively replacing passwords with unique fingerprints. Passwords represent potential security risks because they can be duplicated or stolen, and are frequently posted on a sticky note attached to a PC monitor. Although tighter security usually means more work for administrators, Compaq Fingerprint Identification Technology also reduces network management costs. IT groups regularly report that up to 50 percent of help desk calls are forgotten or expired passwords. By virtually eliminating the need for passwords, Fingerprint Identification Technology reduces the number of calls to IT Help Desks and lowers network administration costs. ... Fingerprint Identification Technology, jointly developed by Compaq and Identicator Technology, uses Identicator's innovative DFR-200 reader technology and its outstanding and proven software algorithm technologies. Identicator's software has already been successfully implemented by a large number of its customers, ensuring that this technology is stable and proven. ... The very small Fingerprint Reader can be mounted on the side of a monitor or Deskpro, freeing up valuable desktop space. It is also compatible with and complementary to all Smart Card-based security products. The Fingerprint Reader easily connects to the parallel port and either the mouse or keyboard port via a power pass-through cable. relayed by jericho@dimensional.com. tnx -.-.- --.- -.-.- --.- -.-.- --.- TIP Download free PGP 5.5.3i (Win95/NT & Mac) http://keyserver.ad.or.at/pgp/download/ -.-.- --.- -.-.- --.- -.-.- --.- - -.-. --.- -.-. --.- -.-. --.- -.-. --.- -.-. --.- -.-. --.- edited by published on: 1998-07-12 comments to office@quintessenz.at subscribe Newsletter - -.-. --.- -.-. --.- -.-. --.- -.-. --.- -.-. --.- -.-. --.-
