Latest Fingerprint Authentication Technology Supports both Windows Hello™ and Windows Hello™ for Business
San Mateo, CA – August 6, 2019 – Kensington®, the worldwide leader of desktop computing and mobility solutions for IT, business, and home office professionals and The Professionals’ Choice, revealed its latest enterprise-level biometric security solution that offers advanced Match-in-Sensor™ fingerprint technology. With support for Windows Hello™ and Windows Hello™ for Business, the VeriMark™ IT Fingerprint Key puts business-class security at your fingertips.
With a rise in large-scale information breaches, it’s important to have an easy, secure, and reliable way to protect data that is compatible with enterprise-level solutions. Ideal for enterprise deployment and easily integrated into current IT infrastructure, the VeriMark™ IT Fingerprint Key (K64704WW, SRP $59.99) supports Windows Hello™ and Windows Hello™ for Business, Azure, Active Directory, Office 365, Skype, OneDrive, and Outlook. FIDO2/WebAuthn compatibility enables the latest industry standard for fast and secure log in and automatic single-sign-on to Microsoft services on Edge.
Protected data is stored locally with Match-in-Sensor™ fingerprint technology, which combines superior biometric performance and 360° readability with anti-spoofing technology, while exceeding industry standards for False Rejection Rate (FRR 2%) and False Acceptance Rate (FAR 0.001%). This technology is superior to match-on-host, where unsecured fingerprint data is transferred to the host—with Match-in-Sensor™ technology, the fingerprint data is secured in the sensor, so only an encrypted match result is transferred to the host.
The robust design features a durable zinc alloy body with LED accepted/rejected indicator, and a flared tail for an easy grip. Supporting Windows 7, 8.1, and 10, the TAA-compliant VeriMark™ IT Fingerprint Key is ready for use in organizations requiring the highest level of biometric security, including government departments.
“With Windows Hello, businesses now have enterprise-grade security that is also easy to use,” said Pavan Li, Sr. Product Marketing Manager “Third party solutions such as Kensington’s VeriMark IT Fingerprint Key are ideal for companies that have not deployed laptops with built-in biometric capabilities, allowing them to enjoy the advantages of Windows Hello across the organization.”
Combining state-of-the-art fingerprint technology and compatibility with enterprise-level solutions, the VeriMark™ IT Fingerprint Key offers the same uncompromising security that has made Kensington The Professionals’ Choice™ for more than 25 years.
