Biometric fingerprint readers help food processors and other manufacturers control who has access to plant areas, machines, computers and the network. They allow users access based on a scan of their fingerprints.
Zvetco Biometrics said its new panel-mount version of its Verifi P4000 reader is hardwired for anti-theft protection and enables positive user authentication with single finger touch.
"It cannot be fooled by fingerprint copies, latent images, gummy fingers, or finger castings, and has built-in security measures that make it virtually impossible to hack," the company claimed.
It is enclosed in commercial-grade aluminum housing with a waterproof design. The unit is designed to withstand high volume use, heavy cleaning, and exposure to elements.
"Fingerprint scanners' unique ability to provide the strongest security in such a user friendly and convenient manner is driving biometric adoption in a range of new markets," said Zavi Cohen, the company's chief executive officer.
The Verifi P4000 Panel Mount is available immediately as a stand-alone fingerprint reader.
