idSoftware Identification Management Systems

Identity management is a challenging administrative task. If you are responsible for controlling access by confirming user rights and enforcing restrictions through positive identification, idSoftware has the latest products and services to make entry and exit run more efficiently. With the growing threats to every infrastructure across the United States, identification management systems must be constantly upgraded to ensure the highest levels of security. At the most basic level, our systems keep you accurately informed as to the who, where and when of all digital identities.

The first rule of responsible identification management is to provide the physical and digital resources needed to accomplish each task in the most cost-effective and time-efficient manner. At idSoftware, our systems, products, applications and platforms are installed and implemented to meet your specific needs for FBI, DHS and TSA compliance. Biometrics also has been incredibly useful to law enforcement and intelligence communities, including the FBI. Our products increase security and productivity, while controlling cost by decreasing repetitive tasks across numerous boundaries. With the latest advancements in technology, the quality and range of all agencies' identity management and investigative capabilities continue to grow.

With the Department of Homeland Security having recently enacted stricter security regulations, all incoming port personnel must scan identification cards through an electronic reader. After a three-month process, DHS approved idSoftware's multiple testing labs and placed the company on its Qualified Technology List (TCL) of approved companies who develop port security technology. Our SecureGate technology uses the latest biometrics to authorize a person's identity before entry and our VisCheck track all the people in a facility whether they entered using a Transportation Worker Identification Credential (or TWIC® card) or not.

Until the recent security changes were implemented in August 2016, security officials would give a TWIC® card a cursory glance to check the card's holograms, expiration date and photo ID. To further slow the process of moving people through the gate, guards were challenged with manually checking to ensure a card was not on the Transportation Security Administration's (TSA) canceled card list. This was cumbersome and time consuming as all people entering port facilities by foot, road or sea are required to present a current TWIC® card at their point of entry.

idSoftware's comprehensive identification management systems allow a TWIC® card to be tapped onto a reader and electronic authorization is immediately obtained before the person is granted port entry. Additionally, all vehicle operators must scan their thumbprint or fingerprint. The scan is then matched using fingerprint verification software that accesses thumbprints stored on multiple databases. Our SecureGate biometric identification system can be used both on and off line. As of August 2018, current regulations will become more stringent requiring fingerprint identification at the lowest levels.
