US supplier of biometric security solutions Fujitsu Frontech has launched the Fujitsu PalmSecure LT for SSO, a compact version of the company's palm vein recognition technology.

PalmSecure LT for SSO technology utilizes strong biometric authentication for single sign-on (SSO) access to provide customers in the healthcare, financial services, government and other industries with a logical access control solution.

The Fujitsu PalmSecure LT for SSO biometric technology aims to enable consumers, government agencies and private-sector organizations to replace traditional password structures with a single path of access that resides in the palms of users’ hands.

PalmSecure technology uses a near-infrared light to capture a user’s palm vein pattern, generating a unique biometric template that is matched against pre-registered users’ palm vein patterns. This vascular pattern recognition solution based on contactless authentication technology is non-intrusive and generates fast authentication.
