Friday 18 December 2009 16:00 CET | News

US computer, technology and IT consulting corporation IBM has teamed up with financial technology company Fujitsu Frontech North America to launch a joint security solution that integrates palm vein biometric technology from Fujitsu with IBM’s enterprise single sign on solution.

The new offering allows companies to enable their employees to scan their palms to verify their identities for access to critical business information. By integrating the palm vein technology with IBM’s single sign-on software, employees can securely access applications, files and websites with a single scan of their palm, thus eliminating the need to remember multiple passwords.

The solution combines Fujitsu’s PalmSecure LOGONDIRECTOR with IBM’s Tivoli Access Manager for Single Sign-On, providing organizations with an authentication solution for protecting data while also complying with HIPAA, Sarbanes Oxley, PCI DDS and other industry and federal regulations.
