Johnson Controls has announced the release of the Innometriks Cheetah SE Bio High Assurance Smart Card Reader with fingerprint biometric matching.The Innometriks Cheetah SE Bio High Assurance Smart Card Reader’s advanced system and seamless architecture allow for efficient integration with a range of physical access control systems (PACS) with its secure and open-based OSDP protocol. With this update, enrollments are captured and stored in a central database and matched via OSDP or stored directly on a smartcard.
When an individual touches a biometric sensor at an access point, the biometric fingerprint image will be captured and compared against the reference template for secure and fast matching. This event is then communicated to the physical access control systems (PACS) to grant the individual instant and authorised access to the requested location.
The Innometriks Cheetah SE Bio High Assurance Smart Card Reader offers a low cost, highly secure biometric reader solution that meets implementation paths for Federal Government agencies and non-governmental organisations with guidelines for the incremental rollout of Personal Identification Verification (PIV) enabled access points.
The Innometriks Cheetah SE Bio supports Software House RM Reader functionality for new and existing installations as well as the industry standard SIA OSDP protocol. Easy to deploy, as well as flexible in design, the biometrics smart card reader provides tiered authentication levels and the ability to read FIPS-201 based credentials (PIV, PIV-1, CIV, CAC, TWIC). Innometriks Cheetah SE Bio reader also supports commercial industry 13.56 MHz smart cards such as MIFARE, iCLASS, DESFire and DESFire EV1/EV2.
