Biometric Progression

Biometric security measures become more sophisticated for corporate use

Implications - Biometric authentication is not only rapidly gaining a consumer following; the technology is also being continually refined to offer increased security for large-scale operations. Advancements in biometric technology, such as greater accuracy or multiple forms of scanning on a single platform, offer companies a multi-layered approach to threats and attacks, indicating that the future of corporate security will be more reliable and hack-proof.
Workshop Question - What emerging technology could be a game changer if adapted for your industry?
Trend Themes
1. Multi-layered Biometric Security - Companies are using multi-layered biometric security measures to prevent fraud and identity theft.
2. Advanced Biometric Verification Technology - Biometric technology is being refined for increased accuracy, using more forms of biometric identification such as facial, voice, and fingerprint recognition.
3. Invisible Fingerprint Scanners - Fingerprint scanners are being integrated in place of designated buttons, to allow for more space on mobile devices.
Industry Implications
1. Banking and Finance - The financial sector is implementing biometric technology for higher security and convenience in traditional banking systems.
2. Mobile Technology - Companies are developing biometric security measures for their mobile products to provide enhanced personal security features.
