Japanese tech firm Fujitsu has revealed a new cloud-based biometrics solution aimed at identity management, particularly organisations facing increasingly complex data security risks.Called BIOaaS (Biometrics-as-a-Service), the company's new offering is a cloud-based biometrics engine that can match multiple biometric types. For instance, new products and sensors for existing biometrics can be added with no back-end changes being required.”The recent disclosure that 143 million customer records were stolen from Equifax is another reminder that even innovative organizations are struggling with cyber threats that are potentially staggering in scope,” says Jason Bradlee, Head of Security for Americas region, Fujitsu America.”Nevertheless, every organization has a duty to safeguard customer information. This duty covers all aspects of protection, from cyber security to identity security – meaning the verified identity of who has access to this information as devices and passwords can be shared”.
