Biometric authentication technology firm KeyLemon has announced the launch of a new client-server architecture that facilitates rapid development and deployment of face recognition on mobile devices.KeyLemon's new OASIS implementation aims to allow developers to build scalable, mobile centric, secure biometric authentication platforms.The architecture supports both Android and iOS client operating systems, with a backend for Linux and Windows that can be deployed on servers located on a customers premises, wrote KeyLemon in a statement.”The world is going mobile as smartphones and tablets continue to be used more and more for access to sensitive corporate data”, said Anthony Gioeli, VP of sales and marketing for KeyLemon. “Our OASIS architecture enables developers to quickly integrate biometrics to allow secure access to their applications regardless of the device being used”.KeyLemons approach to biometrics on mobile devices splits the tasks of biometric identification between two systems:”Specifically, the client library can be integrated into native mobile applications and provides a Graphical User Interface (GUI), manages access to the camera, handles image acquisition and processing, offers liveness detection, and communicates to the server via a secure, encrypted channel.”The server then does very rapid biometric authentication and sends the results back to the mobile application”.
