Who has access to your terminal? Does the driver card really belong to the person using it? There is increasing concern for terminals to ensure the identity of transport drivers using their facilities. To address this need, Toptech has developed a fingerprint verification system called veriFID.
Now security can be both convenient and reliable. Most terminals already use driver cards and PIN’s to identify drivers. This technology, however, only validates that the card is presented, not who is presenting it. PIN’s can be lost, loaned to someone, or stolen. With veriFID, you establish a person’s identity rather than relying on what they know or what they have.
Applications
- Access Control
- Biometric Security
Usage
A driver inserts his or her card into the RCU, and rather than entering a PIN code (ATM Style), the driver is prompted by the RCU to place their finger/thumb on the veriFID. The veriFID matches the driver fingerprint to a template stored in TMS6 and allows the continuation of the loading process. If the person inserting the card is not the authorized driver, then the driver/card will be locked out. Additionally, TMS6 can raise alarms or page/e-mail appropriate personnel with this information. veriFID is easy to install and utilizes existing RCU wiring.
Design
veriFID is mounted on a rugged enclosure, and is designed for driver/operator interface at gates, loading bays, or any other location where security is a concern. Installing veriFID is very simple and straightforward.
