Introducing the Simplest Way to Use Biometric Authentication with BioSig-ID and the SPGateway

If you can swipe, you can securely authenticate

About 6 months ago, we connected with a software security company called Biometric Signature ID (BioSig-ID). They provide a simple solution to a hard problem — how to securely authenticate someone without complicated passwords, thumbprints, or retina scans.

Basically, they figured out that we all draw a little bit differently. For example, if you and I both draw “262018” – visually they might appear to be the same, but they’re not. I might draw it a little faster than you or I might have trouble with the 8, etc.

The secret is leveraging machine learning so the system can actively learn how I draw 262018 according to a variety of standards or metrics. If someone does try to copy me, the system can differentiate between me and anyone else by tracking how I draw.
Granted, this description is over-simplified, but you get the general idea. Here’s a link to their video going into more depth.
BioSig-ID works on all computing devices – laptop, desktop, tablet, and smartphone. It’s designed to be user friendly so that even a child can use it for logging in, but while the application of this technology is extensive, there are limitations — particularly when it comes to enabling Single Sign-On across an enterprise for large-scale commercial use. That’s where we come in. By leveraging ICSynergy’s SPGateway in combination with BioSig ID, we enable the enterprise app use case.

SPGateway Provides Fort Knox Security With Homer Simpson Simplicity

BioSig-ID and the SPGateway have a native integration with each other. This means that you can use these technologies to log in to your systems either as the only form of authentication or as part of an MFA solution.
After swiping, the SPGateway then translates that identity into an active session in any Web application, such as Oracle E-Business Suite, Microsoft Sharepoint, and other custom applications.
In order to achieve a strong security posture, we would recommend considering BioSig-ID configured with trusted device management and the SPGateway — creating a secure remote access system that would be almost as tough to break into as Fort Knox. We’ve made it simple.
