A logical solution for cyber solutions

March 2019 Information Security, Access Control & Identity Management, Products & Solutions

BioMini Slim 2 is a thin, FBI PIV and FBI Mobile ID certified FAP20 optical scanner with a large platen for easy capturing of fingerprints.

In the logical access security realm, BioMini Slim 2 can be integrated into cybersecurity solutions to get rid of passwords and deliver secure biometric access to IT systems in various environments to ensure data safety. What’s more, the device’s small footprint provides improved portability for mobile use and its IP65-rated waterproof structure allows for robust operation in most environmental conditions.

Designed for easy integration into new and existing systems, the BioMini Slim 2 SDK features cross-platform compatibility for Android, Windows and Linux, and features a multi-threaded code design for multi-core CPU utilisation.

This high-quality scanner provides advanced Live Finger Detection (LFD) technology that distinguishes fake fingerprints made from various materials including clay, rubber, silicon, glue, paper, film and more. LFD is essential to curb the most elementary fraud, being the use of falsified fingerprints.

The Slim 2 also features Suprema’s proprietary MDR technology that enables the scanner to acquire fingerprints regardless of external light or fingerprint conditions, even under 100,000 LUX direct light, which is equivalent to direct sunlight, making this the ideal fingerprint reader for logging in just about anywhere.

Major international game-players that have integrated BioMini Slim 2 into their solutions include Citrix, IdentaZone, M2SYS and top international hardware providers such as BioRugged and Taztag.

Local software engineering support gives our clients the ability to fast track development and shorten the time-to-market. We offer our knowledge in biometric implementations, gained from 22 years’ African experience, to solution providers, taking solutions from concept to implementation in the shortest possible time while adhering to best practices.
