IDKEY leverages 3D Surface Scan Ultrasound Technology to secure your passwords
Sonavation has launched the IDKEY biometric security key product line which aims to be the most complete FIDO Ready U2F/UAF solution for multi-factor authentication that securely protects logical and physical access to online systems, documents, files and facilities. IDKEY uses 3D biometric ultrasound surface scan technology, which provides the most in-depth scan of a user's biometric fingerprint, creating a unique identifier for each user that is virtually unspoofable.
"The current state of passwords is broken," said Bob Stewart, COO, Sonavation. "Today, a hacker's biggest opportunity is through the digital front door, which is often left open due to poor password security. We've seen multiple instances of this in the past few months alone – from the iCloud disaster to the recent Sony hack. The best approach to locking this door is with biometric technology. As our fingerprint scanning technology is the most well-developed and sound biometric approach, with IDKEY, we're committed to giving consumers and businesses the most secure environment possible."
"As a founding member of the FIDO Alliance, we know that that secure authentication is a critical step to solving the pain point of password insecurity," said Stewart. "FIDO standards of multi-factor authentication are the future of digital security and access. With IDKEY, users can own the most advanced FIDO-compliant technology designed to keep their online identities in their own hands."
According to their website, FIDO Alliance is "a 501(c)6 non-profit organization nominally formed in July 2012 to address the lack of interoperability among strong authentication devices as well as the problems users face with creating and remembering multiple usernames and passwords. The FIDO Alliance plans to change the nature of authentication by developing specifications that define an open, scalable, interoperable set of mechanisms that supplant reliance on passwords to securely authenticate users of online services. This new standard for security devices and browser plugins will allow any website or cloud application to interface with a broad variety of existing and future FIDO-enabled devices that the user has for online security"
