WEB-Key provides both true security and personal privacy in e-commerce transactions. WEB-key 'true user identification’ means that you know who the user is-not just who they say they are, which is essential for remote user security. This level of security can only be achieved when data access is based entirely on an identity trait that can’t be transferred, lost, or stolen. A fingerprint has long been considered just such a trait. BIO-key International has pioneered the development of high performance, secure, one-to-many fingerprint identification technology that can be used without a password, PIN, smartcard, cached user ID or other identifying data.

WEB-key is packaged in an easy to use browser plug-in for Windows clients and Web server plug-in supporting COM and Java; creating a heightened level of security and user convenience for e-commerce and Web-based transaction applications. The enhanced security capabilities for identification as well as verification inherent in the WEB-key product come from its ability to perform highly secure user finger identification at the server not on the client. WEB-key’s use of session control and triple-encryption ensures an additional level of security in all communications across the networks.

Because WEB-key stores the fingerprint as a mathematical model, no fingerprint image is stored on the user’s machine or in a database. In addition, the proprietary mathematical model itself cannot be disassembled to reproduce the fingerprint, providing a level of personal privacy, security and fraud protection that is unattainable with traditional systems that employ passwords, PINs’ or smart cards. WEB-key is now available through evaluation and perpetual licenses.
