SIGNificant Biometric Server

Many companies today automate their business processes and document workflow
procedures, leaving the approval stage as the only element which requires the use
of paper in order to capture a handwritten signature. The SIGNificant Suite, including
the Biometric Server, helps introduce your company to the era of electronic signing.
The SIGNificant Online Client and SIGNificant Offline Client record the handwritten
signature of a person (by parameters of pressure, acceleration, speed, rhythm and
movements in the air) and embed the signature into the electronic document.  The SIGNificant Biometric Server allows for the possibility to perform a real-time biometric verification of a person’s signature to the SIGNificant platform by comparing the recorded parameters of his handwritten signatures against his pre-enrolled profile.

Benefits

• Reduces Fraud – by enabling dynamic verification of the handwritten signature against a pre-defined biometric profile.
• High Reliability – based on the fact that two signatures can never be the same. The SIGNificant Biometric Server has been evaluated by a number of leading graphologists and forensic experts that found it to have equal or even improved abilities of proving the authenticity of a signature written on paper.
• Seamless Integration – using an extensive API that allows biometric authentications and enrollment of profiles to be an integrated part of any legacy application.
• Dynamic – has the ability to adjust dynamically to all future, inherent changes in the person’s signature. As the Biometric Server tracks each person's natural fluctuations over time, the profile continues to learn and remains updated and reliable over time.
• Built for Speed – accelerates work processes, raises productivity and efficiency within existing procedures. Using the SIGNificant Biometric Server, the electronic document cycle will no longer be broken solely for the purpose of capturing and authenticating a signature.
• Easy Management – the signature profile database is easily managed, enabling the administrator to perform a series of operations for each profile including suspending, resetting or deleting the profile.
• Paper Free Process – you will save money, time and trees by making your office 100% paperless!
• User Friendly – includes an intuitive graphical user interface for enrolling.
• Small Sized Profile Files – the Personal Profiles require only a few hundred bytes of storage space regardless of the signature size and complexity.
• High Accuracy Level – by capturing all hand movements to guarantee the highest level of accuracy and flexibility. A very accurate personal profile for authentication is created over time when a series of signatures are accumulated for an individual.

Features 

• Distinctive Signature Aspects – the system utilizes distinctive aspects of the handwritten signature such as rhythm, speed, pressure, acceleration and movement by measuring the physical activity of signing.
• Hardware Independent – supports multiple capturing devices and manufacturers (tablet, TabletPC, PDA, Electronic Pen, etc.).
• Non Reversible Transformation – signatures are never stored as bitmaps, making reverse engineering very difficult.
• Automatic Detection of Variations – the server does not use a constant test for all signers, since some users sign in a very consistent way, whereas others sign with a greater discrepancy between signatures. The server automatically detects these variations and builds the personal profile as secure as possible.
• Versatile Threshold Factor – enabling a varying authentication process for different environments, allowing organizations to easily adjust the balance between customer acceptance and security.
• Clear & Fast Verification Results – the verification is performed in a transparent manner. The server compares the signature to the updated personal profile in the database and enables or rejects the entry within milliseconds.
• Constant Profile Enriching – a dynamic mechanism recognizes the fluctuation rate in each of the signature parameters in real time, thus nourishing the authentication engine with added parameters and enhancing the profile every time a signature is profiled.
