BioLogon for Windows Desktop
=====================================================================
BioLogon for Windows Desktop is stand-alone software that provides
fingerprint authentication to local and networked resources that are
managed by Microsoft's NT security resource manager and Windows 2000
Active Directory.
Components
- BioLogon Desktop for local workstation logon and network logon to
Windows domain(s).
- Smart card support for multi-factor authentication.
- "Find All My Accounts" or "Find My First Account" searches all
BioLogon users for a fingerprint match eliminating the need for
typing a user name.
- BioShield to protect applications and automate repetitive tasks
within applications, like entering frequently visited web site
logon ID & password.
- Password Bank: Tie all existing passwords to a user's finger
template to reduce password overload.
- Application Locking: Protect any desktop function, command,
application with fingerprint verification.
- Action Accelerator: Create a custom script that will remember
your commands including text buttons and menu functions.
Portable Fingerprint Authentication Management
BioLogon for Windows Desktop enables users to enroll their
fingerprints on each computer that has a fingerprint reader attached
and then, using fingerprint authentication, logon to all available
Domain(s) in the network.
Stand-alone authentication
Authentication is performed locally on the non-networked laptop or
workstation. Your laptop is always protected - anytime, anywhere.
Network authentication to "Non-BioLogon" Windows Server
Authentication is performed locally on the client releasing the user's
password to the Windows Domain Controller. Changes to the network
server are not required to use a fingerprint for network logon.
Benefits
BioLogon for Windows Desktop offers:
- Choice: Stand-alone and network finger-based authentication.
- Simplicity: Complete "plug and play" security solution out of the
box.
- Consistency: Fingerprint logon to the network without requiring
changes to the Server.
- Security: Microsoft's Network Security Architecture (Windows NT)
and Active Directory

BioLogon for Windows Client/Server
=====================================================================
BioLogon for Windows Client/Server software provides fingerprint
authentication to centralized network resources that are managed by
BioLogon Server with Microsoft's NT security resource manager and
Windows 2000 Active Directory.
Components
- BioLogon Client for local logon and network logon through BioLogon
Server.
- BioLogon Server for centralized user administration and client/
server network logon.
- Flexible User License Manager and a license for five BioLogon
Server users. Evaluating BioLogon's client/server performance
requires little risk or significant investment.
- Smart card support with BioLogon Client and Server for multi-
factor authentication.
Centralize Network Management and Policies
BioLogon for Windows Client/Server enables users to enroll one time
and logon from any BioLogon Client in the Domain(s). BioLogon client/
server authentication performs user verification on BioLogon Server
through secure network transport.
Stand-alone authentication
Authentication is managed locally on a non-networked workstation.
Network authentication with BioLogon Server
Authentication is managed centrally on the domain.
Benefits
BioLogon for Windows Client/Server offers:
- Choice: Finger-based authentication for network and data access.
- Simplicity: Single point of administration for any biometric or
non-biometric account.
- Consistency: Company-wide security policy with Microsoft's Network
Security Architecture (Windows NT) and Active Directory Schema
(Windows 2000).
- Security: Completely integrated with Microsoft security offering
easy setup for strong authentication.
Server redundancy and load balancing - Supports multiple domain
controllers
BioLogon Server supports automatic load balancing and replication
of biometric credentials across domain controllers.
Lower password management cost
Administrative costs from forgotten passwords are reduced, keeping
network users productive. Eliminate passwords entirely to free user
from the burden of remembering passwords. Strengthen network security
and reduce password administration costs, keeping users productive,
and network access secure.
Local and remote server management
Local and remote user/workstation policy administration enables
enterprise-wide management from any location. BioLogon Server
simplifies security management, enables system-wide control and
centrally facilitates user authentication.
Encrypted network transactions for data security
All communications between the BioLogon workstation and domain
controllers are encrypted and transported through a secure
communication channel. The encryption protocol is based on PKI
technology and the generation of random session keys. Microsoft Crypto
API is used for all encryption operations with support for up to
128-bit encryption.
