REDWOOD CITY, Calif. — DigitalPersona Inc., the leading provider of fingerprint authentication solutions for enterprise networks and commercial applications, announced the availability of DigitalPersona Pro 4.1 for Active Directory.
The new solution extends the security and convenience of DigitalPersona's authentication solution to users who require secure remote access using Citrix and Microsoft Terminal Services from wherever they connect to their corporate network. DigitalPersona Pro 4.1 comes with a new version of Pro Kiosk for faster fingerprint recognition at high-traffic, multiuser stations most common in healthcare and retail organizations.
"DigitalPersona Pro 4.1 Secure Sign-On enables fast and highly-scalable authentication for increased enterprise network security and productivity," said Amr Assal, senior product marketing manager at DigitalPersona. "With the added support for Citrix clients and Microsoft Terminal Services, DigitalPersona is extending the reach of its solution to include authorized remote access authenticated at the Citrix server or at a remote desktop."
The DigitalPersona Pro product line provides an out-of-the-box user experience with centralized management that enables enterprises to define, enforce and audit policies. Pro 4.1 and the new Pro Kiosk also provide biometrics-enabled notebooks, including models from Dell, HP, IBM/Lenovo, Toshiba, and Fujitsu. Tests performed by DigitalPersona have shown that Pro maintains a similar level of exceptional accuracy and performance on notebooks with embedded readers.
