ABSTRACT:
Transaction Security, Inc., a leading developer of
productivity software solutions, today announced the official release of its PDA-Protect™
biometric software. The first product based on the company’s patent-pending Crypto-Sign
technology, PDA-Protect provides biometric access control to Personal Digital Assistants (PDAs)
-- including Windows Powered Pocket PC devices with phone and wireless capabilities -- without
additional hardware requirements.
Unlike other methods, Crypto-Sign is based on the submission of a secret sign – rather than a
human signature -- on a PDA, Tablet PC or digitizer. The position of the user’s stylus is sampled
many times a second as it moves over the surface to generate data which are analyzed and
compared with a previously established template. For device access control, Crypto-Sign can be
used to release electronic signatures to documents for proof of authorship and to generate
encryption keys.
