Fingerprint Terminology and Solutions

1:1 Verification at SAVIOR Reader Level

Also known as 1:1 Authentication. Fingerprints are enrolled and stored on a Smart Card. Verification occurs by matching the live fingerprint against the template on the Smart Card. Models 8603, 8604, 8605, and GPRS-enabled 8703, 8704, 8705 support 1:1 Verification.

1:N Identification at SAVIOR Reader Level

Fingerprints are enrolled either at the reader or a computer station and transferred to a central database for deployment to other readers. Verification involves matching a live fingerprint against multiple templates stored in the reader. Models 8603, 8604, 8605, and GPRS-enabled 8703, 8704, 8705 support 1:N Identification.

1:1 Verification at SAVIOR Computer Application Level

Aids in identifying individuals (e.g., cashiers, storekeepers) without a card, preventing fraud. The operator selects an employee name, and the fingerprint is placed on the reader. Results are displayed on the computer screen. SAVIOR's Advanced 1:N Enrollment, Computer Level Identification & Template Deployment Software (AEID Software) facilitates this.

1:N Identification at SAVIOR Computer Application Level

Used to identify individuals registered under different names or to identify blacklisted users. Fingerprint templates are stored in a computer database and searched against existing templates. SAVIOR offers 1:5000 and 1:20,000 license options for 1:N identification, with search times varying by system specifications. AEID Software also supports this functionality.

Enrollment Options and Selection

Quality of Enrollment versus Requirement

The choice of enrollment process impacts the quality and coverage of verification and identification. Factors include the need for identity cards, the number of employees per reader, and desired security levels.

Coverage Comparison:

• 1:1 Enrollment at Reader Level: Offers 99.99% verification coverage when using Smart Card-based identity cards.
• 1:N Enrollment at Reader Level: Provides over 95% identification coverage for up to 500 users without Smart Cards.
• 1:N Enrollment using MSO 300 with Central Enrollment: Achieves over 99.5% identification coverage, not requiring Smart Cards for most users.

Advantages & Disadvantages of Enrollment Processes

SAVIOR offers flexibility in managing enrollment methods for employees, allowing shifts between 1:1, 1:N, or Smart Card only options.

FAQ (Frequently Asked Questions)

Q1. We have 20 locations across India with less than 50 employees and a factory with 2000 employees. What enrollment method should I use?

A1. For the 20 locations with <50 employees, use 1:N Enrollment at Reader Level. Transfer templates to the factory for centralized control and deployment. For the factory with 2000 employees, 1:N enrollment at Computer Level with MSO 300 is recommended.

Q2. One of the location is a construction site with no computer GPRS connectivity or Electricity. Can I record Attendance?

A2. Yes. Enroll users with 1:N Enrollment using USB Keyboard. Transfer data using a Pen Drive. Use a Metal Box with Battery backup and a solar panel for the reader.

Q3. Why can we not use 1:N Enrollment on Reader above 500 Users?

A3. 1:N identification relies on fingerprint differences. With more users, the probability of similar fingerprints increases. Reader-level sensors are smaller and capture fewer features than larger sensors like MSO 300, making them less effective for large user bases (>500).

Q4. Why should we transfer Fingerprint Template to a Central Database?

A4. Centralization allows flexible deployment to any reader. It also serves as a secondary backup, preventing the need for re-enrollment if a primary method fails.

Q5. I have used 1:N Enrollment on Reader but some Employees are not getting enrolled, what should I do?

A5. Consider 1:N Enrollment at Computer Level with MSO 300, or use 1:1 enrollment with Smart Cards, depending on the user's fingerprint quality.

Q6. The user has cut one or more of his fingers, What is the solution?

A6. SAVIOR readers enroll two fingers. If one is cut, the second can be used. If both are damaged, other acceptable fingers can be enrolled, or the system can be configured to accept attendance via Smart Card only.

Q7. Due to change of season or any other reason, the user's finger has no fingerprint as old skin has come out and new skin has not came. What is the solution?

A7. If fingerprint lines are visible to the eye, enrollment/identification is usually possible. This issue is typically temporary and affects only a few individuals.

Q8. The user's finger has Mehendi or Ink or Grease on the finger. What is the solution?

A8. Ensure the fingerprint lines are visible. Mehendi, grease, or ink should not dirty the sensor window. Damage, breakage, sabotage, or misuse of the sensor during warranty/AMC is not covered.
