  • Patent number: 8842888
    Abstract: A mobile device is able to capture a plurality of different biometric identifiers of a subject. The mobile device displays a user interface on a screen of the device to guide the user in the capture of valid biometric identifiers. The user interface includes several different displays configured to guide users through the capture process to improve the chance that the user will capture valid biometric identifiers. The user interface includes displays for iris image capture, face image capture, voice capture, and fingerprint capture. The displays streamline the capture process, decreasing the overall knowledge and time required of the user to capture valid biometric identifiers. This also decreases the risk to the user in hostile environments. The device also processes the captured biometric identifiers to determine if they are valid, and updates the display of the user interface accordingly.

  • Publication number: 20080098478
    Abstract: A system, method and computer program product for administering trust dependent functional control over a portable endpoint security device (PEPS). A reconnoitering application in conjunction with a trust enforcement policy determines a relative trusted state of the host processing unit and administers trust dependent functional control over the PEPS in dependence on one or more trust dependent characteristics reconnoitered from the host processing unit. The trust dependent characteristics reconnoitered from the host processing unit may be location dependent, context dependent, hardware configuration dependent and logical state dependent.
