SAN DIEGO, CA — (Marketwired) — 07/29/13 — ImageWare Systems, Inc. (OTCQB: IWSY), a leader in cloud-based, multi-modal biometric identity management solutions, has introduced its mobile biometric identity management platform, GoMobile Interactive (GMI).
Based upon acquired patented messaging platform technology combined with ImageWare-s patented Biometric Engine®, GMI allows global business, service and content providers to offer users biometric security for their products, services and content on the Android or iPhone operating systems. GMI includes a standalone application that can be used as a turnkey solution, as well as a software development kit, enabling integration with existing mobile applications for Android and iPhone.
“According to The Gartner Group, worldwide mobile payments will become a $400 billion market by 2015 and 67% of users cite they have -no trust that their bank details would be secure- with mobile payments,” said Jim Miller, chairman and CEO of ImageWare Systems. “GoMobile Interactive is designed to alleviate this risk in a simple, seamless manner by combining unique messaging capabilities with our proven biometric technology to provide unprecedented security for mobile smartphones.”
“However, according to the Federal Reserve,” continued Miller, “almost 40% of Americans have already used smart mobile devices for banking and purchases. This mission-critical data being accessed via mobile devices has created the need for multi-modal biometrics to become as ubiquitous as the smartphones used to access the data. Until now, storing, securing and accessing data has been a major challenge.”
Targeted verticals for the product include mobile banking and value transfer, retail, healthcare and entertainment services. By supporting multi-modal biometrics on a mobile device, ImageWare is able to offer an out-of-band security solution that is far superior to traditional password or PIN protection, which are now failing and costing businesses billions of dollars.
In addition, the GoMobile Interactive service supports dynamic information gathering, allowing clients to learn about their users through the use of interactive surveys that can be optionally secured using biometrics.
