Stefan Widing, President & CEOStefan Widing, President and CEO of HID Global, explains that every time a transaction or access is attempted online, a notification is sent through push technology to a consumer’s mobile device to ask him or her to approve the transaction or login attempt. “The user swipes right with his finger to accept it or swipes left to reject it,” Widing says. In a nutshell, HID Approve is a high-octane effort to help banks put the power of “simple and instantaneous authentication” into the hands of their consumers.
By amalgamating public key-based cryptography with the firm’s proprietary authentication infrastructure, ActivID— which leverages push technology to yield better user experiences—HID Approve enhances cybersecurity for digital banking transactions. The major differentiator for the mobile app is its robust security feature that is far more intuitive and user-friendly compared to conventional authentication methods. Banks can now rest assured since their customers’ private online bank account information is secure, preventing data theft during transactions.
When it comes to deploying the service, HID Approve with its white-label rebranding feature fits into the customer’s UI seamlessly, allowing the bank to add value by fine-tuning and including their unique functionalities to the product. A bank can easily customize HID Approve so that it is presented as the bank’s brand without the need to build and maintain a custom app.
HID Approve includes flexible policy customization, robust security and data analytics
HID Approve also comes along with a Software Development Kit that enables organizations to integrate it with other corporate applications. HID Approve brings trust to end-users. It displays all the transaction information so that the end-user is in full control of the transaction in a fully-secured environment.
In addition to HID Approve, the firm also offers a multitude of innovative identity management solutions that have been attracting many banks and financial institutions, including a recent ATM verification for a Brazilian bank. For instance, Lumidigm from HID Global is a multispectral imaging technology that can be tailored to provide superior biometric authentication. With high levels of real-time detection, spoof prevention in conjunction with tamper-proofing and data encryption, Lumidigm enhances data integrity by a large degree. On the other hand, HID Global’s Digital Certificate solution permits encryptions of e-mails and other online documents, promotes paperless sharing and signing of contracts, and eliminates the hassle of multiple passwords and tokens.
Along with the suite of identity management solutions that helps banks fortify their infrastructure and reduce fraud, HID Approve empowers consumers to protect their finances in a simplified way. Widing emphasizes that the recently launched HID Approve has been and will be a strong addition to HID Global’s identity management portfolio. The turnkey mobile app is all set to address most of the identity lifecycle and authentication management concerns and ensure that only the right people have the right access to the right data. For bank’s consumers, HID Approve is available for download at Google Play Store and Apple App Store. “It includes flexible policy customization, robust security and data analytics, which in my viewpoint will be a game-changer,” Widing concludes.

Impeccable Biometric Authentication Boosts Well-Being of Patients and Practices
AUSTIN - HID, the worldwide leader in trusted identity solutions, and CERTIFY Health, a provider of modernized solutions to optimize patient care and experience, today announced a new collaborative patient engagement and facial recognition offering designed to evolve healthcare operations and administer impactful, elevated patient service at every checkpoint.
This integrated biometric platform will make its debut at the Becker’s HIT Conference on October 3-6 in Chicago and will be showcased at HLTH 2023 (October 8-11 in Las Vegas) and CHIME23 (November 9-12 in Phoenix, AZ).
WHAT:
HID combines its leading U.ARE.U™ Camera Identification System featuring highly accurate facial recognition capabilities with CERTIFY Care – a state-of-the-art patient engagement platform currently in use across major healthcare organizations. Key functionalities include patient onboarding, biometric authentication, patient communications, digital forms, appointment scheduling and management, and payment collection.
WHY:
Webcams are not enough when it comes to reliable patient verification in healthcare today. The risk of misidentification is high – leading to potentially fatal results for patients and crippling repercussions across companies. HID’s U.ARE.U Camera Identification System fuses AI with multispectral imaging (MSI) technology and modern machine learning algorithms to accurately identify and authenticate individuals. The CERTIFY Care platform integrates the U.ARE.U Camera technologies to deliver accurate patient authentication and identification while facilitating an excellent end-to-end patient experience from intake to claims payout. It’s all anchored by the precision of face biometrics.
HOW:
In addition to faster time to revenue, this technology pairing benefits healthcare practices by enabling:
• Positive patient identification: Authenticate and verify patient identity before treatments to improve patient care and safety.
• Accurate medical records management and deduplication: Drive efficiencies by tying one face to one record to consolidate multiple files in existence due to human error, changes in name/address/email, absence of record standardization, lack of information, etc.
• Medical fraud prevention and investigation: Deliver irrefutable proof of presence when it comes to patient identification and verified eligibility of care.
• Touchless, hygienic authentication: Propel patient safety with high-performing facial recognition that’s swift, seamless and straightforward for both patients and practitioners.
Additional points of excellence afforded by the HID U.ARE.U Camera Identification System include:
• Top NIST Ranking for Face Matching Performance & Accuracy
• Ethically Trained with AI to Eliminate Matching Bias
• Exceptional ‘In-the-Wild’ Recognition (precise capture and authentication regardless of variances in lighting, backgrounds, pose, expression, etc.)
• Extraordinary Presentation Attack Detection Against Spoofs (PAD detects spoof attempts using 3D masks, high-quality photos or digital images to trick the system)
• Stellar Security & Privacy with On-Device (Edge) Biometric Processing
• Flexible, Customizable and Cost-Efficient Patient Engagement Upgrade
WHEN:
This solution will be on display at Becker’s HIT Conference on October 3-6 in Chicago where CERTIFY Health is a sponsor.
