The certification, also known as FIPS 201, was developed by the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) to make sure federal employees and contractors who have access to high-security facilities meet homeland security requirements.
“The PIV certification from the FBI assures our customers that the Nitgen eNBioScan-F meets some of the strictest standards for image quality and reliability across a full range of environments and applications,” said Ken Nosker, president of Fulcrum Biometrics.
“We are pleased to offer the eNBioScan-F and other scanners from Nitgen because they consistently demonstrate high quality at some of the lowest price points on the market.”
The eNBioScan-F scanner has a 1.2″ wide reader screen that is said to be able to glean fingerprints with a high degree of accuracy and detail, even when fingers are wet.
Available with a USB 2.0 connection, the eNBioScan comes with demo software and can be ordered with drivers for Windows.
