SECURITY
According to VeriTran, data security and identity protection are the main requirements that a user seeks when trusting confidential information to different institutions, even more so when it comes to financial organizations, due to the sensitivity of the data that they are handled in these cases.
These needs can be solved through the implementation of authentication technologies such as biometrics, which allows the user to access their sessions and information by registering their voice, fingerprints or iris, ensuring that the person really is who they say they are.
“The implementation of these biometric solutions in banking provides benefits such as fraud prevention and identity theft in financial services, where the most sensitive personal information is managed.
