Many schools and further education establishments are now introducing biometrics in their libraries, and in registration, cashless catering and access systems.
BioStore is a central database which eliminates the need to maintain multiple biometric databases across the various different applications used in schools.
BioStore attaches a biometric identifier, such as fingerprint, palm print or iris, to a student record, so that a student seeking to use any service within the school can be identified. For example, a student wishing to register for a class, borrow a book from the library, or to have a meal in the school canteen, will have his identity checked by BioStore. Software for specific tasks such as these can be integrated without having to maintain a separate biometric database for each one. For a list of companies whose applications are already integrated with BioStore, see BioStore Partner Companies.
By investing in BioStore, schools reap the benefit of substantially cheaper, and more secure, identity data management. BioStore provides a single, high quality, biometric system, reducing maintenance costs, and eliminating the recurrent expenses involved in replacing cards, passwords and PIN numbers, which are all too often lost, stolen or 'shared'.
BioStore uses state of the art encryption technology. Each database is uniquely encrypted on a school-by-school basis which means data is secure and cannot be moved or shared by any other organisation.
