SIGNATURE VERIFICATION
- Signature verification is the process used to recognize an individual’s hand-written signature.
- Dynamic signature verification technology uses the behavioral biometrics of a hand written signature to confirm the identity of a computer user. This is done by analyzing the shape, speed, stroke, pen pressure and timing information during the act of signing.
- As a replacement for a password or a PIN number, dynamic signature verification is a biometric technology that is used to positively identify a person from their handwritten signature.
- There will always be slight variations in a person’s handwritten signature, but the consistency created by natural motion and practice over time creates a recognizable pattern that makes the handwritten signature a natural for biometric identification.
- Signature verification is natural and intuitive. The technology is easy to explain and trust. The primary advantage that signature verification systems have over other types of biometric technologies is that signatures are already accepted as the common method of identity verification. This history of trust means that people are very willing to accept a signature based verification system.
- Dynamic signature verification technology uses the behavioral biometrics of a hand written signature to confirm the identity of a computer user. Unlike the older technologies of passwords and keycards – which are often shared or easily forgotten, lost, and stolen – dynamic signature verification provides a simple and natural method for increased computer security and trusted document authorization.
