London, 24 November 2014 – TechNavio, a tech-focused research firm has published a new report on the Biometrics Market in the APAC Region, which is expected to post a CAGR of 20.5 percent from 2015-2019.
The rise in the number of terrorist threats in the APAC region has increased the need for public safety. In response, governments have started providing e-passports to individuals to enhance security infrastructure, boost public safety, and prevent the loss of confidential data.
The latest report by TechNavio emphasizes the growing adoption of multimodal biometrics, which use more than one behavioral or physiological characteristic for the verification or identification of an individual. This helps improve the security features of the solution to a great extent.
“Multimodal biometrics help meet stringent security requirements and significantly increase accuracy of identification,” says Faisal Ghaus, Vice President of TechNavio.
With multimodal biometrics, a secondary means of enrolment and verification or identification is also possible in case inadequate data is taken from a given biometric sample.
“Airports have started collecting more fingerprint and iris information as part of national ID programs, and vendors offering multimodal biometrics in the APAC region have also increased considerably in order to meet demand.”
TechNavio currently has more than 3000 market research reports on a huge range of topics, including:
