Key features and benefits of NEC’s Digital Identity solutions

NEC is a global company and a trusted provider of proven scalable biometric solutions. We invest heavily in research and have years of experience with national scale Digital Identity services, and securing airports and international borders using biometrics.

Enables organisations to develop new services
Biometrics solutions for Digital Identity enable organisations to develop new services and customer friendly applications for identification and verification through fast and accurate identification and verification which enables organisations and customers to balance the need for convenience with the need for security.

Reach new markets, automate business processes and acquire new customers
Biometrics solutions for Digital Identity make it easy and cheap for organisations to extend their digital presence and reach new markets, automate business processes and acquire new customers. Our Digital Identity solution enables organisations to move from traditional face-to-face contact to online channels. You can also save costs on entering new markets by reducing the need for human intervention, reducing customer acquisition costs.

Easy to implement and integrate into applications
Face recognition is the preferred biometric technology because it is easy to implement and integrate into applications. Our Digital Identity solution encourages faster time to revenue, accelerating business growth by radically decreasing the time it takes to acquire and on-board customers.

Contactless, convenient, fast and accurate
Face recognition is contactless, convenient, fast and accurate. This can lead to increased customer conversion rates as fewer customers ‘drop out’.

NEC has deployed its identification systems to over 1,000 customers in more than 30 countries.

Our expertise in unified communications and systems integration enables us to be one of the few companies that can supply all levels of integrated security solutions — from hardware and networking to applications and service.

NEC’s face recognition software is independently recognised as the fastest and most accurate on the global market. NEC was ranked #1 in three consecutive face recognition annual benchmark tests conducted by the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST), greatly exceeding all other vendors in both accuracy and speed. This technology is used at many international airports for border protection, capturing millions of people every day.

Seamless Travel with Digital ID

What if you didn’t have to carry cash, credit cards or a passport when you travel? What if checking in for a flight or checking out at your favorite store was as simple as taking a selfie? What if there was one technology that could make your hotel, banking and entertainment experiences safe and simple?

It sounds too good to be true, yet that’s what NEC’s Digital ID promises to deliver in the future.

– TOP REASONS

Why should you use Digital Identity?

There are many reasons why our customers turn to Digital Identity as a security solution. Here are some of the main reasons to talk to us about Digital ID today:

Face recognition has been in use for many years in law enforcement and border control. The performance of the underlying technologies is improving all the time and is increasingly available on mobile devices and is being implemented in a number of applications like mobile banking.

Organisations are using these technologies to integrate biometrics capabilities into a range of business processes and applications that improve customer experience, reduce costs and increase market reach. For example, face recognition is increasingly being seen by industry analysts as the password of the future. Its use on smartphones is becoming widespread as it is easy to use and is being widely adopted by consumers.

The financial services sector is increasing investments to integrate face recognition identification and verification capabilities into core business processes including customer onboarding, as well as risk and compliance processes including Know Your Customer (KYC) and Anti-money laundering (AML). Face recognition makes fraudulent personalisation extremely difficult and is increasingly being used to prevent identity theft and fraud.

Face biometrics used in Digital Identity is the preferred biometric benchmark because it’s easy to deploy and implement. There is no physical interaction required by the end user and face recognition for identification and verification is very fast and very accurate.

Organisations are using face recognition to create secure digital identities and ensure a healthy balance between security and convenience – the organisation has to trust the customer and the customer has to trust the organisation.
