Specializes in tear drop analysis

Biometrics authentification for

entrance access. Our objective is

to provide a tighter security

system, so as to ensure identity

theft will not be possible.


Aviation Communication Limited (AVCOM)

AVCOM is a privately owned Caymanian registered company in operation for

over 31 years. It is a relatively small organization with 10 employees ranging

from directors to technical staff. It is the largest provider of Two-Way Radio

service in Cayman Islands. AVCOM is the only company involved in airport

aviation so there is not much competition from the communication market.

AVCOM uses the ISONAS security system. This is a control panel free IP-to

–the -opening access control system. The system uses a key fob which is a type

of security token: a small hardware device with built-in authentication

mechanisms.

The red dot indicates that the system is activated

The Internet Protocol (IP) is the method or protocol by which data is sent from one computer to another on the Internet. ISONAS IP is protected by Firewall


The problem that I found with the ISONAS system is one that could be easily

remedied. The system is indeed secure but if carefully planned it could be

breached.

It is not possible to enter a secured building without a card but it is easy to use

another person’s card to enter the building as there is no other form of

verification. Let’s look at this scenario:

If an employee should lose his/her ISONAS card and someone else finds it

they can easily use it to enter the building to do whatever they want.

The only way the system could be breached is if an employee lost his/her key

fob. This may seem like a small matter but it could lead to dire consequences.


This is my reason for introducing the biometric system to AVCOM . If the system used by AVCOM is modified to a dual system it would be much more secured, because if an employee should lose their card; even if someone else tries to use it the second system would also have to be cleared.

It would be best to use a dual system that cannot be forged. As various body parts are being used in the barometric system as means of authentication, coupled with ISONAS this would make the system even more secure. The finger print has already being established with ISONAS but research has proven that finger prints can be lifted.

The name biometric, suggest some element of the body is being used. In this case the teas of an employee will be used to verify authentication.

Avery unique body fluid could be used as everyone’s chemistry is different. In this case the teas of an employee will be used to verify authentication. It is virtually impossible for anyone to acquire a tear sample from another person unless it is given directly to them.


Technology is on the increase and so is the expertise of the criminal mind that

will have no difficulty lifting a finger print. In the business world the majority of

customers are somewhat satisfied with their security system; but they are still

seeking avenues to gain tighter security.

Our product is designed to give peace of mind to our customers knowing that

your security system will not be violated.

The Lacrimal Biometric system can be easily integrated into any security system making it into device to suite your specific needs
