A Biometrics based Authentication Server Development
 
 
The customer
A Security Software company in network and protocol security. The company’s credo is to create new technologies that provide enhanced security and authentication while working with current hardware and network protocol configurations. The company’s unique offering being introduced in the market was a mobile bio-token for biometric authentication.
 
The challenge

Its flagship product uses three factor authentication that uses a person's biometric data to truly authenticate their identity. The customer helps organizations solve the problems associated with ongoing system authentication. They enable mobile digital identities to be used in many different situations where users, systems or processes interact. The customer wanted to develop a robust and scalable Authentication Server that would support their Biometric Services based authentication over LDAP protocol. Wipro catered to the customer’s needs by designing and developing an Authentication Server with the Digital Certificate Transfer Protocol (DCTP).

 
The solution
The development project was executed from offshore and Wipro team was responsible for the design, development, testing and delivery of the solution, which included:
Implementation of a proprietary protocol for user certificates download
Development of a common proxy to handle HTTP, SMTP, IMAP, POP3 protocols for secure email and web transactions

Integration of Authentication Server with existing directories containing standard user profiles

Development of an Administration Module for user management, bio-token management and proxy-rule management
Development of an Enrollment module for self registration of users, BioToken initialization and BioToken authentication
Development of a module for enabling desktop authentication based on BioToken
 
The benefits
Wipro’s security domain expertise translated into quick turn around times for client
Reduced development cycle meant customer being able to launch the product swiftly and gain the first mover advantage
Increased market acceptability through integration with other popular products in the market
