Biogy has developed a disruptive cybersecurity technology that protects a user’s identity and sensitive data on insecure devices such as the mobile phone, PCs, and the web browser.  Biogy technology also prevents the kind of identity theft that occurred in the March 2011 RSA breach.

Our identity system is comprised of a low-cost, biometric and cryptographic technology which can be integrated into flash drives, mobile phones, PCs and smart cards. All data is biometrically protected and can only be read after being unlocked with the owner’s fingerprint. Further, all data is protected by hardware encryption. The key is uniquely generated by the user’s fingerprint and is securely stored on the Biogy chip that performs the fingerprint authentication and other cryptographic protocols. Our system protects against some of the most common and devastating forms of cyber attacks, such as phishing, keystroke loggers and Stack/Runtime Analysis attacks.

Biogy is a leading developer of biometric and cryptographic embedded software solutions for mobile phones, smart cards and other low cost platforms. Biogy’s patented (7 issued, 9 pending) technology is used for identity authentication, securing electronic transactions, physical and data security. Biogy offers some of the most compact and versatile fingerprint access solutions available on the market today. Biogy’s proprietary fingerprint technology is ideally suited for products ranging from USB storage devices to mobile phones, along with many other consumer and enterprise products and applications. By lowering the cost and reducing time to market with its state-of-the-art turnkey solutions, Biogy leads the way to a new generation of products that have not previously been considered within the biometrics industry.

Biogy Unique Advantages:

A.) Biometric identity is locally encrypted and never leaves the Biogy secure module.

B.) Only a dynamic identity (extremely large number that reveals nothing about the user’s identity and changes every single time) leaves the Biogy secure module and travels across the Internet or wirelessly. This prevents identity theft.

C.) The dynamic identity is generated only by a valid fingerprint authentication and cryptographically bound to the user’s identity. No keys or passwords are stored on the device (e.g. mobile phone). They are generated by a valid fingerprint authentication and then vanish.

D.) Biogy is the only company in the world that has developed a biometric cybersecurity solution to address the three major cyberattacks:

1. Countermeasures to spoofing i.e. phishing attacks.
2. Countermeasures to I/O Sniffer attacks (keystroke & screen loggers).
3. Countermeasures to Stack / Runtime Analysis attacks.

Further, Biogy has the only identity management solution that can stop the untrusted browser attack which has already breached the security industry gold standard, RSA SecurID.

RSA SecurID Breach

Alex Williams at ReadWriteWeb writes:

“RSA had a major breach this week. Attackers stole information for 40 million two-factor authentication accounts.
That’s a huge breach. And the ones affected most may be IT administrators, who in turn, run the security for countless enterprise and cloud-based services in the public and private sector. The ramifications are considerable. This attack means that hundreds if not millions of people could be affected if IT administrator accounts Read more…
