IntroductionIntroduction

Introduction

DIGIgarde PLUS is a combined fingerprint and card reader with integral backlit

keypad providing PIN, Mifare card and fingerprint authentication modes in an

attractive and cost-effective unit. With a high-resolution optical sensor and a fast

matching algorithm it is suitable for the control of ‘high traffic’ access points.

DIGIgarde PLUS units can also be used as Time & Attendance “clocking” stations.

Operates stand-alone or in conjunction with Access Controller.

Use the reader to control the door or alternatively integrate it into a full access

control system providing real-time event monitoring and central system

programming & T&A - Use the T&A functionality of the reader to allow users to

clock-in and clock out

1, 2 or 3 factor authentication

Gives you the flexibility to choose the level of security that matches your needs

Built in Mifare ™ Card reader

Allows storage of the fingerprint template on a smart card. Use the card for

other applications

You can enrol up to ten different fingerprints with each user ID.

When registering users, you should ideally enrol every finger and thumb. This

avoids problems with users forgetting which finger has been enrolled or being

unable to gain access because of any injury to the enrolled finger. At least two

fingerprints should be enrolled, left and right index fingers, for example, to provide

users with a ‘backup’.

erification

Verification is the process of assessing the identity of a user attempting to gain

access through the DIGIgarde PLUS. This may involve checking some or all of the

following: user ID, fingerprint, password (or PIN) or smart card.

1:1 and 1:N f

ingerprint verification

There are two basic types of fingerprint verification:

If the user is required to enter their ID, then the DIGIgarde PLUS is only

required to match the scanned fingerprint against the template registered under

the User’s ID. This is called 1:1 verification.

If a user is not required to input their ID, the DIGIgarde PLUS must then match

the scanned fingerprint against all the templates in its database. This is termed

1:N verification.

The verification process may also involve checks of an input password. DIGIgarde

PLUS shows whether the user has been identified successfully and stores the

result in its internal memory.

The quality of scanned fingerprints can be variable. This opens up the possibility of

two types of verification failure:

Valid users are rejected. This is called False Rejection. The False Rejection

Rate (FRR) is the probability that DIGIgarde PLUS will fail to identify an enrolled

user, or verify their legitimate identity.

An imposter is mistakenly accepted because of the similarity of their fingerprint

to that of a registered user. This is termed False Acceptance. The False

Acceptance Rate (FAR) is the probability that DIGIgarde PLUS will incorrectly

verify an individual or will fail to reject an impostor.

To minimize these effects, DIGIgarde PLUS uses a Threshold value to establish a

balance between False Acceptance and False Rejection. A high threshold value

reduces the chances of false acceptance but increase the probability of false

rejection. The default Threshold value is 35 for 1:N matching and 15 for 1:1

matching. Clearly, the chance of a false acceptance is much less when a user ID is

required since the DIGIgarde PLUS is only comparing the scanned fingerprint with

one template.

The threshold can be set for all users. Raising the threshold increases security,

while lowering it increases pass rate.

For a user whose fingerprint verification is difficult, you can either reduce the

threshold or adopt ID & Fingerprint verification (1:1 verification) – see page 45.

During enrolment, DIGIgarde PLUS assigns a User ID Number to each user. This

ID can be used to call up the fingerprint template (1:1 verification) and/or password

each time that verification is requested.

A user can enter their ID number using the keypad or it can be called up from an

RF Card or Mifare Card.

The quality of the fingerprint verification process depends on the ability of the user

to correctly position their finger on the scanning window. The finger should be

placed centrally and flat and not be moved during the 2-3 seconds of the scan.

guidelines

When enrolling, we recommend you enrol users with their left or right index or

middle finger. Check the fingers for any injuries or wear.

If the user’s fingers are small, it may be preferable to use a thumbprint.

Few people’s fingerprint quality is too poor to verify but in difficult cases it is

advisable to use an ID & fingerprint verification method with the threshold reduced
