Suprema is pleased to announce that the company has secured the national ID issuance project in Jordan. The project, steered by the Ministry of Information and Communications Technology (MoICT) through OFFTEC, is aimed at developing an ID verification system to be used during national ID issuance for the fingerprint verification of recipients. Suprema has completed the delivery of the BioMini Slim readers that will be deployed across the country. The deployment of scanners will ensure the protection of personal information by preventing false issuance of identification.

BioMini Slim is a FBI PIV and Mobile ID FAP 20 certified USB Fingerprint Scanner that features Suprema’s live finger detection technology. It is designed to provide a high level security solution for identity access management solutions for authentication. With IP65 grade dust and waterproof form factor, BioMini Slim features a sleek ergonomic design with the latest 500dpi slim optical sensor. The live finger detection technology analyzes image patterns according to optical characteristics and distinguishes fake fingers made from materials such as rubber, silicon, and glue.

“We are very pleased to offer our biometric solution to the population of Jordan.” Said Bogun Park, Director of ID Sector. “BioMini Slim’s live finger detection technology and long list of features will provide the security and versatility that is needed to make it an effective solution for its needs.”

The scanners will be integrated with MoICT’s internal systems by Gemalto using the BioMini SDK that is available in Windows, Linux and Android format.
