Fingerprint Cards AB (NASDAQ:FING B)

LOS GATOS, CA, UNITED STATES, February 5, 2025 /EINPresswire.com/ -- Los Gatos, USA, and Gothenburg, Sweden, 30 January 2025 – Fingerprint Cards AB (Fingerprints™), a world leader in biometric technology, has partnered with jNet Secure, a global authority in secure operating systems, to introduce a turnkey biometric System-in-Package (SiP) module that accelerates the deployment of biometric security and passwordless authentication solutions. This innovative solution empowers enterprises, system integrators, and USB token manufacturers to bring FIDO2-compliant authentication products to market faster and with minimal complexity.

The SiP module integrates Fingerprints' advanced biometric sensor with a high-performance CC EAL6+ Secure Element with USB/NFC interfaces and features jNet’s advanced JavaCard / GlobalPlatform runtime, enabling seamless multi-applets deployment.

Revolutionizing Security Across Industries

jNet Secure, with over 20 years of leadership in JavaCard/GlobalPlatform technologies, powers EMVCo, government ID, and crypto wallet solutions worldwide. The SiP module complies with FIDO Alliance and W3C standards and provides a robust, passwordless authentication alternative to traditional credentials by replacing passwords with secure, hardware-bound cryptographic key pairs. Engineering samples of the module will be available this summer, with mass production expected to begin in Q4 2025. The solution is designed to support a wide range of high-security applications, including:

· Enterprise and Cloud Authentication: Seamlessly securing workforce and customer access to critical applications.

· Biometric Passkeys (FIDO) Tokens: Delivering secure, frictionless passwordless authentication, achieving the goal of supporting FIDO CTAP2.2 in 2025

· Self-Sovereign Identity and Crypto Wallets: Enabling secure key storage, verifiable credentials (VC), and blockchain transaction signing all inside the SiP.

· Payment & Authentication: Supporting OpenPGP and secure financial transactions.

· Government ID (Gov-ID) Solutions: PIV, ensuring compliance with the highest security standards.


This solution promises to revolutionize the industry by simplifying the integration and accelerating time to market. It will enable product companies to seamlessly incorporate these features into their product lines.
