Global Identity Management
FindBiometrics and Mobile ID World have spent the recent weeks focusing on new identity technologies in healthcare, and how biometrics can enhance patient ID, electronic health records, and even diagnosis. That focus on healthcare was in preparation for the 2020 HIMSS Conference in Orlando, which since the original publication of this podcast has been cancelled […]
So far, biometric technology has delivered transformative change in a few key sectors – in mobile tech, for example, where it’s now common to unlock a phone with a fingerprint or face scan; and in financial services, where biometrics are helping to secure accounts that are increasingly being accessed from customers’ personal devices. Now, healthcare […]
The rise of electronic health records (EHR) has been a game-changer in the healthcare sector. Part of the broader wave of digitization that has swept organizations across all kinds of areas, from financial services to government, the rise of EHR has helped to modernize healthcare administration. This, of course, has brought about new security threats. […]
Once considered discrete disciplines, biometrics and Artificial Intelligence are now more or less synonymous. The biometric technologies of today are AI-driven, often based on machine learning frameworks that enable biometric systems to refine their capability of detecting patterns in biological subjects. For the most part, such biometric technologies are being used to authenticate and identify […]
Biometric technologies have had an almost revolutionary impact in the diverse areas of smartphones, border control, and financial services in recent years. And the variety of these applications – from enabling true mobile banking to flagging security threats at the airport – have offered some indication of the versatility of biometrics, with these technologies continuously […]
On Wednesday, March 6, 2019 at 11 AM Eastern, Healthcare Biometrics Month came to an end with the expert webinar: ‘The Identity Revolution Comes to Healthcare.’ FindBiometrics and HIMSS presented an interactive discussion about biometrics and identity verification in the booming global healthcare market featuring an expert panel: Peter Counter, Managing Editor, FindBiometrics (moderator) Rod […]
With the mobile biometrics revolution now having been underway for about half a decade, it’s high time that a similar revolution should come to healthcare. And it is coming: Biometric technologies are starting to have a major impact on a range of areas in this sector, from EPCS to patient identification and even medical diagnosis. […]
It has taken a bit of time for the mobile revolution to really reach the healthcare sector in a substantial way, but if the solutions showcased at this year’s HIMSS offer any indication, it’s really happening now. And HID Global, in particular, is illustrating the various ways that cutting-edge mobile technology can offer transformative benefits […]
At its heart, healthcare has traditionally revolved around just a couple of basic practices: Looking for signs of illness in a patient, and listening to what the patient has to say about their symptoms. But these are by no means simple undertakings. A wide range of symptoms can be difficult to detect accurately, and can […]
HIMSS has released its 2019 Cybersecurity Survey, generally finding improved cybersecurity awareness among healthcare organizations. Healthcare providers are devoting more funding to IT and taking advantage of the growing number of healthcare-specific solutions like Nuance’s Dragon Medical Virtual Assistant or OneBio’s blockchain platform. However, the survey also highlighted some glaring flaws in healthcare security, many […]
