Integrated Biometrics, designer and manufacturer of high performance mobile biometric fingerprint sensors, announced today that its “Columbo” FBI-certified FAP 30 single-digit fingerprint scanner now plays a key role in securing US cargo facilities.
The United States Coast Guard purchased 250 of the Columbo-equipped “MozaicID” handheld devices from Parroco Security Integration Group (“P-SIG”) and has deployed them at ports to conduct verification of the Transportation Worker Identification Credential (TWIC) system, which was put in place to prevent terrorist attacks at container cargo facilities by establishing and biometrically verifying the identity of all employees with access to those facilities.
