HOLMDEL, N.J., June 25, 2024 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- BIO-key® International, Inc. (NASDAQ: BKYI), an innovative provider of workforce and customer Identity and Access Management (IAM) software infrastructure featuring passwordless, phoneless and token-less Identity-Bound Biometrics (IBB) authentication solutions, today announces that Los Angeles LGBT Center with 17 locations and nearly 800 employees has selected its PortalGuard® platform for secure, streamlined desktop sign-in that meets regulatory and insurance compliance requirements. The most prominent LGBTQ+ organization in the world, the Center offers programs, services, and advocacy spanning four areas: Health, Social Services and Housing, Culture and Education, and Leadership.
The newly implemented system marks a significant advancement for the Center, offering a highly scalable solution that includes enterprise-grade identity and access management capabilities and an identity provider (IDP) engine. BIO-key’s state-of-the-art PortalGuard security solution provides a badge-tap authentication system that eliminates the need for traditional password entry, ensuring secure and efficient access to critical resources in the Center. Using Center-provided badges, end-users can now simply tap their badge on a workstation reader and enter a 4-digit PIN to automatically sign in to their daily applications. PortalGuard has enhanced security and significantly reduced IT support demands, allowing LA LGBT Center staff to focus more on patient care.
"The decision to partner with BIO-key was influenced by the Center's goal to find an IAM solution that would bolster security while improving workflow efficiencies – like, for example, nurses accessing exam rooms,” said Mark Cochran, President of BIO-key’s PortalGuard division. “Additionally, unlike other competitive products that require extensive Active Directory modifications, our PortalGuard solution seamlessly integrates smoothly with the Center’s current infrastructure, minimizing disruption and maximizing productivity. BIO-key’s collaboration with the Los Angeles LGBT Center exemplifies our commitment to providing healthcare organizations with robust security solutions that simplify end-user access and workflows.”
