Integrations and channel partnerships expand biometrics market reach
Startup Badge has emerged from stealth with an integration of its privacy-preserving authentication technology with Ping Identity’s no-code digital identity orchestration service.
Badge’s software enables the use of biometrics for authentication on any device, according to the announcement. It derives private keys using biometrics and factors chosen by the user without hardware tokens or secrets, the company says. Badge bills itself as providing “Identity without Secrets.”
The software has been integrated with PingOne DaVinci through Ping’s Global Technology Partner Program.
“Badge is revolutionizing privacy for consumers so that enterprises can safely move to a future without the liability of storing user biometric templates, pins, or secrets,” says Charles Herder, Badge co-founder and MIT Cryptography Ph.D. “Our partnership with Ping Identity is in line with our commitment to integrate our patented and award-winning technology seamlessly with partners using open standards to extend privacy-preserving authentication to the masses.”
