Bayometric, a leader in biometric technology and identity management solutions, proudly announces that its flagship Live Scan Software has earned FBI Appendix F Certification—a pivotal milestone that highlights the company’s commitment to top-tier image quality, compliance, and innovation in biometric fingerprint capture.
This certification affirms that Bayometric’s software meets the rigorous standards set by the FBI for fingerprint image clarity and transmission accuracy, ensuring compatibility with federal databases and government background check protocols.
Meeting the Gold Standard in Biometric Imaging
FBI Appendix F Certification is considered the highest benchmark in the biometric industry for fingerprint imaging systems. The certification process evaluates the software’s ability to produce images that are suitable for use within the Next Generation Identification (NGI) system—the FBI’s most advanced biometric identification platform.
Bayometric’s Live Scan Software was tested extensively alongside industry-leading ten-print devices, including:
-
Suprema RealScan G10
-
Integrated Biometrics Kojak
-
Thales DactyScan 84c
Each device integrated seamlessly with Bayometric’s platform, capturing high-resolution prints that met or exceeded image quality, alignment, and minutiae accuracy requirements.
Streamlined Compliance and Secure Transmission
Bayometric’s newly certified solution goes beyond compliance. The software supports real-time generation and submission of Electronic Fingerprint Transmission (EFT) files, allowing law enforcement agencies, identity verification providers, and background check companies to operate more efficiently and securely.
Key compliance-focused features include:
-
500ppi fingerprint capture aligned with Electronic Biometric Transmission Specification (EBTS)
-
Adherence to Personal Identity Verification (PIV) standards for federal ID programs
-
Advanced encryption protocols to ensure secure end-to-end data transmission
-
Compatibility with fixed and mobile fingerprint capture devices
These features are vital for organizations that demand reliability and speed without compromising data integrity or privacy.
