Biometric Identity Solution
Gain control over your point-of-sale (POS) environment with fingerprint biometrics. Combat employee theft and fraud while improving auditability and manager accountability.
Attacking fraud and theft at the POS
Employee theft accounts for the highest percentage of retail shrink in North America — more than the percentage of theft from traditional shoplifters or outside organized retail criminals.
A widely under-addressed vulnerability to theft is the point-of-sale (POS). Traditional security methods used to log in — passwords, PINs, swipe cards and keys — can be easily shared. It is difficult to determine who is accessing the POS system and responsible for specific transactions.
Challenges at the point-of-sale
Time & Attendance Fraud
Tardy arrivals, “buddy punching,” “lollygagging”, extended breaks and early departures
Inventory Shrink
Unauthorized voids, refunds, returns, discounts, and fraudulent gift card transactions
IT Costs
