Chile-based Banco Falabella has adopted an advanced security system for its branches throughout the country.
The bank has chosen Identix's biometric security solutions to provide heightened security for its customers, while eliminating the need to remember cumbersome passwords.
It has installed Identix's BioLogon software and 150 MT Digit fingerprint readers, which incorporate Identix's optical fingerprint reading technology, at teller windows in many of its banks. Customers are required to verify their identity via the fingerprint readers prior to performing a transaction.
Banco Falabella has also installed BioLogon and 50 MT Digit fingerprint readers at its credit card centres to tackle fraud. It has also integrated Identix's fingerprint technology into five Diebold ATM machines at select locations throughout Chile to allow customers to withdraw money without using PIN numbers.
