The Most Reliable and Secure Contactless Solution to Date

UNION CITY, Calif., Oct. 1, 2024 /PRNewswire/ — Anviz, a brand of Xthings, a global leader in intelligent security solutions, announces the upcoming release of its latest access control solution, the M7 Palm, equipped with cutting-edge Palm Vein Recognition technology. This innovative device is designed to provide superior accuracy, security, and convenience to high-security and privacy-sensitive environments in industries such as banking, data centers, laboratories, airports, prisons, and government institutions. Launching globally today, Anviz is gearing up to revolutionize the way users interact with access control systems.

Your palm is your key to access.
Your palm is your key to access.

The M7 Palm Vein Access Control Device offers a seamless access experience, allowing users to unlock doors with a wave of the hand. Using Palm Vein Recognition, a top-tier biometric security method, it addresses the limitations of facial and fingerprint recognition by providing a more secure, non-invasive, and user-friendly solution.

Palm Vein Recognition captures the unique pattern of veins inside a person’s palm using near-infrared light. Hemoglobin absorbs the light, creating a vein map, which is converted into a secure digital template through advanced algorithms, ensuring accurate identification. Unlike facial recognition, which may raise privacy concerns, or fingerprint scans, which can be affected by wear, palm vein recognition is discreet, reliable, and harder to forge. Its non-contact nature also makes it more hygienic, ideal for environments with strict health protocols.

The M7 Palm Vein Access Control Device leverages this advanced technology to provide a seamless and secure user experience. With a False Rejection Rate (FRR) of ≤0.01% and a False Acceptance Rate (FAR) of ≤0.00008%, the accuracy of the system far exceeds that of traditional fingerprint or face recognition methods, offering a higher level of protection for critical infrastructure and sensitive information.

The M7 Palm Vein Access Control Device stands out for its numerous advantages, making it an ideal solution for high-security environments. The benefits of using palm veins are as follows:

  • Security: Palm Vein recognition uses a living biometric, making it nearly impossible for intruders to copy or replicate the pattern. This ensures a higher level of security than external biometric methods like fingerprints or facial recognition.
  • Reliability: The Palm Vein structure remains largely unchanged over time, providing long-term stability and consistency in identification.
  • Privacy: Since the technology scans internal veins rather than external features, it is less intrusive and more acceptable to users who are concerned about privacy.
  • Hygiene: The non-contact nature of the technology allows users to simply hover their hand over the scanner without needing to physically touch any surface, making it an ideal solution for environments that prioritize cleanliness and hygiene.
  • Precision: Palm Vein technology captures a larger surface area than fingerprint or face recognition systems, enabling the scanner to collect more data points for comparison, resulting in highly accurate identification.

Moreover, the features of the M7 Palm are designed by meticulously polishing the needs of the users:

  • Enhanced Human-Machine Interaction: Intelligent ToF laser-ranging provides accurate distance measurement, with an OLED display ensuring recognition at precise distances and delivering clear notifications to the user.
  • High-intensity protective design for outdoor: With a narrow metal exterior design,  the standard IP66 design ensures the device works well outdoors, and the IK10 vandal-proof standard ensures a robust and stable installation.
  • PoE Powering and Communications: PoE support provides centralized power management and efficiency with the ability to remotely reboot devices, making it a convenient and flexible solution for many network applications.
  • Two-Factor Verification Security: Supports multiple identity combinations, choosing any two of Palm Vein, RFID card, and PIN Codes to complete the identification, ensuring absolute security in special places.

As security becomes a growing priority, demand for biometric solutions like palm vein recognition is surging. By 2029, the global market for palm vein biometrics is projected to reach $3.37 billion, with a CAGR of over 22.3%. The Banking, Financial Services, and Insurance (BFSI) sector is expected to lead this growth alongside military, security, and data center applications.

“As a milestone product in the biometrics and security industry, till next June, Xthings will work with more than 200 partners to bring the product to markets such as North America, Western Europe, the Middle East, and Asia Pacific, empowering the clients to enjoy a safer and more convenient experience. $3.3 Billion market share is there, let’s work together!” said Peter Chen, Product Marketing Manager. [To talk about partnership]

Though still in the early stages of market adoption, Anviz is committed to advancing palm vein technology. With limited competition, the M7 Palm Vein Access Control Device is poised to make a significant impact. Anviz continues to innovate, delivering smarter, safer, and more convenient security solutions globally.

Viettel Cyber Security: How Philippine Companies Can Prepare for the Rising Ransomware Threat

Leave a comment

MANILA, Philippines, July 29, 2024 /PRNewswire/ — In 2023, businesses in the Philippines were rocked when a company fell victim to the devastating Medusa ransomware. Several months later, an executive department of the Philippine government online systems were temporarily taken offline due to a ransomware attack. Those are just 2 out of hundreds of Ransomware attacks on businesses in the Philippines recently.

Ransomware incidents have become increasingly rampant and aggressive, not only in the Philippines but also in the surrounding region.


Notable Statistics on Ransomware

In the first half of 2024, data encrypted in Ransomware attacks across Southeast Asia reached over 7 Terabytes, with an estimated total ransom amounting to 13 million USD.

“Ransomware attack groups are now operating globally with annual revenues potentially reaching hundreds of millions, even over 1 billion USD” – Mr. Quang Tran Minh, Director of Intelligence Center, Viettel Cyber Security said.


Anyone Can Trigger An Ransomware Attack

Viettel Threat Intelligence has issued a serious warning about the increasing threat of ransomware attacks targeting organizations and businesses across the Philippines.

These attacks involve encrypting sensitive data and virtual infrastructure, causing severe disruptions and significant financial losses, leaving many businesses and organizations unprepared. Attackers escalate initial access to penetrate deeper into the system and then execute data encryption.

On average, it takes 21 days to detect a cyberattack, followed by 12 hours to control the damage, six hours to investigate, and another 12 hours to remediate.

Attackers can remain in the system for a long time, up to 6 months to a year, becoming very familiar with the organization’s behavior, waiting for the right moment to execute encryption, leading to devastating consequences.

“Ransomware combined with targeted APT attacks has become a highly profitable business model, called Ransomware-as-a-service or RAAS, allowing anyone with money and malicious intent to carry out ransomware attacks.”

How Can Businesses Proactively Prevent and Mitigate the Impact of Ransomware?

According to recent researches of Viettel Cyber Security experts, privileged accounts are the shortest path and also the first target of attackers to exploit enterprise infrastructure. Allowing the display of information for remote connection services such as VPN, RDP through default ports or on websites, and unrestricted device usage are among the common mistakes made by enterprises, and your business may also be making.

Is your business ready before Ransomware attack?

Veritas 360 Defense Vendor Ecosystem Expands to Simplify End-to-End Cyber Resilience

Five new security partners have joined the Veritas 360 Defense ecosystem for increased threat monitoring, protection and recoverability. The expanded roster of partners includes Securonix, a leader in next-generation security information and event management, user and entity behavior analytics and security orchestration automation and response.

Mark Stevens, global vice president of channels and alliances at Securonix, said: “A rise in AI-driven, social-engineered credential abuse attacks is putting all applications and data at risk. With Securonix joining the Veritas 360 Defense ecosystem, Veritas customers will be able to easily access an early warning from our AI-powered detection solution that stolen credentials are being used across a wide range of other applications. This will enable them—or their Veritas AI tools—to trigger enhanced security measures for their protection environments before they’re compromised.”

Waxman concluded: “Cyber resilience continues to be a team sport. As cybercriminals change their offense strategy from attacking systems to attacking the people who operate them, the security community needs to come together to adapt their defense strategy. No one can do this alone; they all need both partners and AI on their side.”

Veritas Backup Exec Strengthens Resilience Against Ransomware for SMBs

Leave a comment

Latest release of all-in-one data protection solution features new malware detection, role-based access control and faster backup and recovery

SINGAPORE, March 22, 2024 /PRNewswire/ — Veritas Technologies, the leader in secure multi-cloud data management, today announced enhancements to Veritas Backup Exec, the unified backup and recovery solution trusted by more than 45,000 small and midsize businesses (SMBs) worldwide. The latest updates include malware detection capabilities, role-based access control and additional optimizations for fast backup and recovery of business-critical data.

With ransomware attacks on the rise, data security is a growing concern for all businesses. Veritas research found that over the last two years, 65% of businesses had fallen victim to a ransomware attack in which bad actors infiltrated their systems. A majority also said data security risks are increasing. Small businesses can be especially vulnerable to ransomware attacks, without the in-house expertise to manage the complexities of data security. Many also forgo cyber insurance with a mistaken assumption that by virtue of their smaller size, they are more likely to fly under the radar of cybercriminals.

Simon Jelley, general manager for Backup Exec at Veritas, said: “Make no mistake, SMBs face the same danger as large enterprises. Hackers target smaller companies just as frequently and with more devastating consequences. Only one thing can guarantee recovery if attackers get in – having a reliable backup system. Veritas Backup Exec provides a simple-to-use, all-in-one solution for protecting SMBs’ critical data wherever it lives – in SaaS or specialized applications and workloads, on premises or in the cloud.”

The unified design of Veritas Backup Exec eliminates the need for multiple point products and offers SMBs a powerful, cost-effective way to keep pace with the changing data and threat landscape. Customers can also manage their entire data estate from a single console. Veritas continuously strengthens the solution’s capabilities and defensive measures, adhering to a rapid development cycle. The latest release of Veritas Backup Exec introduces several new features:

  • Malware detection – Equips SMBs with another line of defense against viruses propagating within their data environment. Veritas Backup Exec malware detection, powered by Microsoft Defender, can be used to scan both VMware and Hyper-V backup sets at any time or prior to recovery.
  • Role-based security – Limits access to data based on a user’s specific role. In the event an account is compromised by hackers, the hackers can only corrupt the small volume of data associated with that specific user’s account.
  • Faster backup and recovery – Optimizes protection performance with forever incremental backup of VMware and Hyper-V. Protection of virtual machines is now faster with parallel backup of multiple virtual disks and the included ability to recover virtual machines instantly.

Steve Walcott, server administrator at WalCorp, said: “Ransomware attacks have become inevitable in today’s world. Veritas Backup Exec helps us stay prepared and ready to recover quickly. The all-in-one design is cost-effective and gives us everything we need to keep our data secure, making it simple to protect data across environments.”

Christophe Bertrand, practice director at Enterprise Strategy Group, said: “Whether they realize it or not, SMBs have a target on their backs. Hackers know they lack resources, and our research confirms that SMBs think ransomware is more complex than other attacks and are more likely to pay extortion demands. Veritas is aiming to ‘democratize’ cyber resilience through Backup Exec, giving SMBs data defense tools to help them detect and recover from ransomware attacks with full confidence.”

Veritas Backup Exec is available as a subscription service and can be installed in 10 minutes or less. Once installed, completing the first backup takes only five minutes.
