Motivation Considering that virtual attacks take place more and more often, with increasing damage, there is a need to increase the safety degree of applications representing targets for the attackers.

The project objective the inclusion of the signature based authentication procedure, to increase the security degree of on-line authentication the reduction of the implementation time allotted to execute the authentication system by the developers for this type of solution

Where did we start from? ATHOS bases Patent for signature authentication system BIOACSSISEB

What have we reached? Project eligible expenses financed from public funds : RON New jobs created due to the project: 3 Patent applications resulted from the project: 1 Scientific publications resulted from the project: 3 Private financial contribution of the applicant: RON Project eligible expenses made by SOFTWIN: RON

System functions Security Authorization, confidentiality, integrity Disponibility Over 99% uptime Acuracy Performances of the signature authenticating methods FRR (False Rejection Rate) FAR (False Acceptance Rate) Capacity Maintaining system efficiency when processing a large number of applications in real time using limited resources Nvidia CUDA solution– high processing power at a reduced price

System functions Modifiability Treating a high number of requests from customers in different geographical regions – replication Interoperability Modifiable architecture– multiple biometric technologies can be used Scalability Optimal distribution of tasks by resources Reduced time to design and implement the solution

Workflow – the developer License acquisition+ SDK Creating application instance Developing application Activating application

Workflow – the final user Create system account RegistrationAuthentication

Licensing mode Requirement of SLA (Service Level Agreement) Maximum response time Maximum number of requests per minute Maximum number of users registered in the system Example: E-banking application vs timesheet application

Commercial package 1) Selling authentication services to developers: Subscription fee 2) Pay-per-use: Fee for each authentication Package content: Client SDK User manuals Development licenses + production

Performances* Security level FRR: max % FAR: max. 1% Response time: 1-5 seconds Number of requests per minute: thousands- tens of thousands** * only with the purchased license and while the system is not overloaded ** depending on hardware configuration
