Stock Yards Bank & Trust implements Imprivata solution

Tuesday, February 10, 2009

Imprivata, a biometrics developer, has announced that Stock Yards Bank & Trust (SYBT) has implemented its OneSign solution to secure access to data within their financial applications such as Fiserv, loan application software. Imprivata was chosen due to their systems ability to integrate with the SYBT existing financial systems.

Moving from password protected systems and applications to biometrically secured systems and applications was an easy switch for the bank as many employees needed to remember multiple passwords for many different applications which was not a secure solution as well as slowing employee productivity. OneSign enables all employees to use their fingerprint as a password for all secured applications and systems. Additionally, OneSign could reduce IT costs associated with password recovery. [end]
