Chapter 11: Integrating the Biometric System
Once you determine the need to fully integrate a new biometric system within an organization, the next step is to outline how best to move through the process. To ensure a successful implementation and avoid major complications, the team should carefully plan and think through all critical aspects. In this chapter, you’ll get a better grasp of some of the planning that must be done prior to deploying a biometric system.
Today, there are several ways to integrate a biometric system within an existing environment. In some cases, the organization will opt to use an out-of-band, proprietary system. However, in other cases, the system will integrate with a central network directory, and the biometric data will need to travel over the network. In that case, one of the considerations when deploying a biometric system in an organization is to evaluate the network.
Sending biometric data over the network may have additional bandwidth...
