Powerful Biometric Management with Ares™
For decades, biometric identity has required complex integration and costly resources. Ares™ simplifies this challenge with a centralized, secure platform that is easy to deploy, operate, and maintain—whether in tactical environments or enterprise-scale infrastructures.
Effortless Biometric Transactions
Submit biometric data and receive rapid responses to and from back-end AFIS/ABIS biometric servers powered by Ares, enabling accurate and timely identity verification.
Ares Mobile Biometrics Application: Rapid Identification Anywhere
The Ares Mobile Biometrics Application (MBA) is a comprehensive mobile software platform developed for the collection, validation, and submission of biometric data in field operations. It enables personnel from military, law enforcement, and humanitarian organizations to efficiently capture fingerprints, facial images, iris scans, and voice recordings on-site. The application is well-suited for environments where rapid, secure, and adaptable biometric identification is required, including scenarios with limited connectivity or operational challenges.
Biometric Data Command Center: The Ares™ Gateway Transaction Manager
The Ares™ Gateway Transaction Manager serves as the “traffic controller” for biometric data, ensuring secure, standardized transmission and device management. As a centralized repository for biometric collections, receiving biometric submissions from deployed collection devices, the Gateway automatically submits collections to authoritative national back-end databases. Biometric matches are returned and flagged for Gateway operators and administrators and can be automatically sent back to collection devices in near real-time.
Ares™ ABIS: Your Biometric Matchmaker
Ares™ ABIS provides secure, high-performance, web-based biometric processing and real-time identity management, whether deployed locally or in the cloud. Designed for seamless integration with both local and national repositories, Ares™ ABIS supports efficient transaction submission, rapid multimodal biometric matching, and streamlined identity management, all powered by the highest NIST-ranked biometric algorithms.
Flexible deployment options enable organizations to leverage either rugged tactical servers or scalable cloud platforms such as AWS and Azure, ensuring robust performance across a variety of operational environments.
