Case Study: Large Corporate Bank Company prevents biometric bypass attacks with Sepio HAC-1

Large Corporate Bank Com - Customer Case Study

A Large Corporate Bank Company relied on palm-vein biometric authentication to secure access, but a third-party security system discovered that the scanner had been compromised and unauthorized personnel were being granted access. The challenge was a lack of visibility into rogue hardware and device manipulation at the biometric access point.

Sepio addressed the issue with its HAC-1 Rogue Device Mitigation solution, using physical-layer fingerprinting and machine learning to detect the foreign BeagleBone/USBProxy device connected to the scanner and identify it as rogue. By uncovering the compromised biometric device and enabling mitigation through security policy enforcement, Sepio improved hardware visibility and helped prevent unauthorized access, though the case study does not provide a specific quantitative impact.
