Case Study: International Swiss Bank achieves passwordless biometric access and 80% TCO reduction with Veridium

Swiss Bank - Customer Case Study

Swiss Bank, a multinational financial institution, faced a costly, fragmented authentication landscape of passwords, soft/hard tokens and multiple vendor solutions that drove millions in help-desk costs and left the bank vulnerable to breaches. Seeking a single, convenient and secure experience across hot desks, laptops and VPN, the bank selected Veridium and its VeridiumID biometric authentication solution for integration with Citrix Federated Authentication Services and Microsoft Active Directory.

Veridium deployed the VeridiumID platform and business adaptor so employees authenticate by scanning a QR code and using mobile biometrics (fingerprint or face) to unlock Citrix virtual desktops and AD resources, eliminating passwords and tokens. The Veridium solution delivered true single-step MFA, dramatically reduced help-desk activity and improved productivity — cutting the bank’s total cost of ownership by in excess of 80% within one year.
