M2SYS Technology is a global bio-metric identification management company that provides bio-metric identity management software and hardware along with enterprise software applications to several vertical markets including; public safety, workforce management, point of sale, healthcare, education, child care, transportation security, banking and membership management. They offer Software Development Kits to software vendors that want to add bio-metric identification to their applications directly to end users.

The name M2SYS is short for “Mind to System” and was coined by CEO Mizan Rahman to describe the flow of development ideas into a tangible, market-ready bio-metric recognition software engine and ancillary products.

History

M2SYS was incorporated in 2001 as a small software company that developed supply chain software. As the company evolved in technical innovation, it later developed as fingerprint bio-metric research and development center after the invention of Bio-Plugin.[1]

M2SYS established its headquarters in Atlanta, Georgia where it continues to operate. In 2007, they opened an office in Asia located in Dhaka, Bangladesh. In 2013, they opened another office in South America located in Lima, Peru.

Awards

In 2007, the company received the 2007 Biometrics Technology Innovation of the Year Award from Frost & Sullivan.[2]

In the summer of 2010, M2SYS released “Hybrid Biometric Platform,” a client/server bio-metric software system that supports fingerprint, finger vein, palm vein, and iris recognition.[3]

Subsequently, in 2011 the company was awarded the 2011 North American New Product Innovation Award in the Biometrics industry for "Hybrid Biometric Platform".[4]

In 2013, M2SYS was named a Technology Association of Georgia (TAG) Top 40 Innovative Technology Company.[5]

M2SYS was named as one of the 2014 Top 10 Most Innovative Companies in Georgia by the Technology Association of Georgia (TAG).[6]

M2SYS also received recognition as the 2014 Global Impact Award Winner for international business leadership by the Atlanta Metro Chamber of Commerce.[7]

Key Strategic Partnerships

Fujitsu

In April 2010, M2SYS created an alliance with Fujitsu Frontech North America designed to offer PC-based palm vein biometric recognition systems.[8] Under the partnership, M2SYS added support for the Fujitsu PalmSecure biometric identification system to its Bio-Plugin biometrics platform. This alliance was terminated in March 2015.

KRONOS

In June 2009, M2SYS established a partnership with KRONOS, to design software that interfaces with KRONOS Workforce Timekeeper.[9]

Hitachi

M2SYS established a partnership with Hitachi in 2008 to deliver Bio-Plugin bio-metric identification software technology through the USB Finger Vein Biometric Scanner for market deployment.[10]

Key Products

Bio-Plugin

Bio-Plugin is a Bio-metrics software program that allows developers to integrate a server-based biometrics system.[11]

Bio-SnapOn

Bio-SnapOn is a complete bio-metrics software system that can be added (“snapped-on”) to any third party or internally developed software package, without any development work.[12]

Hybrid Biometric Platform

Hybrid Biometrics is a multi-modal bio-metrics system that supports fingerprint, finger vein, palm vein, and iris recognition from a single server.[13]

Bio-Hyperpliance

Bio-Hyperpliance is a scalable multi-modal bio-metrics recognition system that leverages distributed node balancing for 1:N identification of large databases.[14]

RightPunch

RightPunch is multi-modal PC-based “soft” clock data collection software that can be used with or without bio-metrics.

RightPatient

RightPatient is a multi-modal bio-metric identification system designed to identify patients in healthcare to help prevent misidentification and fraud.[15]

ABIS

ABIS stands for Automated Biometric Identification System[16] and its a software package used to perform a wide variety of tasks for processing, editing, searching, retrieving and storing bio-metric templates and subject records.

certisID

A "Know Your Customer" (KYC) bio-metric customer identification application to help the prevention of identity theft, financial fraud, money laundering, or terrorist financing.

M2-FuseID (Hardware)

In late 2013, M2SYS designed and released M2-FuseID - a "smart" multi-modal finger reader that simultaneously captures a fingerprint image and finger vein pattern simultaneously with the single touch of a finger.[17]
