Frequently Asked Questions - B-web 95 00 Dormakaba

How does the biometric fingerprint recognition work on the B-web 95 00?

The finger is placed on the optical sensor. The terminal creates a unique mathematical template based on the fingertip's distinctive features (position coordinates). This template is compared with stored reference templates for identification (1:n) or with a badge-stored template for verification (1:1). No actual fingerprint image is stored; only an anonymous numerical code.

What is the difference between identification and verification methods?

In identification (1:n), the finger is compared against all templates stored in the terminal. No badge is needed. In verification (1:1), the user presents a badge containing their personal template; the sensor compares the finger only with that badge template. Verification is faster and more data-protection-friendly, as the template stays on the badge.

What are the benefits of using the B-web 95 00 biometric system?

Benefits include: unique personal identification (no buddy punching), elimination of badge administration costs, reduced erroneous bookings and corrections, legally binding time records, simple integration into existing systems, and high user acceptance due to fast and convenient operation.

Does the B-web 95 00 store my fingerprint image?

No. The system stores only an anonymous mathematical reference template (vectorized numerical code) derived from the fingerprint. It is impossible to reconstruct the original fingerprint image from this template. This ensures full data protection and compliance with privacy regulations.

Can the B-web 95 00 be used without badges?

Yes. In identification mode, users identify themselves solely with their fingerprint – no badge is required. This is convenient and eliminates badge management costs.

How is enrollment (initial registration) done?

Enrollment can be done centrally using a PC with the MSO 1300 or MSO 300 USB enrollment station, or locally directly at the B-web 95 00 terminal. At least two fingers are registered per person to ensure reliable recognition.

Can the B-web 95 00 integrate with existing time and access control systems?

Yes. The terminal supports simple integration into existing Kaba systems and other standard systems. It can be used alongside traditional card-based terminals and supports both identification and verification modes to suit different security needs.

What happens if a user’s finger is injured or dirty?

The terminal's optical sensor is designed to tolerate minor variations. However, for reliable recognition, ensure the sensor is clean and the finger is dry. If the finger is too damaged, the user can alternatively enter a PIN or use a badge (if verification mode used). The system allows dual authentication methods.

Is the B-web 95 00 weatherproof for outdoor use?

The B-web 95 00 itself is designed for indoor use. For outdoor or harsh environments, the separate Kaba biometric reader 91 50 is available, which is certified IP54 and weatherproof.

How many users can the B-web 95 00 support?

The terminal can handle up to approximately 200 users when used with the MSO 1300 enrollment station. For larger enterprises, the premium MSO 300 station is recommended for maximum performance and scalability. The actual capacity may vary based on configuration and usage.

Increase security and cut costs at the same time?

If so, biometric data collection from Kaba is just what you need.

Biometric methods have now become established in time registration and access control. They are technically mature and guarantee trouble-free use in practice. Kaba became involved with biometrics at an early stage and now has in-depth knowledge of the development and application of biometric solutions. From the large number of possible biometric identification features - finger, veins, hand, iris - Kaba has decided in favor of finger recognition. Compared with other technologies, data collection using fingerprints is characterized by effective detection performance combined with a high level of security and maximum user acceptance. This comes as no surprise. After all, the collection process is simple and fast - a brief touch of the sensor with the finger is all it takes.

How does biometric finger recognition work?

Using a finger instead of a badge to identify persons in a unique and legally binding manner, but how exactly does it work?

The concept is easy. The biometric reading unit creates a unique recognition template based on distinctive features of the fingertip. This involves a mathematical description of position coordinates.

This template is stored in a one-off enrollment process as the unique reference for the person. No visual fingerprint is reproduced from this reference template. Two different fingers are always registered in order to guarantee reliable recognition at all times.

If an employee wishes to identify themself at a terminal, they places their finger on the sensor. The finger is compared with the stored reference template. If this tallies, the time or access booking is carried out.

Two different methods: Identification or verification

Would you like to bring in biometric identification and do away with badges completely? Do you already use badges but would like to increase security in your company using a biometric method? Kaba offers you both the identification and the verification method. Both methods have their advantages.

IDENTIFICATION VERIFICATION

The identification method

With this method, the reference templates are stored in the collection terminal. If an employee places their finger on the sensor, a so-called 1:n comparison is made. This means that the finger is compared with all reference templates allocated to this terminal. If this tallies, the time or access booking is carried out.

With this convenient, badge-free method, each person identifies themself solely with their fingerprint. This offers the advantage that costly badge management is no longer required. A further advantage is that the fingerprint is always there and cannot be forgotten or stolen.

    D["User Interface"] -->|1:1| E["KARA\n1001100101"]

The verification method

With verification, the personal reference template is stored on the employee's badge. If a person places their finger on the sensor, a 1:1 comparison is made, in contrast to identification. The reference template is first read from the badge and is then compared with the finger that has just been placed. If the two features tally, the time is recorded or the accessed granted.

Verification not only represents a very fast and secure type of recognition, but can also be used in countries where strict data protection regulations apply. The employee is responsible for retaining the personal biometric data. No further storage or distribution of these data is required.

Company-wide use of a Kaba biometric solution

In many cases, enrollment of persons is carried out centrally in the company's human resources department. The reference templates are then distributed to the terminals throughout the company. In companies with global operations, enrollment can be carried out at different locations. In this case, each location has its own biometric administration, but this is connected to the centrally installed server. Local enrollment using the collection terminal directly is also possible if, for example, ad-hoc enrollment of new employees is required in a branch office.

All of this is already taken into account in the biometric collection system from Kaba:

system-wide biometric administration

central collection for the one-off enrollment of the reference template

Intelligent administration and distribution of biometric data to all connected terminals, including different locations

Integration and operation of biometric terminals together with existing installed terminals

Data protection - and what you need to know about it

Personal data must be collected and processed in accordance with legal data protection requirements. Do I maintain responsibility for my personal data? Will my fingerprint be stored and possibly even passed on? These are valid questions from employees and are taken very seriously by Kaba.

It is important to know that the method used by Kaba does not store any fingerprint image, but only an anonymous, mathematical reference template. The personal features of the fingertip are vectorized and converted into a complex numerical code. The relevant personnel number is allocated to this value. A fingerprint image cannot be reproduced under any circumstances. Misuse of personal employee data by third parties is therefore avoided. If an employee still has concerns, he can alternatively enter his personal identification number (optionally with additional PIN) via the keypad.

Kaba offers comprehensive consultancy to your project manager or data protection manager, so that your biometric system can be seamlessly introduced.
