Nirph Bio-ID is a single centralized system that stores all biometric and associated biographic data that is needed for customer identification. Biometric data and associated biographic data are used by the Nirph BIO-ID Bureau to conduct background checks, facilitate card production, and accurately identify individuals.
Nirph CIS systems capture biometric data from individuals to facilitate three key operational functions:
- Creating a “for life: unique bio-identification number;
- Conducting fingerprint-based background checks;
- Verifying an individual’s identity; and
- Producing identity cards/documents.
 The Nirph Bio-ID bureau is hosted country specific and is the centralized storage and management area for customer information provided by various financial institutions and governmental agencies. The bureau hosts customer information including but not limited to customer fingerprints, photos and KYC information. In certain instances data concerning financial institutions and customer lending amounts will also be stored. Information relating to suspicious individuals will be accumulated centrally and then shared across the financial platform as batch info to banks and real-time identification information to Micro finance Banks and other related lending institutions and credit bureaus.
Information in this system is safeguarded in accordance with applicable laws and policies, including the Nirph information technology security policies. All records are protected from unauthorized access through appropriate administrative, physical, and technical safeguards. These safeguards include restricting access to only authorized personnel who have a need-to-know, using locks, and password protection features. The system is also protected through a multi-layer security approach. The protective strategies are physical, technical, administrative and environmental in nature, which provide access control to sensitive data, physical access control to the storage facilities, confidentiality of communications, authentication of sending parties, and personnel screening to ensure that all personnel with access to data are screened through background investigations commensurate with the level of access required to perform their duties.
Nirph provide the complete system, including hardware and software as well as a complete team of system experts, to countries to manage and assist in populating the database. A management transactional fee is applicable for every transaction been performed and is negotiable on a country specific basis.
