BURLINGTON, Mass., Oct. 04, 2022 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Aware, Inc. (NASDAQ: AWRE), a leading authentication company applying proven and trusted adaptive authentication to solve everyday business challenges with biometrics, is bringing its full portfolio of world-class authentication solutions to this year’s Identity Week America conference. This leading industry event will take place from October 4-5 in Washington D.C.

Government and commercial institutions are experiencing an evolution of digital identity and access management solutions. With data breaches and identity theft on the rise and increasingly mobile workforces, providers need fool-proof, reliable identification and authentication more than ever. Aware’s trusted and award-winning authentication solutions are designed to meet these needs head on, enabling government agencies and businesses to protect and manage access to their sensitive assets securely and conveniently.

“Our digital world increasingly necessitates authentication solutions that go beyond contemporary methods such as passwords and key cards,” commented Bob Eckel, president and chief executive officer of Aware. “We have designed our portfolio to address virtually any authentication need, whether it’s a government agency looking to secure their physical or digital assets, or a business seeking a more convenient and secure means of onboarding and authenticating their workers. We are excited to participate once again at Identity Week America and talk to attendees about how we can help with their specific authentication needs.”

Biometric technology forms the backbone of today’s most trusted authentication solutions. As such, Aware will be participating in three presentations at Identity Week America to help agencies and businesses adopt biometrics as smoothly and painlessly as possible. The first presentation, “Biometric Adoption: It’s All About Perception” (October 4 at 11:50am EST), will be hosted by Tracy Hulver, Aware’s senior director of product management. In this presentation, Tracy will provide attendees with the many factors that go into a successful biometric adoption, and how to help users with the transition.

In Aware’s second presentation, “Moving Towards a Passwordless Future: What Will it Take to Put Passwords Behind Us Once and For All?” (October 5 at 11am EST), senior director of marketing, Gina Rodrigues, will provide attendees with a deeper dive on the public sentiment around passwords, the need to replace them, and the considerations that organizations should make before going passwordless. Following that presentation, Aware will be providing attendees with an opportunity to discuss the topic in more detail. This roundtable event, “Biometric Adoption Strategies: The Good, Bad and the Ugly” (October 5 at 12:10pm EST), will be hosted by Magruder Dent, Aware’s senior director of federal sales.

Aware will also be showcasing its full portfolio of trusted authentication products at booth 312. These products include:
