is the leading
technology provider of identity authentication solutions
in
Malaysia. The Group is primarily involved in the provision
of secure
IT solutions focusing on the use of the latest
technologies of smart card
and biometrics. The Company
offers innovative enterprise solutions that

Tricubes, via 70% owned EPNCR, was awarded the
contract to develop a portable
card acceptance device
together with its on-board applications for the Malaysian
Government Multipurpose Card (GMPC) project, the first
nationwide implementation
of an integrated identification
and e-commerce application worldwide. "Smart"
National
Identity Cards were issued to Malaysian citizens, storing
on a
microchip the cardholder's fingerprint, driver license, passport, and personal
health data. EPNCR developed the SMA (Secure Mobile Appliance) Enterprise
1020, a wireless handheld computer integrating a smart card reader and UPEK's
TouchChip® biometric fingerprint sensor. Not only does this Card Acceptance
Device authenticate cardholders, but it enables cardholders to securely
store e-cash on their card. |
