The revolutionary Identity and Access Management (IAM) and Identity-Bound Biometric (IBB) solution provider BIO-key International, Inc. today established a strategic alliance with Singapore's Progreso Networks & Security Pte. Ltd. to offer IAM solutions to clients throughout Southeast Asia.
The access management solutions provided by BIO-key include BIO-key PortalGuard, a unified IAM platform that provides more customizable options for Multi-factor Authentication (MFA), Single Sign-on (SSO), and Self-service Password Reset (SSPR) than any other platform. The only IAM platform that offers identity-bound biometric authentication is PortalGuard. This method uses a single, centralised biometric identification to confirm the identity of the individual executing a transaction. This means that rather than just confirming a person's device, password, or token, trust may be built that the person is the right person. Additionally, PortalGuard unifies several point solutions under centralised security policies so that clients may approach their access control strategy holistically.
Progreso is a Value-Added Distributor and professional services provider for cybersecurity and network solutions in public key infrastructure (PKI) and endpoint security, with particular expertise in identity management, data protection, key management systems, hardware security modules and certificates. Through its robust SI partner network, Progreso has gained a strong foothold in the government sector, protecting critical infrastructures from cyber threats.
Victor Tang, Managing Director, Progreso, stated, "We are really delighted to seal this cooperation with BIO-key and to offer their award-winning IAM platform and cutting-edge solutions. "BIO-key has a history of successfully delivering IAM projects to businesses in the American and European markets, and we hope to build on this success in Singapore and Southeast Asia."

According to Alex Rocha, Managing Director - EMEA, BIO-key, "As organisations of all sizes battle with cybersecurity, risk, and privacy problems, it is crucial that we offer the solutions enterprises require to every part of the world." "Delivering identification solutions to customers in Southeast Asia requires our cooperation with Progreso. A winning combination between BIO-simple key's IAM solutions and Progreso's network of system integrators is assured given the severe lack of cybersecurity expertise in Asia-Pacific.
