“Imageware has been undergoing a comprehensive transformation process, rebuilding and creating products that will drive the company’s value and increase market share in enterprises as well as federal, state and local government,” said Company Chair, President, and CEO Kristin Taylor. “We’ve received considerable inbound interest over the past few months relating to Imageware’s three decades of experience in providing federal governments with biometric authentication as well as our work in building a biometric blockchain identity management platform.”

“Imageware has enhanced its core biometric engine, rebuilt its enterprise multi-factor authentication (MFA) product and revamped its original law enforcement platform. These initiatives have been major builds, performed by a talented team of engineers and supporting staff. We also continue to be one the most cited companies in IP for biometrics, by the likes of some of the largest corporations in the world.”
