Challenge

Traditional Identity Verification Processes Hindered Police Efficiency

Before implementing Veridium 4F-ID, Hamburg police officers had to transport individuals to the station to verify their identities against federal and Interpol databases, which consumed significant time and resources and pulled officers away from their patrol duties. This process was inefficient and disrupted law enforcement operations.

Solution

Innovative Mobile Fingerprint Scanning Transforms Policing

Veridium 4F-ID, integrated into the “mDakty” mobile application, allowed Hamburg patrol officers to capture and verify fingerprints on the spot using department-issued smartphones. This innovative approach eliminated the need to take individuals to the station, enabling immediate biometric identification through off-the-shelf commercial smartphones, thus maintaining patrol efficiency and effectiveness.

Result

Enhanced Efficiency and Community Relations with Veridium 4F-ID

The implementation of Veridium 4F-ID transformed the efficiency of Hamburg’s police force, significantly reducing time spent on identity verification and allowing officers to remain in their patrol areas. This not only improved police efficiency but also benefited the community by minimizing unnecessary detentions and allowing innocent individuals to continue their activities without undue delay.
