“More than five million reference
points of the vein pattern are
captured by the highly accurate
PalmSecure sensor.”
Fujitsu PalmSecure technology uses the complex vein pattern in your palm to ensure the safety of your information
violation, alerting the company of any
fraudulent activity. Mapula Mano, SAP
ERP Specialist, Plant Maintenance Sales
& Distribution, Transnet SOC Ltd, said,
“Users are authenticated biometrically
before they can access SAP ERP systems
via shared access kiosks. We no longer
have to worry about password fraud
from users at all.”
For Transnet specifically, Werner
Simpson, CEO of Linx-AS, speaks of
the benefits of the solutions: “It made
it simple, easy, secure, robust, all the
things we wanted to drive on the shop
floor to get our users to come on board.
The Fujitsu PalmSecure, together with
bioLock, allowed us to provide a secure
information platform that we can use
to give the unconnected access to SAP
content.” Lebohang Sophia Makhal,

“The Fujitsu
PalmSecure,
together with
bioLock, allowed
us to provide a
secure information
platform that we
can use to give the
unconnected access
to SAP content.”
continues, “This technology is very
important for Transnet Engineering to
secure the identities of the employees.
There is a lot of fraud happening around
Africa and this technology means
nobody can enter the premises without
using their palm.”
When asked about Linx’s partnership
with Fujitsu, Werner says the company
enabled a straight-forward migration:
“A key driver in our partnership with
Fujitsu has been their willingness to
walk the extra mile, to really involve
and support us and deliver to our
customers. Co-creation to me means we
take the technologies and the skills we
have available and we make that add
real value and make a real difference.
Together with our customers, and with
Fujitsu, we can deliver technologies and
solutions that change their world.” n
