Trust is technical.
And personal.

A security architecture should stand on its own. The people building it should be willing to stand in front of it.

We did not set out to make palm scanning more convenient.

We set out to solve the reason people do not trust biometrics in the first place.

A face or fingerprint can be useful, but it cannot be changed after a breach. HamsaID began in 2022 with a harder requirement: make presence useful without building a permanent central record of the person.

That led to the architecture we have today: local capture and deletion, authority held by the user, encrypted context-bound matching and a result that reveals only what the relying party needs.

The HamsaID terminal: a wall-mounted unit with a near-infrared sensor above a screen reading "position your hand to start"

Built beyond the lab

Trust gets real at the terminal.

HamsaID has been tested at Rome Fiumicino Airport, integrated with Genetec’s API, developed through a Worldline partnership and presented to the Italian cyber police.

The architecture is ambitious. The work is already physical.
