SecureTec SDK Specifications
  • Flexible, customizable, and secure user authentication
  • Secure data storage services, database and device based with customizable access conditions
  • Simple uniform and categorized interface for biometric device functionality
  • Secure application execution contexts and data. Applications cannot corrupt or steal other application's data or affect their execution
  • Built-in client/server based functionality - Active Directory integration
  • Automatic device polling services. Detection of PnP devices (insertion/removal) functionality is provided as well as services to detect when "biometric sources" are present for sampling
  • BAPI compliant device support
  • User based security context switching so applications can operate under authenticated user contexts
  • An appropriate license of SecureSuite or SecureTec is required per protected workstation

Architecture
The SecureTec SDK architecture is highly modular and built around I/O Software's SecureTec Authentication Platform. It combines SecureTec with the BAPI device interface as well as a number of tools and standardized APIs, and thus enables a quick and solid development cycle for 3rd party applications.
SecureTec SDK
The architecture of SsApi is a flat model with a C interface. There are five separate modules that provide and support the functionality present in SsApi, namely SsAso (Application Security), SsRmo (Record Management), SsSmo (System Management), SsUmo (User Management), SsMci (Method Management), and SsUso (User Security). The organization of the API and the grouping of its functions are analogous to these support modules.
The following components are included with SecureTec SDK:
  • Header files for DLL interface
  • ActiveX control for COM interface
  • C++ Sample Application
  • Visual Basec Sample Application
  • SecureTec AP with 1 workstation license
  • Documentation
The lib is for explicit linking of the SsApi functions. The headers include all the prototypes and defines necessary to work with the API. The SsApiTest is a test application that demonstrates the usage of all functions included in the API and supplied with full source code.
