At the ShowStoppers press event, we learned that AirWatch Security Locker is integrating EyeVerify’s Eyeprint tech to protect documents on mobile Android and Apple iOS tablets and smartphones.

“People think that iris and retina (data) are the (only) biometrics associated with the eye,” one EyeVerify rep told aNewDomain. “EyeVerify is an eye vein technology that requires no additional hardware and can use just the camera on your cell phone or tablet device.”
