M2SYS Technology has announced that it has struck a partnership with H.P.C. Informatique, a computer reseller in the West African nation of Benin, to meet the growing demands for biometric technology in the region. The partnership is designed to combine the innovative biometric fingerprint, finger vein and palm vein technology prowess of M2SYS with the renowned reputation and resource depth of H.P.C. to deliver biometric solutions that meet the growing demand for information security, identity protection and public safety.

These biometric technology solutions can be deployed in areas such as health care identification, information security, integration into identification documents and public safety.
