The “Best of Show” prize at the 2004 International Security
Conference (ISC) West went to a company that didn’t exist
before the start of the conference. Launching at ISC West,
oneID won the top honor in the Security Industry
Association (SIA) New Product Showcase (NPS) Awards with
its Simple Verification™ product taking the Best of Show
Innovation Award.
The NPS winners were announced at the entrance of ISC West
in the Sands Convention Center on April 1. There were 64
entries for the 13 awards presented at NPS.
Simple Verification is one of three initial offerings by
oneID, which officially announced its launch the day before
ISC on March 31. “It took us 10 months to get to this
point,” oneID President and CEO Andrew Chapman told
Security Sales & Integration of the company’s
launch. “This is big. To win this is a great honor.”
Simple Verification is an identification and background
verification service that uses biometric platforms for ID
authorization. Another of oneID’s initial offerings,
ServiceAlert™, uses Simple Verification to provide real-
time customer-specific information and can be used by an
end user to keep tabs on when their security or other
electronic system is being installed.
“It gives service providers the ability to track the
installer and the end user knows when they will show up,”
says Chapman, who previously served as director of business
development for ADT.
