We provide Live Scan fingerprinting services for a wide variety of state agencies, programs and industries including:.
Livescan fingerprinting is the process of capturing fingerprints electronically with our advanced LiveScan machine. With LiveScan fingerprinting, there is no ink or card.
It is faster, cleaner and more accurate than the old ink-and-roll method. A percentage of the population have difficult-to-read fingerprints, which can be due to age or certain types of work such as construction, or from prolonged exposure to various chemicals. Our state-of-the-art equipment and highly trained staff are able to maximize the quality of fingerprint images obtained, which reduces the likelihood of illegible fingerprints and will reduce the overall application processing time.
The fingerprints are then submitted to the specific state agency to process. Fingerprint Cards are an excellent item to store in your personal records, for you and your family members. Fingerprint-based background checks run fingerprint searches against both FBI and state criminal databases to create a complete criminal profile of the applicant. Modern automated fingerprint identification systems can produce identification error rates of less than one percent.
Conversely, name checks result in appreciable numbers of both false positives and false negatives. In general, name checks are much less reliable than fingerprint searches. Because it is rare for this information to be unique to a particular individual, name checks can produce inaccurate results, especially when there are names and other identifiers in the database that are similar or identical to the information being checked.
