Biometrics Stocks Take Center Stage As Apple (AAPL) iPhone Sales Soar

New York, NY - September 23, 2013 (www.investorideas.com newswire) Investorideas.com, an investor portal specializing in sector research including biometrics and mobile security stocks, issues an updated directory for biometrics stocks following Apple’s report of selling over 9 Million iPhones over the weekend that incorporate biometric technology.

The new biometric Touch ID fingerprint technology has resulted in a new wave of interest in biometric technology and related stocks within the sector. Shares of Precise Biometrics, Fingerprint Cards, ImageWare Systems and NXT-ID, Inc have all benefited from the new buzz created by Apple’s implementation.
Additionally the biometric sector has made headlines as the Department of Homeland Security tests facial recognition technology and leading companies including Facebook (NASDAQ: FB) add facial recognition to their platforms .
Apple Reviews
Walter S. Mossberg of The Wall Street Journal recommends iPhone 5s "for anyone looking for a premium, advanced smartphone." He calls the phone’s Touch ID fingerprint sensor "a potentially game-changing hardware feature" and iOS 7 "a radically new operating system."
Ed Baig of USA Today looks at both iPhone 5s and iPhone 5c. On the iPhone 5s, he writes, "Taken in totality, the features new to the iPhone 5s make what I consider to be the best smartphone on the market even better." He concludes, "I can strongly recommend either new iPhone but especially the 5s."
David Pogue of The New York Times posts two stories. In his iOS review he writes, "The structure, layout and features represent some of Apple’s best work." In his iPhone review, he calls iPhone 5c "a terrific phone," noting, "The price is right. It will sell like hot cakes." On iPhone 5s, he’s impressed with the improved camera and says the best part of Touch ID is "it actually works — every single time, in my tests. It’s nothing like the balky, infuriating fingerprint-reader efforts of earlier cellphones."

Entertainment Alert: Interview with Award Winning Producer, Rhode Island Businessman and Investor Chad A. Verdi; Betting on the Best and Taking Risks

New York, NY, Point Roberts, WA - September 19, 2013 (www.investorideas.com newswire Entertainment and Financial alert) Investorideas.com, an investor research portal specializing in sector research for independent investors features an interview with and insight into entrepreneurial producer, businessman and investor Chad A. Verdi of Rhode Island. A self-made businessman, Chad always takes big risks and passionately vests himself in each endeavor he takes on.  From his role as an award winning producer and film-maker over the past decade, to now taking on a role as the largest investor in biometric mobile security company NXT-ID, Inc., (OTCQB: NXTD) Chad lives by the motto "go big or go home".

Q&A Interview
Q: Investorideas.com
Chad you are the American dream in action with your multiple roles in business. Can you give us some background and history of your entrepreneurial journey?
A:Chad A. Verdi
At 18 years old I acquired my first business, a Rhode Island television listing newspaper called TV Facts, which is still in publication today.
In the years leading up to the age of 21 I acquired several other businesses in the food service sector throughout RI. By age 30, I owned, co-owned, served as principal or had investments in over a dozen businesses that ranged from the food industry and toy manufacturing to restaurants and hi-tech developments in the biotechnology field and nuclear waste management.
Over the last 15 years, I have been involved in over $1 billion of business mergers, reverse mergers, start-ups and acquisitions. I currently own, co-own or have investments in more than two dozen businesses in diversified industries with more than 1000 local employees and sales of more than $100 million nationwide.
I also hold a large real estate portfolio that includes the 175-year-old former United Methodist Church in East Greenwich where the constitution of RI was adopted.
Through my production companies, Verdi Productions and Woodhaven Production Company , I have produced six featured films over the last 38 months
In July 2013, I became the largest independent shareholder in the biometric mobile security company NXT-ID, Inc. (OTCQB: NXTD) (http://nxt-id.com/). This is my newest venture outside the film industry.
Q- Investorideas.com
I think the first question for anyone looking at the diverse background in business is what motivates you and what do you look for in a business venture?
A: Chad A. Verdi
What motivates me is being able too look outside the box, seeing things others can't or are overlooking. When you can achieve that, the sky's the limit on what your maximum potential in an investment can be. In the case of NXT-ID, Inc , they have the products in a space that I feel has huge potential. Mobile security is what everyone is talking about now; it's a very hot sector. Their 3D facial recognition is leading technology. Their first product, the Wocket, which is launching this fall, sets the stage for the roll-out of their Mobile suite of products. Just like my other investments in Apple and Yahoo, they were leaders in their respective markets and being first pays off big time!
Q- Investorideas.com
In respect to your role as film-maker and producer, can you give us some background on your companies Verdi Productions (VP) and The Woodhaven Production Company?
A: Chad A. Verdi
My production company, VP was founded in 2009 as an independent and fully-funded media production company based in New York City and RI. We just completed our sixth feature film within the last 38 months, 'A Bets a Bet'. VP will produce the bigger budget films while The Woodhaven Production Company focuses on films under 2.5 million dollars. Both companies are positioning themselves to be serious contenders in the film industry.
Q- Investorideas.com
For a new company in the entertainment industry, you have attracted some very impressive names and talent to your team. I just read that you signed Oscar winners Martin Scorsese and Bruce Cohen along with Ben Younger and Emma Tillinger Koskoff to your next project (Bleed for This). How excited are you about working with them and how did all of this come about?
A: Chad A. Verdi
I am extremely excited about the caliber of talent attached to this project. This film is the reason my wife Michelle, (head of music and talent) and I got involved in this business. Having Ben, Martin, Bruce, and Emma involved elevates this project to a whole new level. It all started with the great script Ben wrote, the writer/director and the leader of our team. He is a true gem.
Q- Investorideas.com
Your recent investment in NXTD-Inc. is in a sector that is making all the headlines now as Apple talks about biometrics technology for its smartphones. When did you first get involved as an investor and what inspired you to take the risk? What are some examples of other stocks in your current portfolio?
A: Chad A. Verdi
I started investing in NXT-ID, Inc over a year ago, knowing it was a huge risk if the company could not deliver on what they stated they could. My best scenario was correct and they delivered on their first revenue stream in biometrics, then delivered on becoming public and soon they will deliver their first of its kind 'digital wallet' prototype of the Wocket. They have taken a different approach with Wocket; reducing the number of cards in your wallet while supporting virtually every payment method currently available at retailers around the world. I bought both Apple ( AAPL) and Yahoo (YHOO) at very low prices. I feel NXT-ID has the same upside potential as those two did in their early stages.
Q- Investorideas.com
In closing what is on the horizon for you as both a film-maker and an investor?
A: Chad A. Verdi
The Bleed for This project, is very important to me and my family. Bleed For This tells the true-life story of world champion Rhode Island boxer Vinny Pazienza as he recovers from a near fatal car accident and goes on to win three additional world boxing titles, one of the most incredible and dramatic comebacks in sports history. We want Vinny's story told to share his great achievement with the world.
As an investor, NXT-ID, Inc (OTCQB: NXTD) could change the world we live in as we all go mobile. That's pretty cool!
About the Verdi Productions and Woodhaven Production Company:
Both Verdi Productions and The Woodhaven Production Company are fully funded film production companies, covering all aspects of filmmaking - from conception of script through postproduction.

Q&A with Steve Yuzpe of Sprott Resource Corp Discussing Agriculture and Water

New York, NY, Point Roberts, WA - September 18, 2013 (Investorideas.com Water Stocks Newswire) Investorideas.com, an investor research portal specializing in sector research for independent investors including water and agriculture stocks issues an exclusive interview with Mr. Steve Yuzpe, Chief Financial Officer at Sprott Resource Corp. Mr. Yuzpe provides insight into global trends and opportunities within the sectors.
Q: Investorideas.com
Where do you see the biggest opportunities in agriculture and can you give us some of the publicly traded companies you like?
A: Steve Yuzpe of Sprott Resource Corp
Sprott Resource Corp. is the private equity group within the Sprott Group of Companies ... so public stocks are not my specialty.
That said, the Ag sectors that we like are fertilizers (especially phosphate), healthy food themes and water
Q: Investorideas.com
Outside of traditional agriculture companies and related suppliers like seeds, fertilizer and transportation do you see agriculture getting more into technology, for example water management and treatment technologies within the actual umbrella of an Ag company?
A: Steve Yuzpe of Sprott Resource Corp
Yes. I think technology and water management will be very important sub-sectors within the agriculture sector.
Technology: has to be part of the solution to deal with the increase in primary production required to feed the planet in the next 40 years. The population will grow by 40 – 50%, but the global grain and oilseed production will need to increase by 80 – 100%. Technology will impact every aspect of primary production (for example, off the top of my head, seed genetics, variable rate farming, farm machinery (smart, auto-steer seeding units), efficient / secure storage, water extraction, enhanced food preservation, etc.)
Water: 70% of global water use is from agriculture and significantly more water will be required to increase global production. Improvements in technology, awareness and conservation are all part of the solution. There is absolutely no substitute for water at any price.
Q: Investorideas.com
How do you see the global eating trends of organic, vegetarian and vegan impacting agriculture, for an example the growing shift from sugar to alternatives like stevia?
A: Steve Yuzpe of Sprott Resource Corp
The trend in wealthy countries is an increase in 'healthy diets' ... I think the themes of organic, hormone free, antibiotic free, nitrate free, grass fed, etc. are poised to gain mindshare of consumers, which should lead to investment opportunities.
Q: Investorideas.com
I have read that countries in the Middle East and China have bought up agricultural lands with water rights globally in anticipation of drought and bigger issues in food supplies from climate change. How will that impact the global picture long term?
A: Steve Yuzpe of Sprott Resource Corp
The counties you mention have to deal with the very real threats of food security and food inflation. The rise in commodity prices has already contributed to the overthrow of regimes in the Middle East and in the last 5-years has led to riots across from Bahrain all the way to Morocco and is driving up costs in China and India.
The way that water is priced and managed globally leads us to believe that localized water shortages are inevitable. As mentioned above, Canada is lucky that we have significant water resources.
Opportunities exist because agriculture is facing serious issues in the near and long-term. We will likely solve some of the issues we are facing, but I don’t see how we can solve them all.
The long-term impact is tough to predict. All over the world there has been a strong pushback against foreign buyers of farmland.
Q: Investorideas.com
Are you looking at South American opportunities and if so where? For example I published an article from another writer recently entitled “It’s a good time to buy land in Argentina”, based on falling coffee and sugar prices .
A: Steve Yuzpe of Sprott Resource Corp
We like certain jurisdictions in South America and would definitely avoid others. Our investment style considers geopolitical risk, currency risk, etc., in addition to return profile of the investment. For example, we have a large position in Union Agriculture Group, a large farming operation in Uruguay. We also have a large position in Stonegate Agricom, which has a phosphate deposit in Peru.
Q: Investorideas.com
What will be the driving force to get more investors into agriculture and water? Do you think like a lot of other sectors, that it will be event driven (water shortages, drought, and contamination) or simply pocket book related as prices rise?
A: Steve Yuzpe of Sprott Resource Corp
The agriculture segment is much smaller than other investment sectors. To bring more investors into the sector, we also need to build and develop more companies and products to invest in.
It could legitimately be from either event driven or market driven (inflation protection) event, but likely it is from a linked event. A geopolitical or production crisis (weather, etc.) would start prices to rise and fear and greed would exacerbate the price moves.
Q: Investorideas.com
Where do you think Canada fits into the global market?
A: Steve Yuzpe of Sprott Resource Corp
Long term, Canada has a very important role to play in primary food production ... a large arable land base, already a net exporter of production (with a small population, so little chance that production will be held back from export in a food crisis), significant water resources, geopolitical stability, infrastructure is in place, experienced farmers and a system of strong food safety standards.
About Steve Yuzpe, Chief Financial Officer
Mr. Yuzpe has over 10 years of financial administration management experience with public and private corporations. Over his career, Mr. Yuzpe has developed specific expertise in financial and internal reporting, strategic development and business planning, corporate governance, investor relations, regulatory compliance, treasury, financings and restructurings. Since 2009, Mr. Yuzpe has served as the Chief Financial Officer of Sprott Resource Corp., and is currently the chairman of One Earth Farms Corp., as well as a director of One Earth Oil and Gas Inc. Mr. Yuzpe has also been involved with Street Kids International, a charity focused on youth at risk, as the Treasurer, member of the Executive Committee and Board of Directors for more than 10 years. He was also a founding board member of Inroads to Agriculture Institute, an organization whose mission is to help Aboriginal people secure full time employment in the agricultural industry through training and employment support.

Mr. Yuzpe is also a Chartered Financial Analyst (CFA) charter holder.

Mining Stock Inception Mining (OTCQB:IMII) Reports Deal to ACQUIRE 16,000 NET ACRES in Getchell Trend Acreage, Adjacent to Turquoise Ridge Property-Joint Holding of Barrick (NYSE:ABX) and Newmont (NYSE:NEM)

SALT LAKE CITY, UTAH - September 17, 2013 (Investorideas.com Mining stocks newswire) Mining stock alert- Inception Mining Inc. (OTCQB: IMII) reported that it has entered into an agreement in principal with Crawford Cattle Company ("Crawford") to acquire over 16,000 net acres of mineral rights in Humboldt and Elko Counties, Nevada, approximately 70 miles north of Winnemucca, Nevada.  The acreage lies in or is adjacent to the historic Getchell Trend which is part of the property now under contract to be purchased.  Assuming the due diligence and other covenants are satisfied, the acquisition is expected to close no later than the second quarter 2014 of which there is no guarantee.

According to the Company's CEO, Michael Ahlin: "We believe the lands to be acquired are deemed highly prospective given their general location in the Getchell Trend. Specifically, we are under contract to acquire sections of lands that are adjacent to the Turquoise Ridge Property, the Pinson Mine and a lesser amount of acreage near the history Midas Gold Property.  The Turquoise Ridge Property is a joint holding of Barrick Gold Corporation (NYSE:ABX) and Newmont Mining Corporation (NYSE:NEM).”  At this stage, the Company has not determined or committed to a plan of development and is just now beginning its resource evaluation and long term potential.

The Company is focused on identifying certain historical mining claims that fit strict parameters of proven recoverable grades of minerals, minimal permitting issues, deeded or protected claims, access, acquisition costs that fit our profile and potential refining needs requiring minimal CAPEX or possible toll processing.  While the above potential acquisition is a departure from our stated objectives, the opportunity presented must be explored and evaluated as a possible addition to our portfolio of properties.

About Inception Mining Inc . (OTCQB: IMII) We are a mining exploration company engaged in the acquisition, exploration, and development of mineral properties, primarily for high grade gold deposits, from owned mining properties.  Our primary target properties are those that have been the subject of historical exploration and have supporting data. Most large visible surface gold mineralized prospects have been explored, mined. What remains are the smaller high-grade mines and prospects previously ignored. www.inceptionmining.com

Turquoise Ridge

The Turquoise Ridge property is located about 70 kilometres northeast of Winnemucca, Nevada, USA. Barrick is the operator and 75% owner of the mine with Newmont owning the remaining 25%.

Turquoise Ridge uses underhand cut-and-fill mining methods due to the relatively low rock quality in the ore zones. Ore is transported to Newmont's Twin Creeks mill for processing. The refractory gold ore is treated by pressure oxidation technology and gold is recovered using conventional carbon-in-leach technology.

In 2009, Turquoise Ridge's production totaled 177koz ounces of gold at total cash costs of $570 per ounce1. Proven and probable mineral reserves as of December 31, 2009 are estimated at 5.47moz of gold.

Navada Mining Stock Alert: INCEPTION MINING (OTCQB: IMII) Reports AGREEMENT WITH CRAWFORD CATTLE COMPANY TO ACQUIRE 16,000 NET ACRES OF MINERAL RIGHTS

SALT LAKE CITY, UTAH - September 16, 2013 (Investorideas.com Mining stocks newswire) Inception Mining Inc. (OTCQB: IMII) announced today that it has entered into an agreement in principal (the "Agreement") with Crawford Cattle Company ("Crawford") to acquire over 16,000 net acres of mineral rights in Humboldt and Elko Counties, Nevada, approximately 70 miles north of Winnemucca, Nevada.  The acreage lies in or is adjacent to the historic Getchell Trend which is part of the property now under contract to be purchased.  Assuming the due diligence and other covenants are satisfied, the acquisition is expected to close no later than the second quarter 2014 of which there is no guarantee.


According to the Company's CEO, Michael Ahlin:  “We believe the lands to be acquired are deemed highly prospective given their general location in the Getchell Trend.  Specifically, we are under contract to acquire sections of lands that are adjacent to the Turquoise Ridge Property, the Pinson Mine and a lesser amount of acreage near the history Midas Gold Property. The Turquoise Ridge Property is a joint holding of Barrick Gold Corporation (NYSE:ABX) and Newmont Mining Corporation (NYSE:NEM).”  At this stage, the Company has not determined or committed to a plan of development and is just now beginning its resource evaluation and long term potential.

The Company is focused on identifying certain historical mining claims that fit strict parameters of proven recoverable grades of minerals, minimal permitting issues, deeded or protected claims, access, acquisition costs that fit our profile and potential refining needs requiring minimal CAPEX or possible toll processing.  While the above potential acquisition is a departure from our stated objectives, the opportunity presented must be explored and evaluated as a possible addition to our portfolio of properties.

About Inception Mining Inc. (OTCQB: IMII) We are a mining exploration company engaged in the acquisition, exploration, and development of mineral properties, primarily for high grade gold deposits, from owned mining properties.  Our primary target properties are those that have been the subject of historical exploration and have supporting data. Most large visible surface gold mineralized prospects have been explored, mined. What remains are the smaller high-grade mines and prospects previously ignored. www.inceptionmining.com

Solar Stock XsunX, Inc. (OTCQB: XSNX) Update: 750 kW in Proposals Going Out - More Projects in Review

New York, NY, Point Roberts, WA - September 16, 2013 (Investorideas.com renewable energy newswire) Investorideas.com, an investor research portal specializing in investing ideas in leading sectors including renewable energy stocks, issues a corporate and industry update for solar stock, XsunX, Inc. (OTCQB: XSNX), entitled 750 kW in Proposals Going Out - More Projects in Review.

Tom M. Djokovich, CEO of XsunX, Inc. (OTCQB: XSNX) said in the corporate/ industry update:”
At the start of the month, we outlined how September's marketing and sales efforts would focus on supporting and meeting with prospective customers for our CIGS manufacturing technology, and that we would be responding to solar power system development quote requests for commercial and utility scale projects.”
Continued...
So far, September has been busy in a very good way. Progress filling our solar power system development sales pipeline is picking up steam very nicely with three projects totaling nearly 750 kW (about ¾ of a megawatt) for commercial and industrial projects now in the proposal stage - exciting stuff.
There are more projects pending that we have been asked to bid on as they become ready for the engineering, systems procurement, and the construction phase. Additionally, in an effort to try to develop as much sales opportunity as possible, we are not just waiting on projects to come our way, but have also begun reaching out to land owners we know to offer free solar development feasibility assessments of properties they hold.
On the CIGS manufacturing equipment side of operations, we have an on-site meeting with an African based client scheduled for this week, and last Thursday we delivered to a Caribbean based client an extensive package of specifications and financial benefit outlines they requested to allow them to better qualify for government support in their region.
Overall, our expansion into solar project construction and development has started with strong momentum and we are excited about the opportunity to grow sales and operations through these new efforts. With USA solar installation up over 30% in the first quarter and increasing another 15% in the second quarter, our focus is to use the increase in awareness of solar's affordability to load the sales pipeline with commercial, industrial, and utility scale projects.

Mobile Security and Biometrics Sector Snapshot: AAPL, NXTD

New York, NY - September 16, 2013 (www.investorideas.com newswire) Investorideas.com, an investor research portal specializing in investor research in leading sectors, issues commentary on the mobile security sector . Frost & Sullivan’s Global Program Director, ICT in Financial Services, Jean-Noel Georges and Alan Goode, Managing Director from Goode Intelligence share insight into the rapidly changing sector and comment on Apple’s (AAPL) recent implementation of fingerprint biometrics.

Additionally the CEO of an industry newcomer NXT-ID, Inc. ( OTCQB: NXTD), shares his perspective on the future of biometrics for identification and verification.
Last year Goode Intelligence predicted that mobile biometric security would move from "an interesting concept” to a "must-have” feature for all smart mobile devices (SMDs) His predictions have come to fruition.
Alan Goode, Managing Director of GoodeIntelligence.com recently shared his insight with Investorideas.com telling us, "I believe that the main driver for adoption of biometrics into consumer electronic devices is the mass adoption of smart mobile devices and the challenges this poses for strong authentication and identity verification - in other words how do we securely prove identity on a mobile device without affecting the user experience. Passcodes and One-Time-Passwords are not the most convenient way to prove identity on a mobile device, especially when we are on the move. As more and more of our daily lives are being managed by these devices, having to authenticate using technology that was designed for a personal computer and a keyboard is becoming undesirable. "
"What Apple ( AAPL ) has done with Touch ID is to improve the usability of identity verification on mobile devices - to make it more convenient. "
He also sees biometrics playing a key role in other technology, saying "There is a move to make authentication and identity verification on mobile devices more convenient and biometrics can provide a solution to this. This includes many biometric modalities including fingerprint, voice, facial and eye verification technologies. We predict that we shall see a marked increase in consumer technology supporting biometric authentication. Not just mobile phones, but smart TVs, games consoles, cars and wearable technology. Take a look at the latest Xbox console, Xbox one - it supports voice and facial recognition. Multi-factor biometric authentication can support many endpoints and ensure that we have a continuous experience when we switch between endpoints (NOTE: Take a look at this video from Nuance for a glimpse into what can happen with cross-platform voice recognition.” (http://venturebeat.com/2013/09/08/how-nuance-tapped-the-cloud-to-bring-voice-recognition-to-mobile/).
Mr. Gino M. Pereira, Chief Executive Officer of NXT-ID, Inc. ( OTCQB: NXTD said "Over the past couple of years it has become apparent that simple password protection is not sufficient in today's increasingly sophisticated hacking world. Now giants such as Apple ( AAPL ) and Google ( GOOG) are publically saying so. The next few years will see increasing usage of all different forms of biometrics for identification and verification. One day somewhere in the future we will seamlessly have access to our homes, cars, computers and other devices simply by being in proximity to them and being recognized biometrically. It will be simple, seemless and more secure "
NXT-ID is launching an advanced MobileBio™ technology that secures consumers' platforms via innovative authentication and encryption.
The first product the company is launching later this year is the Wocket™, a unique technology with a very different approach to payment security. Instead of replacing the wallet, they are aiming to improve upon it. The Wocket™ reduces the number of cards in your wallet while supports virtually every payment method currently available at Point-of-Sale (POS) at retailers around the world including magnetic stripe, EMV/NFC and barcode…all within a secure vault within a wallet.
Analyst Jean-Noel George from Frost & Sullivan recently said, "Protecting the mobile device itself is a first step, necessary to secure mobile payments. Although a personal identification number (PIN) can do the job, in 2011 more than 60 percent of smartphone users were not using a PIN to protect their mobile access. "
"The time is now right for biometric technology to emerge as a secure solution for mobile applications that require high levels of security, particularly payment," said Mr. Georges. "From a pure-payment security point of view, biometrics has already delivered significant advantages."
Investorideas.com asked him how long he thinks it will take for NFC or touchless payments to be in widespread use for payments in the US and what percentage of credit card holders in the US currently use NFC to make payments and how does he see that number changing over the next 5 years ?
He noted. " For the payment industry, the US market moved directly from magnetic stripe payment card to contactless payment cards. The infrastructure (POS, ATM) are being changed to accept contactless payment cards in the US. Major industry players (financial institutions, MNOs, OEM handset vendors,...) are deeply involved in the NFC technology. We can also add ISIS as a perfect driver for a US massive roll out. But the reality is different, and having NFC capabilities on your smartphone, does not automatically generate end user massive adoption and usages. I do not see NFC in the US as an important means of payment before 2015. "
"If you are back to the means of payment industry, it took 2 decades in Europe to move from cash/coins to EMV card payment. In the US, it will take time for the end user to move from the well known bank card to a NFC mobile payment. "
In discussing how the wallet war shifting to an MPOS war he said, " Many players already entered to the wallet war (software vendors, banks, financial institutions, ...) without a real leader. I can see the same business orientation coming to the mPOS. Many players are entering to this market with a plethora of solutions, but at the moment none took the lead. For SMB and SME, there is a real value added to use mPOS instead of traditional POS hardware. They just need to add a small add-on (most of the time for free) and they will be charged a little more than traditional fees but only based on their sales. Some business models have fixed fees based on your sales amount. So you have to pay even when you did not sale anything, which I s not comfortable for the retailer. The platform to be used is your own device (smartphone and/or tablet).
Commenting on Apple's ( AAPL ) recent acquisition of Authen Tec fingerprint biometric technology Jean-Noel said, " As I said, fingerprint recognition made lot of progress in terms of quality, speed and of price (as finger print readers were not doing perfect recognition. New ones are doing several pictures of your finger to obtain a better result). Apple just confirmed the rumors were referring to. The quality level of fingerprint technology reached a sufficient level at that time. So I don't think that a multimodal solution for basic application will be a major trend in a short time. I heard about Validity Sensors Inc doing the same."
In terms of industry growth he told us . " We are forecasting for Europe a €151 billion in 2017, and €502 billion in 2017 globally. Once again, mobile payment included for us, SMS, USSD, online payment, NFC, P2P and cloud based payment. I can see that Identity Access Management (IAM) is one of the biggest growth opportunities for the security mobile industry. We are forecasting 1.14 billions smartphone devices in 2017 with associated revenue of $371 billion. "
Noting key trends for investors following the mobile payment and mobile security space he commented, " IAM will be key for mobile security. I saw that to overpass the lack of adoption and the complex ecosystem, many players are using cloud based credential for payment. Cloud solutions for payment are definitively a trend to follow. You have cost efficiency, easy to use and a sufficient security level. Cloud will be strategic in the future. Apple already mentioned that biometric data will not be stored on the cloud....but for how long?"

Medical Technology Breaking News: Aethlon Medical (OTCQB: AEMD) Announces Dr. Douglas Taylor as Chief Scientific Officer of Exosome Sciences, Inc.

SAN DIEGO - September 13, 2013 (Investorideas.com newswire) Aethlon Medical, Inc. (OTCBB:AEMD), announced today that Dr. Douglas Taylor has accepted the position of Chief Scientific Officer at Exosome Sciences, Inc. (ESI), a wholly owned diagnostic subsidiary of Aethlon Medical. Dr. Taylor is credited with the discovery of tumor-secreted exosomes and is a leading published author on the topic. "We are truly honored that Dr. Taylor has agreed to lead our research endeavors at Exosome Sciences. His pioneering research has been instrumental in establishing an industry for exosome-based diagnostics and therapeutics," stated Aethlon Chairman and CEO, Jim Joyce. The news was first reported through a presentation given by Mr. Joyce at the Exosomes & Circulating Biomarkers 2013 Summit. Mr. Joyce's presentation occurred after the close of market hours on September 12th.

Aethlon Medical develops therapeutic devices to address unmet medical needs in cancer, infectious disease, and other life-threatening conditions. The Company is preparing to launch the first U.S. studies of the Aethlon Hemopurifier® as a therapy to address hepatitis c virus (HCV) based on the recent approval of an Investigational Device Exemption (IDE) by the United States Food and Drug Administration (FDA). The Hemopurifier® is a first-in-class device that targets the rapid elimination of viruses and cancer glycopathogens, including disease-promoting exosomes from circulation.
Exosome Sciences was established by Aethlon to pursue exosome-based strategies to diagnose and monitor the progression of cancer, infectious disease and other life-threatening conditions. ESI's lead product, an Enzyme Linked Lectin Specific Assay (ELLSA) has been validated to identify the presence of exosomes underlying the human immunodeficiency virus (HIV), tuberculosis (TB), and various forms of cancer, including ovarian, melanoma, breast, lymphoma, and colorectal.
Dr. Taylor stated, "I am extremely excited about joining Exosome Sciences as their Chief Scientific Officer. I have been pioneering the field of exosome biology for more than 35 years and believe that exosomes represent the ideal disease marker due to their stability in the peripheral circulation and ability to be multiplexed. Exosome-based diagnostics will not only be used in identification and management of a variety of cancers, but also in other pathologies such as viral infections, pregnancy complications, birth defects, cardiovascular and neurodegenerative diseases. No other platform exhibits their potential for patient stratification and real-time monitoring of therapeutic responses. I have a long history of collaboration with scientists at Aethlon Medical and this opportunity will expand that interaction to bring ELLSA based assays to the clinic."
The release of exosomes by viable cells has been demonstrated in multiple cell types and systems. These nano-sized vesicles are detectable in biologic fluids, including blood, urine, ascites, and pleural fluids. They are essential mediators of normal homeostasis, based on their role in intercellular communication via surface interactions and transfer of macromolecules between cells. Cell injury or transformation is associated with alterations in the cell's exosome production and composition of these exosomes. This aberrant exosome composition can be utilized as surrogate markers of specific disease pathologies. The ESI mission is to advance an exosome-based biomarker platform to diagnose a broad-spectrum of disease conditions as well as monitor disease progression/regression in response to therapy as a means to improve patient management and outcomes. In the oncology field, ESI products will also be positioned to serve as companion diagnostics that determine when to initiate Hemopurifier® therapy or provide real-time monitoring of tumor responses to Hemopurifier® therapy.
About Dr. Taylor
Dr. Taylor discovered and pioneered the field of exosome biology and their role in intercellular communication and immune regulation. He has been in the Department of Obstetrics, Gynecology and Women's Health at the University of Louisville School of Medicine since 1992. Dr. Taylor published the initial article describing circulating tumor exosomes/microvesicles in 1979 (Anal. Biochem. 98:53-59, 1979). The research in his laboratory has primarily focused on the release and consequences of exosomes from gynecologic cancer and lung tumors. Over the past 30+ years, Dr Taylor has pioneered the isolation and characterization of circulating tumor-derived exosomes. His work has focused on characterization of circulating exosomes released by tumor cells for their role in immune regulation and induction of a pro-inflammatory tumor microenvironment. His work has demonstrated that the presence of specific circulating exosomal components have potential use as biomarkers for cancer patients.

Apple's (AAPL) Adoption of Biometric Fingerprint Technology Will Play a Key Role in Changing Future of Mobile Security

New York, NY - September 12, 2013 (www.investorideas.com newswire) Investorideas.com, an investor research portal specializing in investing ideas in leading sectors including biometric and mobile security stocks issues a snapshot on key developments in the sector. Apple's (NASDAQ:AAPL) new iPhone 5s launch has everyone talking about biometrics and mobile security.

Apple reported "iPhone 5s introduces Touch ID, an innovative way to simply and securely unlock your iPhone with just the touch of a finger. Built into the home button, Touch ID uses a laser cut sapphire crystal, together with the capacitive touch sensor, to take a high-resolution image of your fingerprint and intelligently analyze it to provide accurate readings from any angle. Setting up Touch ID to recognize your fingerprint is easy, and every time you use it, it gets better. The Touch ID sensor recognizes the touch of a finger so the sensor is only activated when needed, preserving battery life. All fingerprint information is encrypted and stored securely in the Secure Enclave inside the A7 chip on the iPhone 5s; it’s never stored on Apple servers or backed up to iCloud®. Touch ID can also be used as a secure way to approve purchases from the iTunes Store®, App Store or iBooks Store."
Gartner Research projects worldwide mobile payment transactions will exceed $235 billion in 2013, reaching $721 billion in annual transactions with more than 450 million users by 2017. That creates a big opportunity for companies in the mobile security space.
Apple (NASDAQ:AAPL), always known as first to market and an innovator, apparently plans to integrate the fingerprint scanners into the iPhone 6 to address consumer concerns over mobile payment security.
How significant is the biometrics acquisition for Apple? Wells Fargo analyst raised its forecast for Apple based on the biometrics integration.
"We believe investors may be under- appreciating Apple's (NASDAQ:AAPL) Authentec acquisition--specifically the ability to perform secure device-side authentication, which could help open up the mCommerce market and further penetrate the enterprise market," said Wells Fargo analyst Maynard Um.
NXT-ID, Inc. (OTCQB: NXTD), a new player on the scene in payment security, is launching the Wocket this fall; a unique technology takes a very different approach: Instead of replacing the wallet, they are improving it! The Wocket™ reduces the number of cards in a consumer's wallet while supporting virtually every payment method currently available at Point-of-Sale (POS) at retailers around the world including magnetic stripe, EMV/NFC and barcode…all within a secure vault within a wallet. The company then plans to roll out a full suite of MobileBio™ technologies for mobile applications including its 3D Facial recognition technology.
NXT-ID, Inc.'s MobileBio™ facematch™ is a modular facial recognition platform technology that can be applied to a variety of platforms including smartphones, tablets, laptops and desktop computers. Depending on the number of cameras available and level of security desired, facematch™ will use 2D, pseudo 3D or 3D facial recognition algorithms to allow the user access to their device, data, or door. facematch™ supports both 3D and 2D camera devices, supporting various applications such as adding access control to a door or prison to adding superior authentication and/or encryption to a mobile device.
Samsung (KSE:oo5930) is also rumored to be integrating biometrics fingerprint technology in their smartphones and related devices. Samsung previously launched its biometric Face Unlock feature for Galaxy but the technology was easily fooled by photos from its users.
Precise Biometrics AB (PREC) recently had a big run following news of its deal with Fingerprint Cards. Precise Biometrics AB and Fingerprint Cards AB (FPC) announced they have entered into an agreement where FPC will license Precise Biometrics' fingerprint algorithm to further enhance the performance of FPC world leading capacitive sensors. FPC will bundle the algorithm into existing sensor products, primarily targeting mobile phones and tablets. The bundle will further enhance the performance of FPC sensors in terms of accuracy and speed which are important criteria especially in the fast growing mobile and tablet markets.
If Apple integrates biometrics successfully, the world as always, will follow and the race will be on for the search for the best and most secure biometrics technology for mobile users.

Medical Technology Breaking News: Aethlon Medical (OTCQB: AEMD) Announces Launch of Exosome Sciences Subsidiary

SAN DIEGO - September 12, 2013 (Investorideas.com newswire) Aethlon Medical, Inc. (OTCBB:AEMD), today announced the formal launch of Exosome Sciences, Inc. (ESI), a wholly-owned subsidiary previously established by Aethlon to pursue exosome-based strategies to diagnose and monitor the progression of cancer, infectious disease and other life-threatening conditions. Exosomes produced by diseased cells represent an optimal diagnostic target as they are shed into bodily fluids such as urine and blood where they can be easily accessed. Exosomes transport specific disease-origin markers that provide the basis for ESI to establish non-invasive liquid biopsies to diagnose and monitor a wide-range of disease conditions.

Aethlon Chairman and CEO, Jim Joyce stated, "As a therapeutic organization, our primary focus is the clinical advancement and future commercialization of the Aethlon Hemopurifer® in the United States and abroad. With this mind, our objective with ESI is to transform a currently dormant and unvalued diagnostic asset into a stand-alone organization that contributes measurable asset value to Aethlon shareholders, yet does not dilute our team's focus away from advancing first-in-class therapeutic devices. It also became clear that the launch of ESI might allow us to leverage recent valuations that have been awarded to molecular diagnostic organizations with novel technology strategies."
Aethlon disclosed that ESI's research facility is being established within a CLIA certified laboratory located in Langhorne, Pennsylvania. The facility is adjacent to the Philadelphia/New Jersey I-95 corridor, which is the home for numerous U.S. biopharmaceutical organizations, including Merck and Johnson & Johnson. The introduction of key ESI researchers who will lead the development and commercialization of next-generation diagnostics will occur through follow-on disclosures.
At present, Aethlon is preparing to launch the first U.S. studies of the Hemopurifier® as a therapy to address hepatitis c virus (HCV) based on the recent approval of an Investigational Device Exemption (IDE) by the United States Food and Drug Administration (FDA). The Hemopurifier is a first-in-class device that targets the rapid elimination of infectious disease and cancer glycopathogens, including exosomes from circulation. Exosomes enhance disease progression of viral infections and in cancer trigger apoptosis of immune cells and have been reported to facilitate tumor growth, metastasis, and the development of drug resistance.
Aethlon will contribute diagnostic related technology to ESI, including the Enzyme Linked Lectin Specific Assay (ELLSA), which has been validated to identify the presence of exosomes underlying the human immunodeficiency virus (HIV), tuberculosis (TB), and various forms of cancer, including ovarian, melanoma, breast, lymphoma, and colorectal. ELLSA was originally created by Aethlon researchers as a tool to help validate the ability of the Hemopurifier® to capture tumor-secreted exosomes. At the time, effective tools to isolate and quantify exosomes did not exist as few labs conducted exosome research. Since then, an increased understanding of the role of exosomes underlying a wide-range of disease conditions has created a demand for related diagnostic products. As part of the relationship, ESI has agreed to assign any therapeutic related discoveries back to Aethlon Medical. Beyond the potential for future technology advances by ESI researchers, ESI may also in-license related diagnostic IP from collaborative research partners.
The release of exosomes by viable cells has been demonstrated in multiple cell types and systems. These nano-sized vesicles are detectable in biologic fluids, including blood, urine, ascites, and pleural fluids. They are essential mediators of normal homeostasis, based on their role in intercellular communication via surface interactions and transfer of macromolecules between cells. Cell injury or transformation is associated with alterations in the cell's exosome production and composition of these exosomes. This aberrant exosome composition can be utilized as surrogate markers of specific disease pathologies. The ESI mission is to advance an exosome-based biomarker platform to diagnose a broad-spectrum of disease conditions as well as monitor disease progression/regression in response to therapy as a means to improve patient management and outcomes. In the oncology field, ESI products will also be positioned to serve as companion diagnostics that determine when to initiate Hemopurifier® therapy or provide real-time monitoring of tumor responses to Hemopurifier® therapy.
