DigitalPersona has announced that multiple KFC restaurants owned by the chain’s franchisees are improving their loss prevention programs with fingerprint biometrics.

The new solution at the franchises across the Midwest and Southeast are replacing PIN-based authentication system with biometrics in an effort to reduce payroll fraud due to buddy-punching and bogus transactions at the register due to individuals being held directly accountable for their actions on a register.

Officials from both of the franchises implementing the new technology, West Quality Food Service and KBP Foods, have reported reductions in payroll and food costs due to the new systems.
