Introduction to biometrics 27 July 2005 Budapest, 27 July, 2005 - The term “biometrics” is derived from the Greek words “bios” and “metron,” and translates as “life measurement” (ROOD AND HORNAK 2003). According to the NATIONAL INSTITUTE OF STANDARDS AND TECHNOLOGY (2003), biometrics in the sense used today in information technology refers to the automatic recognition of a person based on physiological or behavioural characteristics. The use of biometric characteristics for identification is not an innovation, only the technology used for its automation.

Biometrics first became a distinct field of study when...

Risk of anti-globalization 20 July 2005 Budapest, 20 July, 2005 - Participants of the Davos summit are well acquainted with the sensible arguments in favor of globalization. The freer movement of goods, capital, and labor has led to vast improvements in living standards, especially those of poor people in emerging countries. Those countries that have not participated in globalization have seen stagnant or declining living standards, more corruption, vast differences between rich and poor, and often violent and repressive regimes. Yet not everyone in the world is convinced. Many voices in and out of government have spoken loudly against globalization. Their criticism has...

Deloitte Survey on SOX Compliance in Hungary Released 01 June 2005 Budapest, June 1, 2005 - “Creative” book-keeping, interlocking, corrupt practices - phrases all well known in today's business world. According to a recent survey conducted by Deloitte to get the opinion of Hungarian CFOs about Sarbanes-Oxley (SOX) compliance, the positive effects of SOX are increasing transparency, improvement of internal processes and the less opportunity for human errors and fraud.

Deloitte's statement on the Postabank Case 31 May 2005 We are at a loss to understand the May 31, 2005, judgment in the Postabank case. Once we have received and studied the written first instance judgment, it is our firm opinion that we will appeal against it as Deloitte conducted the respective audits of Postabank with due care, professionalism and in accordance with the relevant domestic and international standards and laws.
As far as the size of the damage is concerned, it is too early to speculate, especially since the judge not only did not quantify it at this stage but also ruled that the parties sould share the damage, if there was any damage at all. It is inappropriate to comment...

Work starts at the new offices in Dózsa György út in the morning of 9th May, Monday. It is not by chance that the company's choice fell on the Museum Atrium wing of the Park Atrium building complex designed by Erick van Egeraat and his team. Both its outstanding quality and architectural design make the building singular in the office market. A three-story garage for 120 cars is situated below...
