Different Strategy. Better Solution.
The Aegis automated biometric identification system (ABIS) is a fully-featured, enterprise-grade ABIS suitable for defense, homeland security, law enforcement, and civil identification programs.
Unlike the rigid, one-size-fits-all solutions that have been on the market for decades, Athena Sciences's Aegis is optimized for cloud deployment and flexible to an organization’s changing needs.
- No costly hardware required, just an HTML5-compatible browser
- Select matching algorithms best-suited for your use cases
- Rapidly deploy new matching technology
- Tailor workflows and transaction routing to your procedures

Wield Powerful Examination Tools
Athena’s Themis™ software empowers examiners with the same robust, multimodal toolkit deployed to U.S. and foreign agencies since 2018. Seamless integration into AEGIS eliminates the need for multiple ABIS applications or expensive workstations.
Like Aegis, Themis is matching vendor agnostic, meaning organizations can change biometric matching algorithms without disturbing forensic examination operations.
- Examine finger, latent, iris, face, and other image-based biometrics
- UI/UX refined in collaboration with experienced examiners
- Follows ACE-V and FISWG
- Case Manager and Examination Queues organize and prioritize workloads
