Prevent attendance fraud with authorized devices and security controls

Ensure that employees clock in from their genuine, registered mobile devices or approved kiosk stations, preventing proxy clocking and buddy punching.

Guarantee attendance integrity without invasive surveillance

Buddy punching — when one employee clocks in on behalf of an absent colleague — is a persistent headache in shift environments and mobile teams. Simple password systems are easily shared among coworkers.

Jornadapp binds each employee profile to their verified hardware device using cryptographic device fingerprints, ensuring attendance events originate from the legitimate employee device without storing sensitive biometric templates on company servers.

Key operational benefits

Device binding

Register authorized employee smartphones; prevent clock-ins from unknown or unauthorized devices.

Biometric unlock verification

Leverage device-native Face ID and fingerprint sensors to verify the users identity before clocking.

Change approval workflow

When a worker switches phones, administrators must authorize the new device before clocking is permitted.

Audit-ready proof

Each attendance record stores cryptographic proof of the authorized device and verification method.

Where device authorization is essential

  • Preventing employees from sharing credentials to clock in for absent or tardy colleagues.
  • Securing mobile clock-ins for remote workers without requiring invasive desktop webcam monitoring.
  • Ensuring on-site shared kiosks cannot be spoofed by copying digital tokens or QR codes.
  • Providing ironclad proof of attendance integrity during formal employment disputes.

How to get started

Enable device authorization

Activate the device binding security policy in company settings.

First-time registration

When an employee logs into the mobile app, their device hardware token is registered.

Block unauthorized access

Any clock-in attempted from an unapproved phone is blocked and flagged to management.

Frequently asked questions

Does Jornadapp store employee fingerprint or facial recognition data on its servers?

No. Biometric verification is performed locally by the devices secure enclave (Apple Secure Enclave or Android Keystore). Only a cryptographic validation token is sent to our servers, fully complying with GDPR.

What happens when an employee replaces their smartphone?

The employee submits a device change request from the new phone, which a supervisor approves in the management panel.

Can an employee be authorized on more than one device?

Administrators can configure whether workers are limited to a single device or permitted on a backup tablet as well.
