About Aware, Inc. - Common Stock Company overview from Wikipedia

05 · wikidata

Aware, Inc. is a biometrics software and services company based near Boston, Massachusetts.

## History

Aware was incorporated in 1986 in Cambridge, Massachusetts at which time it was envisioned by its founders as a "mathematical engineering company".
