Biometric Integration
Biometrics are best defined as measurable physiological and / or behavioral characteristics
that can be used to verify the identity of an individual.
These include fingerprint, iris scanning, hand geometry, facial recognition
and other techniques.
The value proposition for Biometric readers in access control is simple: a card
can be duplicated or stolen, but a unique physiological characteristic cannot. Biometrics
enable access control systems to ask not only, “What do you have?” and “What do
you know?” but, “Who are you?”
As a result, biometrics are taking an increasingly prominent position as an additional
access control solution in today’s escalating requirements for physical security.
Our Symmetry Access Control and Security Management systems are at the forefront
of integrating these technologies as a seamless first line of defense. Supporting
a variety of biometric technologies, our systems are pre-integrated to allow quick and easy deployment and management
of iris, facial and fingerprint scanning as well
as hand geometry options.
Utilizing Microsoft’s® SQL Server database we give true scaleable enterprise
solutions capable of supporting high volumes of transactions and large numbers of connections.
