Biometrics are the measurable factors related to human characteristics. Biometric access control systems utilize unique physiological reference points to identify an individual; this could include a fingerprint, iris pattern, facial features, or DNA make-up. The identifiable characteristic data is mostly associated with security because biometric traits provide a higher, more secure level of authentication, where special characteristics are unique to the individual.
A traditional access card or tag could be given to someone else, lost, cloned, or stolen. Biometric data is exceptionally difficult to replicate, making it an attractive choice for high security access control systems.
Identification using biometric characteristics is preferred over traditional passwords and PIN-based methods for various reasons. For example, a person is required to be physically present at the time of identification, preventing an unauthorized person using another person’s valid card or fob to gain access to a restricted area. Identification based on biometric fingerprint scanning eradicates the need to remember a password or carry a secondary credential such as a card or fob. This means the risk of theft of cards or fobs and the need for costly replacements are eliminated.
Simply put, by using advanced image analyzing sensors, ievo readers take a detailed scan of your finger from the surface and subsurface levels of the skin, to capture a highly accurate digital image. Specific data from the image is converted into a unique digital template. This template is subsequently used for fingerprint identification. Providing a user presents a finger that matches a stored template, access will be granted and/or recorded. Moreover, the methods that ievo readers use to capture fingerprint data in template format cannot be reverse engineered to replicate your actual fingerprint. As a further additional layer of security, the ievo readers don’t store any of the template data, so in the event of theft or vandalism, fingerprints remain protected.
Facial recognition technology uses special cameras to analyze faces and create a digital representation or faceprint that is unique to each individual. The faceprint is then compared to the existing faces in the database to see if the person is recognized or not. As computing power has advanced in the last two decades, facial recognition has become commonplace in our lives. In airports, casinos, retail stores, and even in our mobile phones, facial recognition technology is analyzing our features.
As an extremely fast, highly reliable, and fully touchless solution, facial recognition is ideal for access control in businesses, public buildings, and high security environments like banks and financial institutions.
