RecFaces, a provider of advanced facial biometric software, announces the release of its new white paper titled - 'Facial Recognition Systems in Securing Critical Infrastructure'.  

The white paper delves into the fundamentals of securing critical infrastructure, which encompasses everything, from perimeter monitoring and access control to video surveillance and beyond.

Facial recognition technology

With increasing digitisation, the Internet of Things, and biometric technology advancements, finding the right security modality requires deep thought. Facial recognition technology has emerged as a front-runner in this regard, owing to its precision, universality, and unique capabilities. 

This newly released white paper is an effort towards building a roadmap for strengthening the security ecosystems across sectors through the increased adoption of Facial Recognition Systems (FRS). 

Key highlights

Some of the key takeaways from the white paper are:

  • Accurate Identification: FRS ensures precise identification of individuals, enabling proactive threat mitigation and effective resource allocation. 
  • Efficient Physical Access Control: By seamlessly integrating with access control systems, FRS facilitates streamlined and secure access to critical infrastructure facilities, reducing vulnerabilities and unauthorised entries. 
  • Safeguarding Public Data: FRS enhances data security by implementing robust authentication checks, threat detection, and preventing unauthorised access or breaches. 
  • Imperceptible Constraints: Unlike traditional security measures, FRS is not limited by proximity constraints, hence, preserving user convenience and optimising operational efficiency, while maintaining stringent security protocols. 

Biometric identification

Through compelling case studies, the white paper showcases how FRS has significantly bolstered security levels in critical infrastructure settings. Citing one such case, it highlights how biometric identification, powered by highly precise facial recognition algorithms, augmented security measures in a data centre. 

Critical infrastructure is the greatest asset for the acceleration of economies. Without it, there cannot be stable growth. This white paper talks about FRS as the catalyst for fighting out the vulnerabilities that different sectors in critical infrastructure face,” said Sukrit Varma, Global Marketing Partner, at RecFaces.
