Alcatraz AI, the globally renowned company in physical security technologies, has announced that they will be showcasing their autonomous access control technology, the Rock, at Data Center World 2022 exhibition, at Booth 1025.

The Rock, access control solution

Alcatraz AI offers a touchless and secure biometric device, the Rock, which utilises facial authentication to grant safe and efficient entry, so as to modernise and improve access control systems. The Data Center World 2022 security conference will be taking place at the Austin Convention Center in Austin, Texas, USA, from March 28 to March 31, 2022.

This is Alcatraz AI’s first time attending the conference. Alcatraz AI was also recently announced as a finalist for the 2022 Data Center World Startup Challenge. The Startup Challenge is recognising startups that are revolutionising the IT community and impacting the data center.

Data Center World

Data Center World delivers expert strategy and insight on the technologies and concepts needed to know to plan, manage, and optimise the data centre. Alcatraz AI will be showcasing its product, the Rock, which deploys autonomous access control through facial authentication technology, incorporating artificial intelligence (AI), data analytics, and the individuality of the human face to make spaces safer for all.

With features like multi-factor authentication, identity verification, tailgating detection, and video at the door, the Rock makes it easy for companies to secure spaces and data centres.

Dual-factor authentication access control

The Alcatraz AI technology delivers dual-factor authentication access control that helps data centres deploy the critical protection required to secure data. With 3D facial mapping and deep neural networks, the Rock can authenticate users in real-time and helps ensure the safety of employees, intellectual property, and valuable assets.

Alcatraz AI will also be showcasing its updated Administration and Management Platform at Data Center World 2022 event. V2 provides simplified installation on customer-provided infrastructure and simplified system upgrades and troubleshooting tools, improving the user experience in all aspects of installing and upgrading the Rock.

Alcatraz AI’s facial authentication technology

Although the Alcatraz Platform and the Rock are access control system agnostic and do not require a low-level software integration, the new platform provides the necessary interface for deeper software integrations and enables enterprise features, such as Single Sign On (SSO) with support for OAuth2 and SAML.

Alcatraz AI’s facial authentication technology provides constant identity verification critical when adopting Zero Trust environments, keeping assets at your data centres secure,” said Tina D’Agostin, the Chief Executive Officer (CEO) of Alcatraz AI, adding “We are excited to showcase our enterprise-grade access control solutions at Data Center World for the first time.
