COVID has caused a lot of changes across practically all industries. While users may be familiar with broader changes to management and remote work, they may not know about the changes to security protocols. Alcatraz AI has been hard at work enhancing access control security in light of all post-COVID issues.
 
With a few key improvements, it is confident that their security systems can properly protect organisations without sacrificing efficiency or enabling the spread of harmful pathogens. Continue reading to see the many ways this access control system company is improving security practices post-COVID, from touchless interaction to mask enforcement.

Frictionless interaction

The first step to enhancing access control security post-COVID was to make the system as touchless as possible to reduce germ spread. Advanced, three-dimensional facial authentication technology allows for access control where users hardly need to touch anything since users’ faces are their credentials. 

Mask enforcement

Tailgating is any time a person attempts to gain entrance through another person's authorisation

Social distancing is a key way to enhance access control security post-COVID. This access control system company has allowed companies to enforce this through tailgating detection.

Tailgating is any time a person attempts to gain entrance through another person's authorisation. Alcatraz AI's tailgating security intelligence will alert local admin depending on users' preferences, so they can make sure only authorised users gain access.

Streamlined functioning

Enhancing access control security post-Covid means making processes smooth while equally as effective. Through the power of artificial intelligence, this is possible through what Alcatraz AI calls autonomous access control. Essentially, autonomous control allows the system to run itself.

Through complex algorithms and machine learning, the system can observe the building and users and adapt to make this smoother for them. When trustworthy users are present, security protocols can be relaxed to allow them through quickly. The system only cracks down when unauthorised personnel is nearby. Since the system can do this all on its own, it remains entirely touchless, crucial in the post-COVID era.

Privacy guaranteed

Users can rest easy knowing their data won’t be falling into the wrong hands

One of the biggest developments post-COVID has been the desire for greater privacy in complex electronic systems. So, when this access control system company set out to enhance security, Alcatraz AI made it a top priority to protect users’ privacy in the process. 

It has done that through complex end-to-end encryption of all the data as well as the option to keep it all off the cloud. So, data won’t be accessible to other users or hackers unless they can break through its powerful encryption methods, which is incredibly unlikely. Users can rest easy knowing their data won’t be falling into the wrong hands.

Mask intelligence

Face masks may still be around for the foreseeable future. Therefore, Alcatraz AI wanted its efforts of enhancing access control security to be able to work with masks.

It has achieved this through Mask Intelligence. Alcatraz AI's face authentication system scans users’ faces and ensures that they then put their masks on before entering the secured area. 

Unified, efficient results

This access control system company is doing everything it can to make post-COVID security tough while flexible to account for industries’ needs. To that end, it is enhancing their access control security with many tools, including touchless navigation, tailgating patrol, and mask intelligence to directly minimise potential pathogen spread.

As a bonus, the system can work autonomously and keep users’ privacy in mind. The system gets to be optimised without compromising disease prevention or lockdown efforts.
