Axis Pens New Vendor Partnership With Facial Recognition Provider

Alcatraz AI, an autonomous access control vendor, announced that it has become an Axis Communications technology integration partner to provide the former with its facial recognition authentication system.

“The Alcatraz AI Rock is a modern facial authentication solution that works natively with Axis Communications access control systems and door controllers to use a person’s face as their credential to quickly and privately authenticate users at the point of entry,” said an Alcatraz AI press release. “Together Axis and Alcatraz deliver secure rapid authentication as a single-factor solution or access at the speed of single factor when used as part of a multi-factor system. The Rock’s intelligent tailgate detection can send alerts and actionable insights to Axis’ access control management software to reduce the threat of a breach due to tailgating and support compliance in zero trust environments.”
