Alcatraz AI, a provider of autonomous access control solutions, announced the addition of web–based mobile enrollment and privacy consent management to its flagship facial authentication product, the Rock.

Now, organizations worldwide can eliminate friction from the access control registration process by enabling secure mass or individual enrollment. New or current employees and visitors can enroll from anywhere in seconds, through their own mobile device or tablet.

Alcatraz AI’s web-based mobile enrollment enables administrators to send a link or QR code to any new employee, allowing them to enroll in the organization’s access control system before their first day, providing a seamless on-boarding experience.

The company’s privacy consent management allows organizations to send their privacy policies and consent forms directly to individual employees so that they can read, understand and opt-in or out of the use of their biometric data, understand the purposes for which their biometric data is collected and how that data is safeguarded.

“Alcatraz AI is transforming the way people enter buildings and secure areas by making access frictionless and more secure, while also protecting user privacy,” said Tina D’Agostin, CEO of Alcatraz AI. “Two of the biggest challenges to adoption of facial biometrics in the enterprise has been the burden of enrollment and the concern over privacy. With privacy consent management we have created a simple opt-in process which allows our customers to communicate clearly with end users the benefits of facial authentication and how their personal data will be used and managed.

“Alcatraz AI mobile enrollment with privacy consent management reduces the cost and complexity of the entire process and protects privacy by enabling corporate compliance with privacy laws and regulations such as General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR), the Illinois Biometric Information Protection Act (BIPA) and the California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA); and, ultimately creates a more secure environment.”
