Improve security and increase convenience by integrating biometric verification into your organisation.
Biometric security verifies a person based on their unique physical characteristics. Because physical details, such as fingerprints, are individual and very convenient for users – there’s no password to remember or fob to carry – they have clear advantages over some other verification measures.
There are a wide range of biometric characteristics that can be used to authenticate an individual’s identity. Some of the more commonly used include fingerprint recognition, hand scanning, iris recognition and facial recognition.
Absolute Security can integrate biometric recognition into many of the security systems we supply and install.
Commercial biometric security
Biometric authentication can help create a more streamlined organisation, replacing the need for access cards, passwords and pins. It lends itself to greater IT security, access control and time and attendance systems.
Public sector biometric security
The police were one of the first adopters of biometrics with fingerprint analysis. So perhaps it’s little surprise that biometric verification continues to have an important role in the public sector. As well as being highly relevant in border control and crime prevention, biometrics can be very effective in education where they provide a user-friendly way of ensuring secure access to buildings and IT networks. They can also be used to ensure secure cash-free payment for on-site services.
Integrated biometric recognition software
Biometric authentication can be integrated with many of the security measures we provide such as access control, CCTV, time and attendance systems and monitored CCTV.
Commonly asked questions about biometric security measures
What type of biometric verification options are available?
There are a full range of biometric verification options available – from fingerprint recognition through to gait analysis. We typically provide fingerprint recognition, hand scanning, iris scanning, and facial recognition, but can work with you to provide more specialised biometric authentication measures if they are right for your needs.
How do I know which type of biometric security is right for my needs?
The right biometric security technology depends on a range of factors, including the number of people to be included on your database, your reasons for wanting biometric security and the amount of set-up time you are prepared to invest in. We carry out a free assessment and will discuss your exact requirements and the options available to you so you can make an informed choice about the right type of biometric security for your situation.
Which brands of biometric verification technology does Absolute Security install?
We work with a wide range of manufacturers including Ievo, 2N, CDVI, HID, Avigilon & Hikvision
What are the potential risks associated with biometric verification?
As much as we’d like to claim otherwise, no security measure is ever 100% guaranteed. Human error, malicious intent and glitches can impact upon any security measure. It’s the same with biometric verification. The technology used in biometric security has been developed to the highest standard and is continuously being improved. However, if the set-up and subsequent management of a biometric security system is lacking, then overall security may be compromised.
For this reason, we only recommend implementing biometric verification if you have the resources to administrate it effectively. We will carry out a full review of your needs – if we believe biometric verification is not suitable for your situation we will explain why and recommend alternatives which may suit you better.
What happens if something goes wrong with my biometric system?
We offer permanent full parts and labour warranty on all new equipment supplied and installed by us. Therefore, if there is a problem with your biometric security system and it is within warranty, we will fix it for you with no questions asked.
Regular servicing and maintenance will ensure your biometric authentication system performs at its best. For this reason, we offer a range of different biometric support packages to cater for different budgets and different needs. Many of our biometric access controlled systems are connected to our engineering department via the cloud. This means you are guaranteed a prompt response, often without the need for an engineer call-out.
How much does biometrics cost?
Because of the variety of biometrics available we can’t give you an example cost for adding biometric security to your organisation. However, we can share the options that might suit your needs in order to give you an idea of the potential cost. We provide full quotations with zero obligation to help you budget appropriately and will carry out a free assessment to understand your requirements first-hand.
To help you spread the cost of your purchase, you can pay for your biometric system over a fixed period of instalments. Unlike some other security companies, you will own your system once you have paid for it in full.
