The Impact Facial Recognition Technology Has Had for the Security Industry

Many industries and organizations are taking advantage of the evolving technology for multiple reasons.

You might already be engaging with facial recognition technology on a daily basis without realizing it, but there are considerable implications for the future of technology development. Maybe Facebook tagged you and your friends in a recent picture, and you wondered how it already knew who was who. Certain facial recognition technology services are able to identify human faces in images very accurately. Many industries and organizations are taking advantage of the evolving technology for multiple reasons, like the FBI. You might be wondering, where will the future of facial recognition technology take us next? Read on to learn how it is impacting the security industry.

Personal Security

The theft of personal identity and financial information has become a severe threat. From something like identity theft through RFID scanning, meaning hackers can potentially steal your bank account information without you even realizing it, to hacked ATM machines, it has made us all a little bit more careful. Facial recognition technology has already been used as a way to protect your identity. There are ATM machines in countries like China that scan your face to help prevent a potential thief from using your information. This is just one way security technology can be used for the greater good.

National Security

Facial recognition technology has already been utilized to identify fake passports or visas. This can be a great form of assistance in stopping terrorists at the borders, which is essential today. Gatekeeper’s security technology can work just as well for global governments in providing the necessary additional security by matching images with an online database of known threats and terrorists.

Commercial Security

Companies might be able to use facial recognition security software to identify criminals or other threats. This can be excellent for the headquarters of a commercial business. If you run a parking lot or parking garage, you can use Gatekeeper’s IVOD facial identification cameras to determine who was coming into your lot or garage. The camera’s high-resolution images can be matched against an extensive database of criminals to flag anyone who should not be entering your property instantly. All this is done while the vehicle is moving, and windows are shut.

Facial recognition is an evolving form of technology that will continue to help those looking for more serenity and security.
