Alcatraz AI, a pioneer in autonomous access control solutions, shared the trends that will have a significant impact on the biometric access control market in 2023: frictionless access control is here to stay; privacy and legal aspects of biometrics are more localised; changing work environments are driving enterprises to multimodal authentication; and, the market continues to accelerate cloud adoption with solutions that natively interact with their current infrastructure.
“Biometrics for access control are at a pivotal moment, driven by the changing nature of work environments and employee habits post-COVID, improvements in technology to better protect individual privacy, and expectations of technology solutions to improve efficiency,” said Tina D’Agostin, CEO of Alcatraz AI. “Corporate security teams have been asked not just to provide security, but address a multitude of business drivers impacted in part by these trends.”
