Access Control Systems
Access Control systems are of two types
- Conventional Access Control
- Biometric access control
In a conventional Access Control, a keycard or a pin is used to authenticate the identity of the person. However, these practices are slowly diminishing and Biometric access control systems are replacing the conventional systems for a more secure workspace.
A biometric access system detects the physical characteristics of a person. This system is used for its sensitivity and higher success rate in protection than pins and keycards. With the help of Biometric sensors, an input is taken from the concerned individual and on authentication entry is granted.
The following types are seen in the Biometric Access Control System
- Fingerprint Recognition
- Face Recognition
- Iris Recognition
- Palm Recognition
