EyeLock completes integration with Genetec access control platform

October 4, 2018

EyeLock LLC, a provider of iris-based identity authentication solutions, has completed an integration with the Genetec Security Center Synergis access control platform that enables iris template management within the access control platform, according to a press release.  

The Synergis IP access control system heightens the security of an organization and increases its readiness to respond to incidents and threats, leveraging existing network and security equipment investments.
 
"By including EyeLock products that are fully integrated with Genetec access control systems, our network of experienced, value-added resellers and system integrators will be able to help realize substantial features and business benefits for both our organizations," EyeLock CEO Jeff Carter said in the release. 
 
In addition to speeding up the onboarding process by eliminating dual data entry for customers, the integrated interface into Synergis enables intelligent onboard memory management within iris readers. Based on an individual's access control permissions, the system is able to  distribute iris templates only to access points determined to be necessary for that person.
 
"The Genetec Security Center software developer's kit enabled EyeLock with the ability to fully embed the entire iris enrollment process inside of the Security Center interface, and provided a completely unified experience for the end user," Thibaut Louvet, product group director for access control at Genetec, said in the release. "Having a fully embedded experience with Synergis and the EyeLock biometric hardware will improve operational efficiency by accelerating onboarding and management for our access control users."
