How it works

Sense
Rock X uses multi-sensor 3D imaging, badge activity and an eye-level camera to observe the person at the controlled doorway.
Connect
Rock X interfaces with compatible access control through OSDP or Wiegand; RockOS and RockCortex support device and event management.
Analyze
Edge AI verifies liveness, compares the encrypted facial signature and identifies possible tailgating or unauthorized entry.
Act
The integrated access-control system grants or denies entry, while security teams receive centralized device and event visibility.

Why teams choose it

Stronger Credential Assurance
Faster Deployment
Lower Badge Dependence
Privacy-Preserving Operation

About AI Facial Authentication Access Control

Alcatraz Rock X authenticates enrolled faces at an entrance and presents credentials to an existing access-control system. Local matching and liveness checks support entry decisions; tailgating alerts flag additional people for review.

  • Organizations managing controlled entrances
  • Security and access-administration teams

You need

  • Compatible access controllers and enrollment procedures
  • Network, power and appropriate camera placement

Limitations

Questions and answers

Q: Must the access system be replaced?

A: Rock X supports integration through OSDP or Wiegand.

Q: Are original face photographs the stored credential?

A: The vendor describes encrypted facial templates rather than retained original photos.

Q: Does liveness remove the need for access policy?

A: No. Enrollment, credential permissions and exception handling still require administration.
