HID announces that its hardware-based HID ATOM™ document reader and HID U.ARE.U® facial recognition module have been integrated with Soloinsight's CloudGate™ visitor management and physical identity and access management (PIAM) platform to enhance the self-service visitor check-in kiosk from Connected Technology Solutions (CTS). Designed for global enterprises and critical infrastructure environments, the integration enables organisations to verify visitor identities before issuing access credentials while creating a consistent, auditable visitor management process.
Facilities such as hospitals, data centers, offices and logistics hubs often manage hundreds of contractors, vendors and visitors each day, yet most check-in processes verify little more than a name. A visitor can type any name into a tablet or present a photo ID that a receptionist has no way to authenticate which means the person issued a badge may not be who they claim to be.
