How Identity and Access Management Is Changing in the Workplace
Simple passwords and physical keys are a long way behind identity and access management. At the beginning of the 2000s, organizations operated RFID cards and PINs that were easy to duplicate or steal. The emergence of cyber threats and data breaches prompted the need to have more resilient systems and thus biometrics, or unique physiological traits, were adopted, and such traits cannot be easily faked.
Biometrics use human features such as fingerprints, iris scans and facial features to identify their owners. Industry leaders claim that the technologies can spare up to 99% of fraud in contrast to the old ones. Mantra is a leading player in this field and established in 2006, has created biometric devices that combine AI and machine learning to achieve a higher level of accuracy. Their solutions reduce false positives and negatives and learn to become better with time.
Kiosks have in the meantime revolutionized self-service interactions. These single machines are located at airports, retail outlets, and other places without human involvement and minimize mistakes. Moreze, the largest kiosk manufacturer, goes a step further to design modular and customizable units which are introduced to include the secure operations by applying biometrics. Fingerprint to kiosk pipeline: Mantra Authentication Mantra, cell identifiers The combination of biometrics by Mantra and kiosks by Moreze forms a fingerprint to kiosk pipeline: scan followed by access, credential dispensing, or data processing, all within a few seconds.
Such development is ideally applicable to the contemporary workplaces where remote working and time flexibility require an opportunity to work without the security issues. To provide an example, in the post-pandemic society, solutions such as iris or facial recognition are contactless and they ensure adherence to guidelines such as the GDPR or the HIPAA.
Mantra’s Biometric Innovations: The Foundation of Secure Identity
Mantra is a leading company in biometrics and RFID across the world and offers devices that transform the way businesses operate in terms of security. Their flagship products are fingerprint scanners such as MFS500, which is a high-level optical sensor, which helps capture high-resolution images and do an accurate matching. They are FBI-certified and can be used with live finger detection to guard against spoofing via fake prints.
Better still, Iris sensors offered by Mantra scan individual eye patterns, which remain undetected with time. These devices can be used in workplaces since they are ideal in high-stakes settings, where they perform optimally in low-light settings and with a distance. It is further enhanced with facial recognition, which is an AI-based tool that examines the characteristics such as bone structure and skin texture to quickly verify an individual.
Such technologies excel in the working environment. In the case of time and attendance, the systems of Mantra are able to monitor the check in of employees with precision and remove buddy punching and they stand with the payroll software to ensure smooth processes. In access control, doors or restricted areas open once there is a successful biometric match and a record of all the entries is kept to audit trails. Centralized databases, which complement biometrics to the user profiles, are beneficial in identity management since they enable new employees to be on-boarded in a short time.
The solutions of Mantra are implemented in industries: banking with safe transactions, healthcare with patient verification and manufacturing with shifts control. They can be integrated with software platforms to be customized- no extra expenses incurred to have specific environments. When integrating hardware with AI-based analytics, Mantra will be scalable, enabling thousands of users without any performance drops.
Moreze’s Kiosk Solutions: Automating the User Experience
Whereas Mantra offers the biometric security, Moreze offers the interactive front-end with its hi-tech kiosks. Moreze, being an industry leader in the manufacture of self-service machines, has created self-service machines, which are user friendly, secure and customizable. They are designed in different formats: floor mount, wall mount, or tabletop with touchscreens, printers, and scanners that allow adaptable application.
The most important products are the Enroleze Self-Registration Kiosk that records fingerprints, iris scans, and photographs to enable enrolment of identities efficiently. This helps in invaluable onboarding where HR would not have to work as much and would have to get the data right. The VisitEze Visitor Management Kiosk automates check-ins, which verify credentials and biometrics and then print badges notifying hosts. It improves security as it keeps a record of those who visit and access to authorized premises is restricted.
The other solutions such as CardEze issue access cards immediately when a biometric verification is completed and SmartEze employs AI to smartly interact e.g. suggesting access level based on the role of the user. The kiosks provided by Moreze are applicable in the hospitality, retail, healthcare, and government sectors where they automate processes and reduce expenses.
The feature of customization is also remarkable: the businesses can configure hardware and software to meet their particular demands, whether it is the addition of RFID readers or the connection with already existing IAM systems. Biometric integration guarantees that the kiosk itself can be accessed in a secure manner to prevent unauthorized access.
These kiosks serve as the digital hubs in work places. Indicatively, visitors to a corporate lobby are greeted by a Moreze kiosk that scans the ID, does a facial match and allows them to access the elevator, without the assistance of any employee. This increases efficiency along with giving it a tech savvy image.
Synergistic Integration: Real-World Use Cases and Benefits
The real force is realized when the biometrics of Mantra are paired up with the kiosks of Moreze to form end to end identity and access solutions. Such a technical synergy can be used to create smooth workflows: a user visits a Moreze kiosk, identifies themselves with the fingerprint scanner or iris scanner of the Mantra and the system processes requests immediately.
Take into account employee onboarding. At an office in the new millennium, a new employee registers on an Enrolze kiosk, where he/she enrolls biometrics, uploads paperwork, and is issued an access badge. This can now be done in minutes whereas it used to require hours to be done, and data can be synchronized to HR systems and immediately activated. To ensure both access control and surveillance, identification and entry logs are collected at the entry point by integrated kiosks and connected to the surveillance to ensure a full security system.
These solutions are used to support remote access in the hybrid workplace. Workers are able to pre-check in through mobile applications, and later on physical verification can be done through kiosks. Applications Use cases also reach high-security environments, such as data centers, where multi-factor biometrics (fingerprint + iris) are used to make sure that only cleared staff members are allowed in.
Benefits are multifaceted. Biometric immutability adds to security and reduces the risk of lost credentials. Productivity goes off the scale–kiosks process large numbers without a line, leaving personnel free to perform more productive work. It saves on costs in terms of administrative overhead and scalable implementations. User experience is enhanced by easy to use interfaces hence a good work culture is created.
Operational efficiency ties it all together. Hardware is provided by Mantra, and the analysis, including peak access times, is offered by Moreze.
