Data Centers and Colocation

Data centers and colocation providers require highly secure, scalable access control that can support large volumes of users without creating operational bottlenecks or compromising security. BioConnect addresses this need by integrating biometric authentication into Security Center with a flexible, scalable architecture that supports full replication, enabling customers to grow without impacting performance or security.

Features like “enroll once, go anywhere” and pre-enrollment streamline user onboarding, while hardware with built-in card readers allows seamless use of existing credentials without added complexity. The result is a unified, cyber-physical security solution that enhances security, simplifies operations, and scales effortlessly across even the most demanding environments.

Hyperscalers and Corporate Campuses

Organizations need a secure and compliant way to manage employee biometric data while ensuring ease of use and scalability across multiple locations. The BioConnect integration addresses this need by enabling biometric management within a secure on-premise environment, giving employees confidence that their data is protected while also supporting regulatory compliance through built-in consent features. Its flexible architecture allows users to seamlessly move between sites using the same biometric identity without re-enrollment, improving operational efficiency. The deep, native integration simplifies enrollment of fingerprints or facial recognition directly within the existing platform, eliminating the need to train staff on multiple systems. As a result, organizations benefit from enhanced security, streamlined operations, and a solution that satisfies both IT and compliance requirements.

Features and Benefits

Solution Architecture

BioConnect integrates with Genetec Security Center using the Genetec SDK to continuously synchronize user data—such as names, card credentials, and PINs—ensuring accuracy and data integrity across the system. This real-time synchronization happens seamlessly in the background, eliminating the need for customers to manage multiple platforms. The deep embedded integration allows users to enroll biometrics directly within the Security Center interface, removing the need to switch between systems or train staff on separate software. Additionally, BioConnect supports both Wiegand and OSDP communication at the panel level, providing flexibility for different infrastructure needs. Overall, this tight integration makes it simple to enhance existing Genetec deployments with biometrics while improving efficiency and security.
