Next-Generation for Secure Access

Secure Pre-Pass is an app on your phone for getting a pass to controlled facilities in a few seconds. Pre-Pass supports secure, on-the-move vehicle access as well as pedestrian access to buildings and other areas.  A server checks your identity and forwards your pass.  In contrast, a through-the-windshield solution has only one shot with zero time to fix a problem.  

Key Benefits

Secure, Convenient, Enterprise Technology That Is Also Most Cost-Effective

NIST logo

Better security

Multi-Factor Authentication with Facial Recognition To Plug the Security Hole in Current ID Card Checks. NIST SP 800-63B AAL2 "high confidence" of identity verification. Know, in advance, who is coming. Adapt as the threat rises, restricting passes on-the-fly and communitcting alerts. Enables users under duress to get help.

25 MPH Speed Limit Sign

Faster, more convenient access

22 vehicles-per-minute-per-lane at a safe 15 MPH, about 5 times faster than manual ID card checks. No more traffic jams at the gate, less lost time and fewer frustrations. No target for terrorists outside the gate. 100% reliable. Works for pedestrians too.

Enterprise building

Enterprise Solution

Vehicles are detected by RFID. Pedestrians can use a QR code view of the pass. Works for installations, compounds, buildings, rooms, and meetings. Enables security coordination: one pass gets you in everywhere you need to be. Scalable, on-line enrollment w/ existing vetting.

Most Cost-Effective

Relies on existing phones and networks so very little new equipment required. Automation enables guards to focus on physical security threats and offers additional savings potential. Free tech refresh as phones and networks are upgraded continually.

Let's identify in all conditions

Through-the-windshield facial recognition can never achieve a clear face image in all conditions, and the images will never compete with a phone “selfie.”

Why Choose Pre-Pass for vehicle access

For an express lane, through-the-windshield facial recognition is not very good for identity verification.  Secure Pre-Pass is stronger, less-limited, more reliable, and less expensive.  Through-the-windshield facial recognition is still useful forensically.

Next-generation innovation using cell phones and servers

With computers like mobile devices and servers, it's easy to implement better security with multi-factor authentication, alerts and other communications, and control that adapts to the changing threat environment. These flexible devices support secure access control throughout the enterprise. They also greatly simplify decision-making at the point of entry while lowering costs . This is security for the next generation of military personnel, and it works how they want it to, on their phones.

Reliable Face Images with Time for Fixes

Regardless of environmental conditions such as darkness, window tint, sun glare, rain/snow/fog., multiple passengers, face pose, sun visor obstruction, sunglasses, typographic errors, etc., Secure Pre-Pass ensures accurate identity verification. If a user has a problem, there's plenty of time to fix it. In contrast, a through-the-wind approach has one chance for a good face image and no time for fixes. At the gate, that can affect safety as well as throughput.

Accountant

Less costly

Through-the-windshield systems require an expensive camera, infrared illuminator, and complex triggering system---perhaps multiple copies of that equipment to capture faces of multiple vehicle occupants. Also, facial recognition is typically on-the-edge, more expensive than a central server.

Bad guy

Through-the-windshield Still Good For Insider Abuse

An on-site facial recognition camera can help ensure that Pre-Pass users are not inappropriately sharing their passes because it can detect sharing after-the-fact. If users cannot be be trusted, a through-the-windshield system can augment Pre-Pass to detect abuse.
