WHAT ARE THE BENEFITS OF BIOMETRICS FOR ACCESS
CONTROL?
2
INTRODUCATION
Biometrics is the analysis of biological data
using technology. Biometric access control
represents a modern type of security technology
that can present a series of benefits across
multiple industries. Biometric access control is
the use of this biological data to either grant
or denies access to a building or area of a
building. The main benefits of using biometric
access control for security, convenience, and
reduced costs.

INHERENT TO THE USER
Since biometrics use a persons unique biology to
verify their identity, it is extremely difficult
for them to be taken or used by anyone other than
the intended user.
4
Difficult to Duplicate and Easy Permission
Management
Biometrics are generally much harder to spoof
because most modern biometric systems use
liveness tests to ensure that the biometric data
is coming from an actual human and not a forged
replica. With biometrics such as Keyo, admins can
instantly grant or revoke access permissions
directly from the console dashboard, allowing
them to ensure only active, non-suspended users
are given access.
5
Can't Be Lost or Forgotten and Fewer Security
Staff
Biometric access control systems are remarkably
convenient in that they allow authorized users to
access the facility without needing anything
other than themselves. Biometric access control
systems can save companies money by reducing the
need for dedicated security staff to man access
points. According to Salary Expert, The average
salary for a gate guard in the US is about
32,000 a year.

Easy Access and Efficiency
Your biometric ID is always at hand, so no more
fumbling in your pocket for a fob or ID card.
With Keyo, your hand is your ID. Most biometrics
are able to identify users in under a second,
eliminating the inefficiency and time delays
caused by manual identity checks, passwords, or
PINs.

Fewer Security Staff And Zero Replacement Costs
Biometric access control systems can save
companies money by reducing the need for
dedicated security staff to man access points.
According to Salary Expert, The average salary
for a gate guard in the US is about 32,000 a
year. Access control systems that use physical
tokens such as keycards and fobs incur an extra
hidden cost lost token replacement rate. Lost
cards and fobs are an all-too-common occurrence.
8
Protect Expensive Equipment
The cost of potential security breaches outweighs
the previous costs by an order of magnitude. In
manufacturing facilities, for example, the use of
machinery by unauthorized persons can void the
warranty of the machine, creating enormous
out-of-pocket costs to repair if it breaks.
