Based on many years of development experience and accumulated expertise, we offer a wide range of biometric identification solutions that meet the requirements of almost any customer. These are both "classic" fingerprint readers and more modern facial recognition terminals. We are pleased that these solutions are now fully available to Sigur users. said Artem Arifov, sales manager for Suprema in the Middle East, Turkey, Africa and the CIS.

The integration operation requires a basic module and a license for each biometric device connected to the MCDS. The initial configuration is performed through the BioStar 2 SOSuprema, after which biometric templates can be controlled directly from Sigur software.

With some models of Suprema terminals, additional access logic is opened, which allows the implementation of advanced identification scenarios in MCDS. For example, when using FaceStation F2, a pass is possible: only by fingerprint, only by face template, by map and fingerprint, by map and face template, by face template and fingerprint.

The integration of Sigur solutions with Suprema biometrics opens new horizons of security and convenience for customers around the world. Now access control is even faster, more accurate and more reliable - our joint technologies provide maximum protection for objects of any scale, noted Denis Silin, head of Sigur's international technical department.

To protect against spoofing, Suprema uses AI-based technologies. Thus, when reading a fingerprint, the system continuously analyzes dynamic changes during scanning and, based on them, effectively distinguishes a live finger from a fake.

Thus, the key integration advantages for clients are multifactor authentication, synchronization of data of employees, visitors and identifiers between Sigur MCDS and Suprema devices, automatic generation of pass numbers when accessing only by biometrics.

List of supported models Fingerprint readers:

• BioEntry P2;
• BioEntry W2;
• BioLite N2;
• X-Station 2;
• BioStation 2a.

Facial recognition terminals:

• BioEntry W3;
• BioStation 3;
• FaceStation F2.

When one-factor authentications data , the recognized person or number car is transferred ACS to Sigur to find a match with the checklist data. A positive result of the search - "match found" - is to provide access to a person's passage through the turnstile or the passage transport of a means through the barrier.

In cases where required, two-factor authentication access is provided when two factors match: the recognized person or machine number and, identifier smart cards which is applied to the turnstile reader or, accordingly, to the barrier reader.

Data on persons and state registration plates of vehicles are stored on the Sigur server. This data is also managed on the Sigur side of the MCDS. Video passes and driveways are saved on the SecurOS video server. Information about people's passes and car driveways is also recorded and available to the operator in the SecurOS FaceX or, accordingly, SecurOS Auto interfaces.

{{quote 'As developers, we see our task in enabling users to choose the best way to work with our product. Since MCDS is an integral part of the enterprise infrastructure, we strive to make our system as flexible and integrable as possible - in relation to other security products or business automation. A joint solution with ISS, the quality of the products of which has been proven by numerous implementations, is another step in this direction, the Sigur press service. }}

2019

Joint solution of Industrial Automation and NtechLab

On February 13, 2019, Industrial Automation, together with NtechLab, presented a joint product designed to simplify security management for corporate customers.

According to the company, the use of MCDS based on face recognition allows you to guarantee the ability to access only admitted persons to the object and ensure flexible delimitation of rights, excluding the possibility of human errors and criminal conspiracy. Due to the fact that the solution is based on the FindFace algorithm. Thanks to the use of liveness technology, the algorithm is able to distinguish a living person from an image, which eliminates the possibility of penetration of unaccredited persons.

The NtechLab and Sigur solution will speed up the passage of employees to the enterprise by identifying any number of persons entering the camera at a distance of several meters. Even if a large group of visitors approach the turnstile at the same time, the system will unmistakably reveal who is denied access to the facility. To comply with the identification accuracy of 99%, not even the most modern video equipment is enough - the minimum technical requirements for the camera do not exceed the resolution of 720x576 pixels. Artyom Kukharenko, founder of NtechLab and head of the company's machine learning laboratory

To demonstrate the work of the joint solution Sigur and NtechLab, a special zone was organized that allows you to clearly show the work of passageways - from identifying employees to fixing the facts of passageways. As an executive device, IP a -turnet was used - a tripod with an already installed Sigur controller. Due to the fact that all the work on connecting the MCDS controller has been done in the production of the device, the installation of such a solution on the site is carried out simply and quickly.

The access control and control system developed by our companies will help enterprises not only keep accurate records of employees' working hours, but also save staff on PHY without fear that someone who should not be there will penetrate the facility. In addition, face recognition for February 2019 is the most modern and user-friendly way of identification. The implementation and operation of the solution do not require a complex organization of space and large investments. In addition, companies that already use Sigur solutions can easily upgrade them and start working with NtechLab algorithms. Konstantin Maleev, Sigur Lead Engineer

2017: Name change to Sigur

Since April 18, 2017, SCUD "Sphinx" has been operating under the SIGUR brand.

2011: Composition. Description of Sphinx MCDS

As of October 2011, Sphinx MCDS - consists of a set of software and Sphinx controllers, are designed to work as part of the professional Sphinx MCDS manufactured by the Russian enterprise Industrial Automation.

Sphinx controllers are network controllers. Regardless of communication with the system server, each controller decides to allow or deny access on its own, based on the key base and access modes stored in the non-volatile memory of the controller. All recorded events are also stored in the non-volatile memory of the controller. The date and time of the event is recorded according to the readings of the built-in real-time clock. If there is communication with the server, events are automatically transmitted to the MCDS server.

In the Sphinx MCDS event log, you can track all recognized car numbers transmitted by Ewclid-AUTO modules. Now you can find out - the car with which number drove, and in which direction. These numbered events are stored in the event log archive, which can then be analyzed and output the necessary reports.

To implement this integration on the video server, you must install software () ON Ewclid version 2.1.29, Ewclid-AUTO software 2.0.5 and SPHINCS software 1.0.52.8.
