Control access at sites & facilities

Biometric access control for secure sites and critical infrastructure

Biometric access control matters wherever access needs to be precise, trusted and auditable. Whether you’re managing entry to a remote energy site, a city hospital, a gated residential estate, a university research facility, an industrial plant or a live construction site, IDEMIA helps you know exactly who’s on site, with no guesswork, and no reliance on outdated cards or PINs.

Unlike cards or PINs, our AI-powered biometric systems verify the person, not just the credential, even in rain, gloves, or shift change chaos. That means no tailgating, no badge sharing, and no easy workarounds. Just secure, frictionless entry for those who should be there, and no one else.

What makes IDEMIA Smart Biometrics different?

IDEMIA’s biometric technology is built for environments where failure isn’t an option. Our core algorithms are regularly benchmarked by independent bodies such as NIST and consistently rank among the best in the world for accuracy and speed. This is the same high performance biometric technology trusted by governments, border agencies and critical infrastructure operators globally.

You’re not getting repurposed consumer-grade facial recognition. You’re getting enterprise-grade identity assurance, designed to work at scale, under pressure, and in the most complex environments.

We support complex environments with mobile workforces, rotating crews, and compliance requirements that vary from zone to zone. From pre-registration to on-site enrolment, our modular devices and software help you build layered, scalable access systems that fit your operational reality.

Secure every checkpoint and every shift

IDEMIA’s modular biometric devices and SDKs embed directly into your existing infrastructure, supporting everything from turnstiles and gates to mobile enrolment kits. Whether you’re managing multiple sites or high-risk zones inside a single facility, we help you build layered, future-ready security.

With IDEMIA, you’re not just letting the right people in, you’re doing it with confidence, even at 3am in the rain, with gloves on.
