Alcatraz AI Launches New High-Performance AI Facial Authentication Security Product, Rock X, With Sleek Design to Revolutionize Security

The New Product Launches at GSX 2024 and Seeks to Redefine Security with Reliable Access Control Around the Clock, Regardless of Lighting and Weather Conditions

Alcatraz AI, a global provider of frictionless, AI-powered biometric access control solutions revolutionizing security through facial authentication, today announced the launch of their latest product offering, Rock X, taking place at their booth (#3000) at Global Security Exchange (GSX) 2024 from September 23rd-25th. With sleek, low-configuration integration capabilities, Rock X will redefine indoor and outdoor biometric security and access control, ensuring modern, frictionless, and secure facial authentication technology, regardless of the setting. Unlike other technology on the market, Rock X can be mounted flat on turnstiles, eliminating the typical mounts standard across the industry for access control devices and delivering a cohesive, aesthetic-driven security solution. Rock X also comes in a variety of custom colors to match company aesthetics and branding.

Rock X is designed to provide high-performance facial authentication in all weather conditions. The product works in total darkness and intense, direct sunlight, ensuring reliable access control around the clock. Rock X is also IP66 water and dust-resistant, meaning it is fully operational even in extreme weather conditions. Deployed via an enterprise-grade software platform trusted by some of the largest companies in the world, Rock X is backward compatible with existing Alcatraz installations.
