International. ISS - Intelligent Security Systems announced a strategic partnership with Captis Intelligence. The partnership will leverage each company's area of expertise and introduce an automated face search solution connected to a unique criminal database of 35 million subjects provided by Captis Intelligence.
The move will expand and capture more opportunities in the rapidly transforming facial recognition market, offering users the ability to access open-source legal criminal data in their face search operations while adhering to current biometric data privacy concerns. The ability to alert if a registered sex offender has entered a school or the identification of an international terrorist at a port of entry are examples of current applications where the fusion of technologies will be implemented.
"We are continually evaluating our offering to ensure that our products and partnerships effectively meet the needs of our customers." said Daniel Marino, ISS Chief Operating Officer. "The Captis database provides additional tools for customers who do not have a database built, providing information that allows security teams to quickly and accurately identify subjects that may pose a potential risk," Marino added. ISS will continue to collaborate with Captis Intelligence in the development of technology aimed at transforming data into immediate security intelligence.
"Our strategic alliance with ISS is a perfect illustration of Captis' strategy to redefine subject identification solutions," said Kirk Brown, vice president of business development at Captis. "Our partnership with ISS is based on innovation and a shared approach to solving today's most pressing problems with facial recognition technology," Brown added.
