Other countries, such as Iraq and Oman, are benefiting from their oil and gas reserves. Regionally, the Middle East will remain attrative to all multinational suppliers in the coming years. The […]
An Introduction to Harbour Surveillance
Man has always been dependent on the ocean. As we began to trade with foreign lands, the importance of ports around the world grew and today they play a critical role as a fundamental part of the world’s transport infrastructure. They provide gateways to the outside world and have enabled nations to transform into export-oriented economies and […]

Middle East Growth Potential in 2018
The Middle East’s growth potential can’t be ignored. Economic initiatives and upcoming mega-events prompt government to build infrastructure and increase spending. This in turn will also lure private sector players to invest in peripheral sectors for example retail and hospitality. Combined with the need to comply with certain rules and regulations, these factors are expected […]
Fingerprint-Face Readers See Growth Potential
Fingerprint is still the primary biometric used in readers and other access control devices. However, certain limitations have prompted users to look for the possibility of adding other biometrics in addition to fingerprint. Face, then, becomes a viable solution. The use of fingerprint as the dominant biometric for access control has been solidly established. Citing a report by Yale, SmartMetric said […]
Multimodal Biometrics Add Extra Layer of Security
More and more, end user organizations are deploying multimodal biometrics, which have certain advantages over unimodal solutions. Fingerprint readers alone, for example, can’t read people with broken or wrinkled skin. Multimodal readers combining two biometrics, be they fingerprint and face or fingerprint and finger vein, offer greater flexibility and security, suiting the end user’s access control needs. Typically, access control entails […]

How Deep Learning Benefits the Security Industry
Due to the widespread use of high-definition monitoring, the amount of data involved in security surveillance has increased dramatically in a short time. Efficient collection, analysis and application of data and the intelligent use of it are becoming ever more critical in this industry. Thus, improving video intelligence appears to be an inevitable, industry-wide goal. Security users hope that […]
What to Look for When Choosing Multimodal Biometrics
There are certain parameters to determine the quality or effectiveness of a multimodal biometric solution. Capacity, false acceptance rate and false rejection rate are some examples. But ultimately, choosing a system requires a basic understanding of how it fits the user’s environment or suits their specific needs. When evaluating a multimodal biometric solution, users can refer […]
