Unlike legacy biometric readers, Alcatraz AI’s solutions promise to maintain data integrity by creating a secure digital profile without exposing personally identifiable information (PII). User images, names, and job titles are never displayed or stored, ensuring compliance and peace of mind.

In line with this idea, Alcatraz has launched an initiative which offers an exclusive discount, until mid February 2025, for new customers seeking to replace outdated biometric readers with Alcatraz AI’s advanced Rock or Rock X solutions–modern, frictionless facial authentication systems that enhance security without compromising user privacy.

During the aptly named,“Switch to Alcatraz AI” promotion, eligible new customers could receive a trade-in credit on each Rock or Rock X device when replacing ten or more outdated biometric access points, including fingerprint, palm, or iris readers.

“Yesterday’s technology is no match for today’s challenges,” said Tina D’Agostin, CEO of Alcatraz AI. “With the Rock and Rock X solutions, companies can make the shift from lagging legacy systems to leading-edge, privacy-first technology that seamlessly addresses today’s evolving security issues. Now is the perfect time to step confidently into 2025 with modern security solutions that protect both people and privacy.”

Alcatraz AI’s Rock and Rock X solutions help empower organisations across multiple industries, including data centres, critical infrastructure, healthcare facilities, higher education campuses, entertainment venues, and more, to secure their spaces with cutting-edge technology, ensuring operational efficiency and alignment with evolving privacy standards. With an increase in companies enacting return-to-office (RTO) mandates ahead of 2025, it’s more important than ever for enterprises to prioritise workplace safety and ensure their security is well-equipped to handle the influx of additional people back in the office. This promotion marks a significant opportunity for enterprises to future-ready their access control and compliance needs and put their people's and data safety at the forefront of their business.
