RecFaces Updates Id-Guard & Id-Gate with Advanced Algorithm and Partner-Focused Functionalities

Top-5 NIST-Ranked Facial Recognition Algorithm Became Even More Precise

Both Id-Guard and Id-Gate are now powered by an upgraded facial recognition algorithm ranked among the Top 5 globally by NIST.

The latest version delivers:

• significantly higher identification accuracy
• improved consistency in challenging conditions, including poor lighting or partial face visibility
• faster and more reliable real-time recognition performance in operational environments

These improvements are important for large-scale security deployments, where biometric systems must operate reliably across diverse environments, lighting conditions, and high traffic volumes.

Expanded Language Support for Global Deployments

The new versions introduce Portuguese language support, expanding accessibility for users across Latin America and other Portuguese-speaking regions — part of RecFaces’ ongoing commitment to making advanced biometric technology truly global.

This enhancement supports RecFaces’ strategy of enabling regionally deployable biometric platforms that meet localization requirements without increasing deployment complexity — a key consideration for LATAM system integrators and multinational enterprises.

Customer-Driven Product Enhancements

According to Farida Baichora, Product Owner at RecFaces, the updates reflect direct feedback from partners and customers:

At RecFaces, we always listen to our clients’ needs. Many of the new features in this release were implemented based on their requests — whether it’s easier configuration, greater automation, or deeper integration with existing systems. Our goal is to make facial biometrics not just powerful, but practical and intuitive for everyday use.

Id-Guard: A Smarter Approach to Video Surveillance

The upgraded Id-Guard offers users a more intelligent and flexible platform for facial recognition within video management systems.

Key updates include:

• Full integration with Avigilon Unity Video VMS, , expanding its interoperability with leading global security platforms that already have certified, ready-made integrations with RecFaces and thus allowing customers to create unified, cross-platform security environments
• A redesigned user interface provides more personalization, from customizable dashboards and theme selection to bookmarks that help operators instantly return to key objects or events
• Enhanced filtering options and faster data processing simplify forensic searches, now with the ability to sort by emotions or headdress — a valuable feature for investigations in complex environments
• New group operations enable teams to manage multiple cameras, profiles, or devices simultaneously, reducing the risk of manual errors
• Synchronization between two RecFaces solutions makes large-scale deployments easier to coordinate
• Automatic profile creation and duplicate profile detection improve overall data accuracy and save operators valuable time

These capabilities are particularly relevant for city surveillance, transport infrastructure, airports, and enterprise security operations across emerging and mature markets.

Id-Gate: Next-Generation Biometric Access Control

The latest version of Id-Gate, RecFaces’ biometric access management software, introduces an even more secure and convenient way to control access to facilities.

New features include:

• Support for the OSDP protocol, which provides encrypted communication between terminals and access control systems — preventing unauthorized interference and enhancing data protection
• A VMS-ACS adapter enables simultaneous operation of both systems, allowing security teams to monitor and manage video and access events within one workflow
• The interface has also become more flexible, allowing users to create personal reports, customize dashboards, and use bookmarks for quick access to critical records
• New workflow tools such as Access Schedules help administrators manage employee permissions according to time and location
• Group operations simplify configuration changes across multiple devices
• Improved duplicate detection, better filtering, and updated translations make everyday system use smoother and faster, contributing to a higher overall efficiency of security operations

These enhancements support secure, scalable access control deployments across commercial, industrial, and public-sector environments.

Reflecting its innovation and recognition within the industry, Id-Gate has been nominated for the Security Buyer Readers’ Award in the category “Biometric Solution of the Year”.

Innovation Driven by Real Customer Needs

Through these releases, RecFaces demonstrates its commitment to continuous improvement and customer-centric development. By combining one of the world’s most accurate recognition algorithms with tools that simplify integration and system management, RecFaces’ solutions provide measurable value to system integrators, security distributors, and organizations seeking to strengthen security, streamline processes, and accelerate digital transformation.
