5 Reasons You Need a Better Visitor Management System for Church

The church is one of the most sacred places where millions of people gather to obey their religion. It becomes quite hard for the authorities of churches to maintain a huge amount of visitors day by day. An effective visitor management system for churches is crucial because of many reasons including security, management, cost, convenience etc.

Here we will talk about the most important reasons you need to implement visitor management solution for churches.

Automation: Every week, millions of visitors gather in churches to perform their religious duty. There are over 300,000 churches in America and almost 37 million churches around the world. These huge amounts of churches are mostly operated by a traditional visitor management system that isn’t compatible with the system. Manual paper logs for church members have become burdensome as the number of members is increasing day by day.

A biometric-based visitor management system can make this process fully automated and fast as it eliminates the all manual data entry processing. Also, with a cloud biometric tool, you can create a digital database of all the church members with in-details information.

Security: Security becomes one of the main concerns in churches recently. A report says that over 300 mass shooting has occurred in the US churches in 2017. These fierce amounts of shootings in churches have brought up the questions of the security system in churches.

Iris Recognition vs. Retina Scanning – What are the Differences?

In biometrics, iris and retinal scanning are known as “ocular-based” identification technologies, meaning they rely on unique physiological characteristics of the eye to identify an individual. Even though they both share part of the eye for identification purposes, these biometric modalities are quite different in how they work. Let’s take a closer look at both and then explain the similarities and differences in detail: Retinal Scanning: The human retina is a thin tissue composed of neural cells that are located in the posterior portion of the eye. Because of the complex structure of the capillaries that supply the retina with blood, each person’s retina is unique. The network of blood vessels in the retina is so complex that even identical twins do not share a similar pattern. Although retinal patterns may be altered in cases of diabetes, glaucoma or retinal degenerative disorders, the retina typically remains unchanged from birth until death. (Source: Wikipedia) ...

Finger Vein Biometrics Identification for Membership Management Software

An article published today in the University of Vermont’s campus newspaper The Vermont Cynic reported that the campus recreation center has adopted M2SYS finger vein technology for student member identification. Tim Lewis, associate director for campus recreation made the decision to use finger vein biometrics for member identification after brainstorming ideas on how to eliminate students carrying ID cards. Happy to see our finger vein biometric identification system used at the University of Vermont through a partnership we have with Vermont Systems, a recreation and parks software provider based in Essex Junction, VT. Modern-day membership management software is designed to help create efficiencies that antiquated methods simply can’t provide. In an effort to eliminate ID cards, prevent identity fraud, and create a more convenient user experience, many membership management facilities are evaluating vascular biometrics (finger vein) for identification because of the distinct ...

Misinformation about Biometric Technology Continues to Fuel Functionality Misconceptions

Today, we came across the following blog post from Guy Huntington at Infosec Island: “What Happened to My Biometric?” In the post, the author discusses the inherent dangers of opting into a biometric identification system by providing your fingerprint and the possible negative privacy and identity theft consequences if a user does not make sure that their biometric template is deleted from the system if they leave or opt-out. Our take: While we are always pleased to see biometric technology pop up in the news or through blog postings, we often cringe when we see these types of articles that essentially do not accurately depict biometric technology, and leave readers with ill-conceived perceptions about how the technology actually works. Anyone who works in the biometric industry can attest to the fact that there is never an image of a user’s fingerprint stored. The truth of the matter is that biometric enrollment templates stored on a server are not actually an image of t...
