Responsible AI at Alcatraz AI | Ethical, Consent-First Biometrics

Our facial authentication approach is rooted in advanced technology and a strong commitment to privacy and ethics. The Rock uses state-of-the-art AI and 3D sensing to deliver real-time, highly accurate authentication for physical access control, ensuring only authorized individuals can enter secure areas.

A key design principle is our deliberate limitation to 1:1 and 1:Few matching — never broad 1:Many surveillance. When you approach the Rock, the system only compares your encrypted facial signature against the enrolled identities roster. It does not scan every face in view or reference large external databases. This targeted approach eliminates the risk of bystander surveillance, profiling, or “dragnet” searches that conflict with privacy regulations.

By operationalizing responsible AI this way, Alcatraz ensures that data use is strictly limited to what is necessary for authentication. This design minimizes bias, reduces regulatory risk under frameworks like GDPR and BIPA, and builds trust by aligning the system with societal expectations for fairness and consent.

What it means for you: You gain secure, seamless access without ever being profiled or monitored just for walking by. The Rock authenticates only those who choose to enroll — nothing more.
