Telos ID Biometric Identification Technology Enhances Facility Security

Telos ID has delivered its mobile authentication visitors system to FedExField, home of the Washington Redskins, substantially enhancing visitor tracking and accountability.

An expansion of the previously deployed access system was used to credential and verify employees and contractors at the stadium, the visitors system extends identity management to include temporary visitors. The system issues temporary badges to visitors, VIPs and contractors requiring access to the facility for day-to-day business as well as on game or event days.

Identifying information is entered into the system manually or by scanning documentation. As part of the initial verification process, a visitor is checked against watch lists and if clear, a temporary badge is issued to the individual. Badges are customizable by date and facility access. The visitors system captures and logs detailed information to provide a complete access history.

“Recently we were asked to verify the dates of attendance for some special clients,” said Ed Burke, Director of Security for FedExField. “With the visitors system, we were able to quickly verify their attendance on the date in question.”
