讯连科技 FaceMe 系统得到升级

讯连科技发布了 FaceMe Security 解决方案 7.15 版本，这是一个基于面部识别的系统，用于身份验证、考勤管理和访问控制。一个重要的新功能是“通知监视器”附加组件，当检测到列入黑名单的个人时，它会通过闪烁的通知和声音向安全人员发出警报，并显示实时信息以主动预防事件。该更新还通过与讯连科技的 U Messenger 应用程序集成增强了灵活性，允许用户设置特定的警报参数并根据警报类型向不同的聊天组发送通知。此次升级是讯连科技的 FaceMe 平台获得 ISO/IEC 27001:2022 认证之后进行的，突显了讯连科技对严格信息安全标准的承诺。

CyberLink has released version 7.15 of its FaceMe Security solution, a facial recognition-based system for identity verification, attendance management, and access control. A significant new feature is the ‘Notification Monitor’ add-on, which alerts security personnel with blinking notifications and sounds when a blocklisted individual is detected, displaying real-time information for proactive incident prevention. The update also enhances flexibility through integration with CyberLink’s U Messenger app, allowing users to set specific alert parameters and send notifications to different chat groups based on alert types. This upgrade follows CyberLink’s achievement of ISO/IEC 27001:2022 certification for its FaceMe platform, underscoring its commitment to rigorous information security standards.

A recent investigative report reveals that the Five Eyes data-sharing scheme, initially designed to verify the identities of a few thousand asylum seekers, has dramatically expanded with minimal oversight. The Five Eyes alliance, which includes New Zealand, the United States, Australia, Canada, and the United Kingdom, now tracks everyone entering or leaving these nations, with annual checks soaring from 3,000 to 8 million. The scheme has shifted from sharing asylum seekers’ fingerprints to automatically sharing comprehensive biometric and biographic data of all travelers, often without their knowledge or consent. This expansion and the secrecy surrounding the agreements have raised significant concerns about errors, such as mistaken identity, and the lack of mechanisms for individuals to correct these errors.

最近的一份调查报告显示，“五眼”数据共享计划最初旨在验证数千名寻求庇护者的身份，但在监管极少的情况下已急剧扩大。包括新西兰、美国、澳大利亚、加拿大和英国在内的五眼联盟现在追踪所有进出这些国家的人，每年的支票从 3000 张飙升至 800 万张。该计划已从共享寻求庇护者的指纹转变为自动共享所有旅行者的综合生物识别和传记数据，而通常是在他们不知情或同意的情况下。这种扩张和围绕协议的保密性引起了人们对错误的严重担忧，例如错误的身份，以及缺乏个人纠正这些错误的机制。

SA Consumer Products has recalled 133,370 gun safes, including the Sanctuary Quick Access Biometric Home Safe and the Sports Afield Home Defense 4-Gun Biometric Safe, due to unreliable biometric locks. The Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC) issued the recall after reports indicated that unauthorized users could open the safes, posing a significant risk of serious injury or death. SA Consumer Products reported 77 instances of unauthorized access, though no injuries were recorded. This recall follows the CPSC’s earlier announcement in February, which included recalls for multiple brands such as Machir, Bulldog, MouTec, and Awesafe, after a tragic incident where a faulty biometric lock on a Fortress Safe allowed a 12-year-old boy to gain access, resulting in his death. That incident led to a product recall and a lawsuit against the company.
