C-True face recognition technology approved by SAFA
C-True will supply C-ENTRY face recognition to SAFA for World Cup 

Following several comprehensive trials in South Africa, C-TRUE Face Recognition technology was approved by the South African Football Association (SAFA) for access control security to critical SAFA facilities including the office of the CEO, Mr. Raymond Hack.

Stallion Security, C-TRUE's partner in South Africa, was chosen to provide SAFA with a comprehensive security solution including the C-TRUE's C-ENTRY face recognition based biometric system and video surveillance monitored from Stallion's state of the art "nerve centre".

C-ENTRY is an innovative and advanced biometric solution that uses individual's face as a key to grant access of use to premises which needs to be secured against unauthorized individuals.

C-ENTRY proved superb performance under extremely demanding conditions" claims" Alvin Flaum, Managing Director of Stallion Electronic Security. High profile trial sites in South Africa, including SAFA, all successfully evaluated and approved the C-ENTRY systems late last year.  

"C-ENTRY is the first truly functional user friendly face recognition system we evaluated and tried in many local installations" claims Flaum.

South Africa will host in 2010 the FIFA world cup, which is expected to generate over $ 500 million dollars in business and host hundreds of facilities.
