Abstract
Facial recognition (FR) technology is revolutionizing modern security infrastructures by enabling fast, contactless, and non-transferable identity verification. As organizations increasingly adopt zero-trust architectures, FR serves as a foundational pillar for secure, unified access across physical and digital domains. This whitepaper provides an end-to-end exploration of FR systems, including their technical operation, practical applications, implementation strategies, and performance evaluation. It outlines a structured six-phase deployment roadmap, offers real-world insights from field implementations such as Changi Airport, and highlights measurable outcomes in security, operational efficiency, and user experience. While emphasizing the strategic value of FR in digital transformation, the paper also identifies key ethical, legal, and technical challenges—ranging from privacy concerns and demographic bias to regulatory compliance—and provides actionable mitigation strategies. Ultimately, this work positions facial recognition not just as a technological tool but as a strategic, accountable enabler of modern security and trust.
