      Configure Rock Mode of Operation

      This table summarizes the different modes that can be set on the Rock.

       

      Device Mode Description
      Demo Mode
      • Demo is used for quick demonstrations.
      • Similar to 1FA - requires face or badge as credential.
      • Auto-enrollment is enabled and requires only 2 consecutive badge swipes with no wait in between to be enrolled. ƒ
      • Enrollment profiles are not retained and will be deleted when the Rock reboots.

      Face or Badge (1FA)
      • Single Factor Authentication requires either face or badge as the credential.
      • The Rock will authenticate users that are enrolled. Users not yet enrolled will require their badge. ƒ
      • 1FA allows turning on Auto-enrollment. (The feature is disabled by default.) People enroll by swiping their badge 4-6 times over the course of a few days.

      Face-Only (1FAF)
      • Single Factor Face Only requires face as the credential.
      • This mode is used at doors that do not have a badge reader.

      Face and Badge (2FA) 
      • Two Factor Authentication requires face and badge as the credentials.
      Face and Badge and PIN (3FA)
      • The mode supports 3FA when Support 3FA is toggled on. The functionality for third authentication factor should be enabled when requiring users to enter a PIN or other additional authentication factor.
      • The Rock will authenticate the face but the user must swipe a badge and then enter a PIN. The ACS must be configured to accept Badge + PIN. Reach out to Alcatraz AI for questions on authentication factors.

      Mask Enforcement (2FA-M)
      • Mask Enforcement requires a mask and badge.
      • The Rock will enforce the user to wear a mask before allowing a user to badge in.

      Enrollment
      • Referred to as manual enrollment.
      • Allows companies to dedicate a Rock as an enrollment station to enroll users quickly
      • Ideal to have a dedicated Rock for enrollment in companies that have Rocks operating in 2FA, 1FAF, or regularly enrolling employees.
      Badge Only (1FA)
      • Requires badge only
      • No facial authentication required for the user
