Deny Lists flag unwanted visitors who check in with Guest. During security screenings, the system checks the visitor’s full name and date of birth. If Deny List Face Match is enabled, the system also compares the visitor’s face against the list.

Review Deny List Face Match results
Deny List Face Match results appear after a visitor signs in through a Guest Type that checks against the Deny List, and the visitor resembles someone on the deny list. As with ID security screenings, staff must review the results to confirm or dismiss them.
Results from Deny List Face Match have the flag Deny List - Face Match in the top left of the record.
