There are "sensitive areas" at all levels, for example in safes, rooms in buildings, buildings themselves, industrial, military or residential areas, ports, airports and air bases, national or international borders, etc. There are two aspects to making sensitive areas secure against aggression attempts, and Sphinx has a wide range of solutions for these aspects:
Security by verification at checkpoints. Sphinx products include:
The MORPHOACCESS™ is a fingerprint reader dedicated to physical access control. It is designed to create or reinforce security systems, and has all interfaces (RS 485, Wiegand,…) necessary for it to be integrated into a new or existing access control system. The terminal includes all components necessary for capturing fingerprints, for the storage of fingerprints for up to 50 000 persons and identification of an individual, all in a small terminal. It can be used in identification or authentication mode.

Some significant examples of solutions proposed by Sagem Sécurité:
- Access control terminals with fingerprint recognition: Morphosmart™
See the brochures of the MORPHOSMART™ : MSO 300 Series
- MSO 1300 Series ![]()
- Encrypted access (PKI) to the Internet network (TCP/IP) and creation of a Virtual Private Network (VPN) by using SENTINELLE connection boxes.
- Secure message service and secure browsing on Internet.
- Document server secure electronic time-dating.
A variety of specialties are involved in the global security of companies. Sagem Sécurité proposes these specialties in global turnkey contracts through its MorphoSecure systems.
MorphoSecure is a modular multi-service system; it can be used to choose a tailored solution for the following fields, by selecting only the necessary applications:

MorphoSecure uses Local Processing Units (LPU) connected through computer network(s) (Internet technologies, local wired network, Wi-Fi network). A local processing unit may include video surveillance, peripheral or volumetric detectors (contacts, shock detectors, heat detectors, radar, infrared barriers, etc.). The system displays drawings of the premises on screens with symbols representing intrusions or other events, a video of the premises in which an intrusion was detected, etc. The system has a wide range of capacities with up to 2 million alarm points, 10 000 drawings of premises and 4 096 local processing units, controlled by a powerful management software (PCWNT).
Sagem Sécurité has a wide range of terminals, components and software used to build biometric access control systems as a whole or for OEM sales.
MorphoAccess is a physical access control terminal based on fingerprints enabling identification (1 among N) and multiple authentication (identity confirmation).
It can operate alone or networked and provides a "Plug and Play" solution adapted to existing access control systems. Contactless card readers may be available depending on the model. There is a version for indoors installations and another version (Outdoor MorphoAccess) for outdoors installations.
