The company's security team, name -Google's security and elastic service (GSRS) will use data to identify potential security risks. The system collects facial data from the indoor security camera and compares them to the employees' badge image. "Protocols are in place to identify, report and potentially remove known unauthorized individuals to keep our people and facilities safe," Google said in a document, CNBC reported.

Although the company says the data is "strictly for immediate use and not for storage," some employees of the Kirkland office have raised privacy concerns. Business internal representatives reported that the employee described the new system as "a bit anti -outopia".  "Many of Google's saved face data," Business Insider said. \ "Data is very valuable."

Although the Cockeland test staff -in the second equipment that they enter the building cannot choose to leave face screening, they may need the ID emblem to keep it without a storage comparison. Google has faced safety issues in the past, including an incident in 2018 when a woman opened fire at YouTube headquarters in San Bruno, California, injuring three people.

The company has recently implemented other security measures, such as fencing off parts of its headquarters in Mountain View, California. Some employees speculate that the new system could be a response to recent protests against Google's $1.2 billion joint contract with Amazon to provide services to the Israeli government. As a result of these protests, employees were arrested and fired. A Google spokesman said Business Insider that the company has "tested and introduced new systems and protection measures to help our employees and space as safe as possible".
