    SCENARIO Please use the following to answer the next question:

    customer service when sales people are interacting with customers.

    a built-in verification technology involving facial recognition each time they log in.

    All monitoring data, including the facial recognition data, is securely stored in Microsoft Azure cloud servers operated by Sauron Eye, which are physically located in France.
