Installing an access control system into your business environment is a way of protecting your property, your personnel, and your visitors. - You will be in control because you will manage access to (and from) any area of your building(s), however large or small.
- Access control gives you the flexibility to restrict entry to designated areas inside your building if and when necessary.
- Unlike keys and locks, by using the latest technologies in access control, you will be able to appoint, change, or remove access privileges, either to individuals or groups, anywhere in your organization, anytime.
Traditional ways of Access Control:
There are many ways by which an organization can take control of who goes in and out, when and where. The traditional ways of access control like security guards, keys and locks, magnetic stripe cards, and key pass codes are becoming less and less popular among big corporations for the simple reason of there vulnerabilities and obvious prone to errors.
Examples of errors caused by the traditional ways of access control:
- Lack of assurance that human security guards will always be there when people try to access a room or a facility.
- Keys can get lost or changing the locks can cause unwanted hassle especially when there are many key holders.
- Door passcodes can be forgotten.
Advanced ways of Access Control:
Fortunately, new access control technologies have emerged where security vulnerabilities and errors are minimized, if not eliminated. For example:
Biometrics:
which is the science and technology of authenticating and identifying individuals by measuring their human body characteristics such as irises, voice patterns, facial patterns, and hand measurements. This type of authentication is convenient when extreme security and control is required.
SecuTronic offers the most popular iris recognition system by LG Electronics; the LG IrisAccess 4000.
RFID Cards:
Radio Frequency Identification Cards (also known as Proximity Cards) are plastic cards (very similar to credit cards) that are embedded with tiny antennas to transmit data to a reader via radio frequency. This type of authentication is used when a good level of security mixed with total convenience is required.
SecuTronic offers the complete security management and RFID Card Access Control System from Nedap; Nedap-AEOS.
