Access Control System

Facilities require high-speed access to multiple passages, while also requiring locking mechanisms for less frequently used areas with different access requirements.

The Solution

Offline and Online Access locks cater to both scenarios in a facility, providing online access card readers for frequent use and offline electronic door locks with integrated readers and batteries for infrequent use, eliminating the need for cabling.

Why use Offline, Online Access?

• Provides heightened security in both online and offline areas through authorized and updatable access cards.
• Users do not have to differentiate between presenting their access card on an online or offline card reader.
• Combining online and offline card readers creates a secure and flexible closing plan.
• Access cards provide information on the status of offline electronic locks.

IPROTECT follows the core principle of “mobile is key” by supporting mobile devices. This applies to both using and creating/assigning rights to locks and individuals.

Access management

Access management to a building:

• One mobile app for our online readers and DOM locks for Android and iOS.
• Simplification of card handling process for access control systems which unburdens system administrators and end-users in both an operational and logistical way.
• No physical card management needed for mobile devices.
• Data on mobile – Access rights and events are sent directly to or from the mobile device.
• Heightened security of the building with your mobile as a key.

Setup and update management

Setup and update management of hardware such as locks and readers:

• Use mobile app to update locks.
• Possibility to seamlessly switch from offline to online locks in order to update them.

How it works

Mobile devices are part of our everyday lives, delivering convenient solutions to fit in with our movements and actions.

The Solution

Our app links with IPROTECT Cloud, turning your phone into a key using:

• Scan&Go – allows users to open doors by holding their device within range of the reader.
• Select&Go – The system shows nearby readers and pressing the selected reader’s button opens the door.
• Background Mode – allows access without unlocking the device or opening the app.

How can the mobile application benefit my facility?

• Easy registration – End-users are invited through IPROTECT to the system where they will receive an invitation email with a QR code to download the mobile app and register their organization.
• Flexibility – Per reader, users can customize their phone’s usage settings. This includes options such as requiring the phone to be unlocked prior to use, opening doors within a specified distance, or directly presenting the phone for specific tasks.
• Our app is multilanguage supported on Android and iOS.
• Storing multiple organizations – Supports multiple organizations, allowing for easier access to facilities for tenants or visitors traveling between different organizations.

Managing access to individual office spaces or floors in a multi-tenant building can be challenging, particularly when multiple users are involved.

The Solution

Access Control helps property owners manage access for their tenants in a flexible and friendly way. Through distributed rights each tenant has the possibility to manage their visitors through this GDPR compliant system.

Why use Multi-Tenant solutions in my facility?

It allows you to:

• Streamline the process of access for users that run their own offices within the facility.
• Cut back on the complexity of trying to run a facility that caters to multiple different daily needs.

Multi-tenant buildings need to accommodate varying access credential preferences for tenants and visitors without the need to switch to a new type of ID or credential.

The Solution

Multi-Credentials enables secure and flexible access for visitors and employees of different companies using various technologies such as QR codes, biometrics, mobile cards, MIFARE DESfire cards, and Bluetooth. The process for creating or deleting access in IPROTECT is the same, regardless of the credential used.

How can my facility benefit from Multi-Credentials?

• Provides tenants with flexibility and ease of choosing preferred access credentials.
• Enhances security and strengthens the entrance process.
• Enables granting, changing, or restricting access through Multi-Credentials when necessary.

Efficiently managing large facilities involves combining information from multiple systems, allowing you to optimize cost savings by overseeing various locations from a single control center.

The Solution

A single central coordinating server allows a system operator to manage multiple systems through a unified user interface, providing a comprehensive overview of ongoing situations through alarms, events, and interactive floorplans.

Why Multilocations?

Along with a better overview of security operations you can:

• Share access keys between multiple servers for efficient access control.
• Combine multi-site functionality with server synchronization.
• Save time whilst stepping up the security of your facilities.
• Save money and spread risks.

Developing a system to dynamically assign user rights based on the workstation’s location is a common pain point.

The Solution

Our system adjusts user rights based on workstation and login locations, enabling control, accommodating employees in multiple locations or departments, and enhancing security measures.

Why do I need location restrictions?

• Tailor menu rights by assigning them based on the location and type of workstation.
• Login restriction (option) with person present in area to login.

How do you monitor security in an efficient way when it comes to one, or multiple facilities?

The Solution

Effectiveness is important to prevent many ‘expensive’ pagers from remaining unused in the charging station.

The Solution

By presenting an access card, an available pager is loaded with the user’s profile.

Why do I need IPROTECT to manage my Pager Management System?

• The number of pagers in use is optimized as much as possible.
• Pager number and profile managed by IPROTECT.
• Pager requests logged in IPROTECT.

Tracking resident and visitor entrants in shared parking areas enhances the efficiency of multi-tenant premises.

The Solution

This functionality allows operators to define the number of spaces for vehicles, carefully allocated for each business within your premises.

Why use Parking Management for my facility?

• Define quota or ‘blocks’ of spaces to registered visitors using passes.
• Count the number of vehicles currently parked using entry and exit tracking.
• Reject tenant parking when max allocation has been reached.
• Switch parking lots between tenants and implement a streamlined end-of-month billing system for convenience and flexibility.

Situations change daily and the threat management level of your facility needs to be appropriately set for different times.

The Solution

With Threat Management Level, functionalities can be adjusted when the situation is appropriate.
For example:

• Whether or not to use a pin code.
• Changing normal access to remote access through the intervention of a control room (video verification).
• Being able to block certain groups of people, for example, visitors.

Why do I need to consider the Threat Management Level of my facility?

Facilities can have a systematic and controlled approach to stay on top of potential threats in many different forms, requiring constant monitoring.

Send events to another system, with options to customize the event type and content.

The Solution

With the JSON push transaction webservice it is possible to send IPROTECT transactions in JSON format to an external system like an “Elastic Stack”. It is possible to specify precisely which transactions are sent and what data is added.

What is the benefit of Push transaction?

• By defining the event types and their relevant data to be sent, only necessary information is stored.
• End user is independent in choosing database type for storage events.
• End user is independent when making a choice of type of tooling for making overviews/reports.

Leaving or returning to an area can pose security issues, such as visitors sharing passes, users attempting re-entry, and exceeding time limits.

The Solution

IPROTECT streamlines facility management by offering different security features for access control.

How does it work?

• APB: Refuses access when a person tries to enter an area (door) when the registered person is already inside.
• TAPB: Access is denied when a person tries to enter an area again within a certain time.
• TAPB Reversed: Access is denied when a person exceeds a time limit in a location making leaving the area not possible.

The two-man rule is a solution designed to achieve a high level of security for operations and actions that require two or more authorized persons at all times.

The Solution

An alarm will sound if the two-person requirement is not met, either due to unaccompanied visitors or insufficient personnel in the area.

Why consider a Two Man Rule?

• Within a facility, different areas can have different authorization levels.
• In some areas, two authorized persons must always be present.
• Certain visitors must be accompanied by authorized persons when they want to enter the area.

A secure, productive, and efficient method for opening and closing doors is critical for your facility’s controlled atmosphere, clean rooms, or heightened security solution.

The Solution

Interlocking is a highly effective security measure that ensures only one of multiple doors is open at a time. It provides secure access control and sends a ‘wait’ signal, allowing the door to be opened only when the other one is closed.

Why Interlocking for my facility?

• Secure and controlled access to areas.
• Controlled conditions when operating with atmospheric challenges.
• Detection and identification in secure areas.
• Preventing tailgating of unauthorized visitors.

The importance of guard control rounds cannot be understated for building security, especially in security-sensitive areas where proper planning of rounds and routes is crucial.

The Solution

Guard Tour allows guards to walk pre-determined control rounds within a certain time during their shift with multiple predefined routes that can be set to your facility preferences.

What benefit will Guard Tour bring to my business?

• Register reporting point times via card readers, with minimum and maximum times.
• Receive automatic alarms for deviations, prompting swift action.
• Efficiently monitor predetermined areas with heightened awareness.

In monitored premises, tracking and controlling every movement is impossible. Yet, knowing the movements and routes of visitors and employees is essential.

The Solution

Walk Route allows a person to walk from A to B while the system checks if they follow the specified walking route within a certain time. The system will sound an alarm if there are any deviations.

Why do I need Walk Route?

• Define a route for visitors/employees.
• Strict control over access areas.
• With one button, you can pause all walking routes, simplifying operational management.
