4 Reasons Why You Need to upgrade Your Access Control System





We see it in movies and television shows: businesses or government officials beating themselves up after discovering a crime has happened right under their noses. They try their best to pursue the perpetrator who managed to breach their security protocols and steal or damage their critical assets.

Can the business recover from the damage? At what cost? Or is it too late?

These fictional heists may tickle people’s fancy but these security breaches inflict real damage and danger in real life. These infractions result in the loss of millions of dollars and sometimes even lives or property.

Many businesses invest in some form of an access control system to protect their critical assets. However, most of these systems are only effective up to a certain point.


Access control system

Here are 4 reasons why you need to change your access control system


https://youtu.be/O0mkc2Zml5U

1) Most security systems are power-dependent

Circumstances outside of your control can affect the reliability of the access control systems during downtime or shutdown. Make sure your access control system is capable of running in times of extraordinary circumstances to ensure the integrity of your facilities


2)  Most security systems are not fool-proof

Users can easily share or lose their credentials. A lost RFID card can compromise your entire system. Employees sharing access devices with colleagues or contractors can also increase the risk of theft and vandalism in organizations. You need a system that actively prevents any unauthorized intrusions.


3)   The usual access control systems that businesses invest in are reactive

They can only monitor and capture videos, but do not actively prevent anyone from attacking your assets. By the time you detect an anomaly or crime, the people behind these breaches are long gone. Imagine someone breaking into a factory armed only with CCTV cameras. By the time the guard on duty notices something going on in a part of the factory, the damage is done

4)     Hackers evolve faster than technology and access control is a bit like an arms race

Technologies that rely on active communication with a server in order to validate access are all hackable. Imagine an access control system that does not rely on network connectivity and validation, leaving no room for hackers to attack.

Having a reliable access control system integrated into your business means having more time to focus on your operations rather than running around trying to control security incidents.

Look for a reliable access control system that is robust enough to prevent physical or digital attacks on your assets. This system should also be easy to integrate with your existing enterprise systems to ensure the smooth flow of operations.

Face Recognition Access Controls Technology Design Background A facial recognition  reader  is a technology capable of  identifying  or  verifying  a person from a  digital image  or a  video frame  from a  video  source. There are multiple methods in which facial recognition systems work, but in general, they work by comparing selected  facial features  from given image with faces within a  database . It can provide high accuracy of user identification with an additional card reader as an alternative way of identification, which meets the requirements for Access Control. While initially a form of computer  application , it has seen wider uses in recent times on mobile platforms and in other forms of technology, such as robotics. It is typically used as access control in  security systems  and can be compared to other  biometrics  such as  fingerprint  or eye  iris recognition  systems. Although the accuracy of facial recognition reader as a biometric technology is

SECURITY ACCESS MANAGEMENT SYSTEM BY ONE TOUCH CONTROLS   1.1             System Design Concept Security Access Management System  (SAMS) will be used to control and monitor the movement of personnel through security doors or roller shutters within the premises. The SAMS is designed based on individual concept and each door will have an individual Slave Access Control Unit (SACU) located above each doors (Figure 1). The SACU at each will connect to door accessories such as electromagnetic lock, door sensor, emergency break glass, push button, card reader and override key switch. The SACU will control and monitor the door accessories operation based on command from Master Access Control Unit (MACU). The SACU will communicate with the MACU via RS-485 communication. The connection between MACU and SACU shall follow the “Daisy Chain” pattern (Refer Figure 2).    1.2             SAMS  Door Configuration Design In SAMS, the door configuration was divided into few configu
