Static access control systems no longer fit into our flexible living world
Why should an access management solution change flexibly with the situations that arise in an organisation?
Access management today is so much more than what access control used to be. Our world is changing rapidly and is also subject to external situations such as Covid-19 or a terrorist threat.
The digitalisation of our organisations is in full swing, which is why access control is not just a control solution but a complete management system.
Receiving visitors via an automated digital flow, automating and opening up parking facilities to a wider public, managing the occupancy of your buildings flexibly and automatically ... all examples of an access management solution anno 2022.
What if an emergency occurs? What about notifications from other security or technical systems? What if there is a certain threat level? Your access management must be able to deal with this flexibly.
In our Synguard open management platform, different access zones can be pre-configured to trigger different access management actions, automatically or manually, in certain situations.
Buildings today are used much more widely, often by visitors or tenants who are not familiar with the environment. Therefore, the access management system must be able to go even further in order to manage this properly and safely.
Hospitals are a good example; they are constantly faced with unpredictable situations and external factors. If a crisis arises that shifts the hospital into a different phase of operation, the access management system must also adapt to the situation.
And this without the need for additional, time-consuming configuration changes, as employees have other priorities at the time.
