Enhance your company’s security with the help of a smart card-based access control system

Leave a Comment


Despite of the leaps ahead recorded over the past decades in access control technologies, the truth of the matter is that quite a lot of companies continue to use traditional physical keys to control access to their premises.

The most dangerous issue when using keys is the fact that physical keys can be easily copied at the local hardware store, making it easy for unauthorized copies to be made and used to obtain access to a locked office or storage room, without proper authorization.

Additionally, when a key is lost or stolen, it may require changing out the locks to ensure that unauthorized personnel don’t have easy access to the company’s property, which generates a monetary cost, as well as wasted time and effort to mitigate the risk.

However, if a smart-card access control system is implemented, it can be easily updated to ensure that keycard no longer has access to the facilities. In an instance where employees are given unique access codes, if a code is lost or a team member leaves the company, the system can be easily updated to remove that code. One of the greatest benefits of an access control system is the ability to not only control who has access to various sections of a company’s facilities, but also to keep access logs, so the business can monitor activity.
