Access control systems are
the latest security for businesses. These security systems can be connected
wirelessly to smartphones and the Internet. Only people with access to the
building will be able to open them. In fact, these locks are so secure, the average
burglar will be unable to get past them. Not only are these locks secure, they
are also convenient. Employees can access rooms easily, and visitors can be
given temporary access wirelessly on their devices. Access control systems are
the wave of the future.
State of the Art Security
Most modern access control
systems have the same security standard as banks do for online transactions.
This is 128-bit AES encryption. That's secure enough to protect all types of
Internet traffic from hackers including locking and unlocking commands.
AES was developed by the
National Institutes of Standards and Technology. They needed a successor to
Data Encryption Standard (DES) and began work on AES in 1997. It would become
the encryption standard for the U.S. government. It protects classified
information.
AES is a symmetric block
cipher. This is a type of text encryption that uses a cryptographic key and
algorithm on a group of data instead of just one bit.
So Convenient that You
Don't Have to Do Anything
Access control systems can
lock and unlock automatically when a person approaches it. In fact, the person
can keep their smartphone inside their pocket, and the lock will detect its
presence. After detecting it, the Access control system will open. After closing
the door, the lock will automatically trigger after the person walks away. It's
that simple.
If you prefer holding a
device near the door, you can do that as well. Most access control systems will detect the
smartphone if it is held near it. This is a more natural way to interact with
the door. When you become familiar with the Access control system, you can keep
the smartphone inside your pocket and open the door as if there isn't a lock on
it.
You Won't Need a Key - Use
Your Smartphone
Access control systems
reduce the number of keys you have to carry with you. The employees of the
company may have two or three new keys when they start working. With access
control systems, the employee needs a smartphone, and they could use the one
they currently used for work or personal use.
All of the benefits and
better security.
Considering all of the
benefits of access control systems and their affordability these days its no
wonder why so many business owners are choosing to install them on their
properties. The question now is, will you consider installing an access control
system on your commercial property?
