Access Control Time Attendance

Near Field Communications (NFC) is a technology that will accelerate the use of mobile phones as electronic keys for access control. Although the technology already exists, the necessary infrastructure and assistive devices still have a long way to go. In this article, Rachel Sa from ASSA Abloy Future Labs assesses the benefits and applications of mobile contactless credentials for access control system. Mobile phones have continually offered users more tools and benefits than simply making and receiving calls. Today, our phones serve as calendars, cameras, computers, and mini video game consoles. Thanks to Near Field Communications (NFC), another valuable tool will be able to have digital keys on your mobile phone in the near future. The Benefits of Near Field Communications Mobile contactless credentials act as virtual keys or access control cards that can be stored on your mobile phone and used to lock and unlock doors. NFC (Near Field Communication) is a short-range, wireless high-

Although at a slower pace compared to countries such as the US and China, Near Field Communications (NFC) technology begins to expand in Latin America and it is a reality that has no return. In the coming years, technology will be present in daily life, in payments, check-in at a hotel, obtain information directly from a sign, and open doors, all using only the mobile device. Below are seven trends that will be incorporated into the mobile access control system industry in the coming years. TREND1: Users are looking for solutions that are based on open standards to ensure interoperability, adaptability, and portability of credentials on mobile devices. As an example, while authentication remains the main pillar of the organization's security strategy, the need for better cost and convenience will drive the development of solutions that do not require users to use multiple devices. To support this trend, credentials are being integrated into NFC-enabled phones, and identity managem

Despite fascinating trends and industry buzz around mobile technologies, wireless locks and cloud access control, more permanent and less sensational trends such as encryption and multi-technology readers are taking center stage in the access control market. The global multi-technology reader market was estimated to be worth roughly $ 33 million, up from $ 30 million next, according to the latest access control system research from IMS Research, which is now part of IHS Inc. Access Control, Fire and Security Analyst at GCTL " Although multi-technology readers have been around for many years, these devices are being installed today in more applications than ever. Historically, multi-technology readers were offered specifically for end users who requested the technology. Today, more readers come preconfigured to offer both proximity and smart card technology. This allows customers to prepare for the future, and many end users will opt for this technology, regardless of their curren
