Access control system plays important role in managing the security of your home, premises or other public places like hospitals or museum. Various access control system has different authentication process and different hardware and software requirement for the execution of the system. Along with this specification, it also has some specification about the capacity of the particular system as per the factors it uses for an identification process. Ranking of any system depends on the specification of the system like how accurate the system is , how much time it takes for process and what is overall maintenance cost for the software.
From log card access to fingerprints access control systems are available in the market. Sometimes it becomes difficult to choose the software as per your business needs and level of security and accuracy that you need for your home or premises. So what are those factors that you need to consider? And what are the things to keep in mind before the actual purchases of this system? Let's have detail analysis of all these factors so you can get more confidence in choosing the right system for your organization.
Gather the actual requirement
It is always a good practice to collect the actual requirement before making purchase of any products or any other security devices. A company with large no. of employees needs to focus on the factors like the accuracy of the identification and the speed of the execution of the system so they do not need wait in long queue to access the system. If you have chosen an identification system to get entry to your premises then the process time of the software became more crucial than all other factors as well. The same way places like bank and other financial sectors the security is more important than the speed of the system. No matter how much time it takes but it should track the correct entry. So the speed, time, accuracy and safety are key points to consider in purchasing any security system for your safety and management.
Do you want to know the technology or the system which can fulfill all your requirements with various aspects of points that I have explained in above paragraph? Biometric technology is a new technology which can satisfy all these requirements. Let's discuss the features of this technology with different point of view.
Accuracy in identification or authentication
It is superior to any other technology available in the market. It used biometric human features like eye retina, voice, face, fingerprints and signature. So the system uses these real human factors as an identification of any person which no one can ever crack.
Safety and the tracking activities
It delivers highest level safety because of its unique identification process based on above factors. Access control system based on biometric technology is more accurate in tracking of any activities. It tracks and stores all the activities which has been processed through system and also generated the report and fire alarm on any un-authorized event.
Speed of the system
Whether you are small company with 50 employee or big organizations with 600 employees, the execution time of the system is very low so it can process so many scan at every second. So along with better security, it also delivers least execution time for process.
Cost of the system and other hardware or software requirement
The system can synchronize with the same operating system available in the market only required to pay for some of the extra hardware components like video camera or biometric scanner. So by keep in mind the security that the system delivers the cost is minor which is not much higher than other regular access control system.
So this way the actual requirements of having any security device for your company may be vary from one to another. Each time some of the basic factors that I have explained above need to be considered before making any purchase.
