Access Control

A unified access control system provides comprehensive, centralized management of entry to company premises – from the reception area to high-security zones. Each user can be assigned a single identification medium or a combination of different ones. The system enables access restriction and monitoring, maintaining accurate records of all entries and entry attempts – who entered, where, and when.

Room occupancy (roll call) records are updated based on registrations at Access Control readers or Time and Attendance terminals. For the functionality to operate, a room must be defined, and entry and exit readers assigned. Registration at an entry reader adds a person to the list of those present, while registration at an exit reader removes them from the list. The functionality is used to ensure occupational health and safety and for evacuation purposes.

Access Control is part of the Time and Attendance system and is closely linked to time tracking. Users employ the same identification medium for both systems, which means user data and access rights are shared, reducing duplicate work and minimizing the risk of errors. In specific cases, the Time and Attendance terminal can also be used for door access.

The visitor announcement and reception system for company premises is part of a comprehensive security system. The process is digitally supported with two modules – the online and/or internal visit announcement and the visitor reception at the front desk.

Employees can announce guests themselves and reserve meeting rooms, or direct them to the company’s website, which features an integrated online form for entering visit details that are automatically transferred to the system. The system also provides an overview of all announced visits and guests.

The receptionist registers visitors at the front desk, issues ID cards for door access on the day of the visit, and manages their consent forms. When a visitor leaves, the receptionist closes the visit record, ensuring that the list of currently present visitors is always up to date.

Regular security rounds are essential for preventing security risks and reducing unnecessary costs in business premises, such as lights left on, open windows, or the risk of burglary. To effectively monitor and supervise the work of security staff, the KADRIS 4 Access Control patrol system is used, allowing security officers to record their patrols via the dedicated KADRIS 4 Security mobile app. Patrols are logged at terminals installed at designated checkpoints, while the control center gains a comprehensive overview of all completed patrols. This system ensures a higher level of security and greater efficiency in managing security tasks in the business environment.

Using lockers with ID cards is simple for employees, while administrators have an overview of locker occupancy. Access Control allows alarms to be triggered in case of a break-in and provides event and status reports, improving overall supervision. In addition, it enables companies to optimize locker maintenance costs.

Using ID cards to open key lockers enables control and monitoring of access. This solution is suitable for all environments where electronic locking is not required or not economically viable.

Logical Access Control using smart ID media and passwords ensures the security of information systems and computers. The system requires appropriate ID media, readers, software, and public key infrastructure (PKI). For the highest level of security, it is recommended to combine a physical ID medium, a unified media database, and a Single Sign-on (SSO) system. Users must handle their ID cards with care, as they cannot use their computer without them, and the system automatically logs them out when leaving the office. To ensure information system security, sharing of cards and passwords is strictly prohibited.
