BENEFITS OF ACCESS CONTROL TECHNOLOGY. "N°4"

BENEFITS OF ACCESS CONTROL TECHNOLOGY

Businesses that want to keep their building secure should seriously consider an access control system.
While businesses with less than 10 employees might be able to get by on traditional lock and key setups, a wide array of businesses and industries find these systems extremely beneficial. Access control can help mitigate security risks and allows a facilities department to avoid headaches. Even most retail businesses have certain areas they want restricted from customers.


  
1. Simplify Employee Turnover: High attrition businesses, apartment complexes, and college campuses can easily remove access to one individual keycard or replace a lost card without having to issue new keys to everyone.

2. Restrict Specific Areas: In most businesses, employees aren’t given full reign of every closet, office, and floor. One group, like the HR Department, might have sensitive documents and information that shouldn’t be available to all employees. Access control keycards can be set up to restrict exactly who can go where.

3. Save Energy and Money: Believe it or not, access control systems can be integrated with other building systems like lighting or even the heating and cooling system. The most advanced of these systems can tell exactly what areas of a building need light or even temperature adjustment at any given moment.

4. Protect Valuables: If your business has valuables, especially items with street value, access keycards can identify exactly who entered afterhours. This could help to catch a culprit or potentially prevent items from going missing. With regular keys, there’s no way of telling which employee unlocked the door afterhours.

5. Multi-Shift Work Environments: If you have a lot of employees constantly coming and going, managers might not be able to recognize every employee. Access cards help identify impostors and allow authorized employees to come and go without hassle.

6. Multi-Location Access: For businesses with several locations or a campus of buildings, access control can help ensure managers and workers can travel from building to building or location to location with ease.



NETWORK ACCESS CONTROL (NAC)

network access control (NAC)


Network access control (NAC), also called network admission control, is a method of bolstering the security of a proprietary network by restricting the availability of network resources to endpoint devices that comply with a defined security policy.

A traditional network access server (NAS) is a server that performs authentication and authorization functions for potential users by verifying logon information. In addition to these functions, NAC restricts the data that each particular user can access, as well as implementing anti-threat applications such as firewalls, antivirus software and spyware-detection programs. NAC also regulates and restricts the things individual subscribers can do once they are connected. Several major networking and IT vendors have introduced NAC products.

NAC is ideal for corporations and agencies where the user environment can be rigidly controlled. However, some administrators have expressed doubt about the practicality of NAC deployment in networks with large numbers of diverse users and devices, the nature of which constantly change. An example is a network for a large university with multiple departments, numerous access point s and thousands of users with various backgrounds and objectives.
