 Access control technology to come with password management system thanks to Ingersoll and Access Smart
The offering allows customers to use their contact-less credentials for more than just access control

Ingersoll Rand Security Technologies, a leading global provider of security and safety solutions and manufacturer of Schlage contact-less cards and readers, and Access Smart, LLC, a leading provider of secure password management solutions, are partnering to offer customers secure password management combined with access control.

These solutions provide users with the convenience of never having to remember or type another password and freeing IT departments from the cost and hassle of continually resetting passwords.

The offering provides customers with options to use their contact-less credentials for more than just access control. Access Smart's products enable customers to have an easily deployable solution for secure network authentication with a low cost of ownership. The flexibility of Access Smart's solution combined with Schlage's multi-technology readers, which read both proximity and smart cards, provides customers with a truly powerful solution.

 "End users are looking for innovative solutions for password management and Access Smart is a leading provider in this space," said John Menzel, Director of Business Development for Ingersoll Rand Security Technologies. "We are pleased to partner with Access Smart to bring pioneering solutions to the market."

"Combining Ingersoll Rand's card technology with ours was a direct response to our customers' need for a multi-functional secure ID badge," said Dovell Bonnett, founder and CEO of Access Smart. "We provide businesses with a low cost of ownership solution that protects both network and physical perimeter security."
