In the current fast-paced and security-conscious world, the importance of effective access control cannot be overstated.

Organisations across various industries recognise the need to protect their premises, assets, and sensitive information from unauthorised access. 

Advanced access control 

While traditional lock and key systems have been the norm for a long time, they often fall short of meeting the evolving security challenges of the modern age.

To address these limitations, advanced access control features have emerged as crucial components of a comprehensive security infrastructure.

Robust security and operational efficiency

These advanced features provide enhanced control over access to sensitive areas and mitigate risks effectively

Matrix explores a range of cutting-edge access control features that play a vital role in ensuring robust security and operational efficiency within organisations.

These advanced features are specifically designed to address the unique security concerns of different industries, providing enhanced control over access to sensitive areas and mitigating risks effectively. 

Features

Let's delve into the advanced access control features that are setting the standard in modern security systems:

  • Absentee Rule: Automatically disables or denies access to users after a maximum number of days of non-use of their ID or credential.
  • Occupancy Control: Monitors and controls the number of users permitted within a secured area or controlled zone.
  • Use Count Control: Blocks a user's credential after the maximum number of authorized uses within a specified time.
  • Dead Man Zone: Tracks user safety and security by requiring the display of a card or credential within a pre-defined period during specific tasks.
  • Do Not Disturb: Declares a zone as off-limits to other users for a specific period, ensuring uninterrupted activity within the zone.
  • Man Trap: Provides safety and security by locking all doors when one is opened until it returns to the closed position.
  • VIP Access: Grants VIP users special access privileges to specific doors for added security.
  • Visitor Escort: Requires all visitors to be accompanied by an escort and verifies both the visitor's and escort's credentials within a specified time.
  • Anti-Pass Back: Ensures users pass through both entry and exit readers before their ID is accepted a second time, preventing unauthorised access.
  • Guard Tour: Monitors security guard movements during specified periods to enhance security during non-working hours.
  • Access Route: Defines access policies that allow users to access specified doors in a predefined sequence or order.
  • Functional Group: Groups users with similar profiles and access policies to streamline security and access control management.
  • Time Schedule: Grants access to specific access zones within designated periods.
  • Elevator Access Control: Integrates access control with elevators to restrict access to specific areas or floors within a building.
  • Access Group: Assigns users to access groups with time zone-based access levels.
  • 2-Person Rule: Requires two valid user entries within a specified time to access a secured zone.
  • First-In User: Uses the credential of the first user who enters to unlock access to a specific zone.
  • Smart Access Route: Defines an access policy that allows users to access door controllers in a configured sequence.
  • Access Rule: Creates conditional rules for specific time durations to access doors.

Proactive approach

Investing in a robust access control system with advanced features strengthens security and reduces risks

Investing in a robust access control system with advanced features not only strengthens security but also improves operational efficiency, reduces risks, and fosters a safe environment for employees, visitors, and assets.

By leveraging these cutting-edge access capabilities, organisations can proactively protect their facilities, maintain compliance, and instill confidence in their stakeholders.

Culture of safety and trust

It is important to recognise that an effective access control system is not a one-size-fits-all solution.

Assessing organisation's unique security needs, consulting with experts, and selecting a solution that aligns with requirements is crucial. By prioritising security, organisations can mitigate risks, safeguard assets, and cultivate a culture of safety and trust.
