Managing Permissions Has Never Been Smarter—Or Easier 

Keeping a business safe doesn’t mean simply catching crime when it happens. Your security system should be stopping crime before it ever enters the door. 

Access control systems let you manage who can and cannot enter your property using methods like locks and keys, key cards, or PIN codes. While access control isn’t a new phenomenon—even ancient societies used rope knots and wooden locks—the technology is only ever getting smarter. 

With advancements in AI and cloud computing, access control is easier than ever to customize, monitor, and deploy. More DFW businesses are investing in smart access control solutions for a simpler, safer experience. 

Here’s a look at new access control technology, available in DFW from Texadia Systems.

Cloud-Based Control 

Thanks to platforms like iCloud and Google Photos, most people today are familiar with using the cloud: a remote server that stores your information. Rather than plug your phone into a thumb drive to access files, it’s stored remotely on Apple or Google servers, available whenever you have Wi-Fi. 

But the cloud isn’t limited to photos and files; your business’s access control system and security data can also be managed on the cloud

Cloud-based systems like Verkada, OpenPath, and Kisi make it easy to get started and expand storage later on. You don’t need to maintain your own servers; your access control provider will handle it for you instead. All your access readers, security cameras, alarms, and more will integrate with the platform, all visible from one centralized user management dashboard. 

You’re free to log in from your computer, smartphone, or tablet to remotely create new users, customize rules, and permit or revoke access to specific users. Everything you need is there for you in one place, helping you reduce on-site storage hardware. 

 

New Credentials Options 

While ID cards, fobs, and PIN codes have been the standard for years (and are still popular) consider these new, ultra-secure credential methods. 

Mobile Access 

Most people have their smartphone on them at all times—why not use them to unlock entrances or garage gates? Mobile readers use Bluetooth or NFC (Near Field Communication) to recognize authorized devices and unlock doors hands-free. Mobile readers reduce the risk of lost or stolen cards, and the tedious process of replacing cards or keys. 

Plus, people won’t have to stop to hold their phone up to the reader (unless you want them to). Bluetooth readers can detect phones from yards away, so people breeze through without stopping. 

And for those who would rather not use a smartphone, they can carry an ID card and tap that instead. We can even integrate a badge printer with your system to make the entire process easier. 

Your administrators can update user access remotely any time, adding or removing staff from a central online dashboard. Systems like Verkada, OpenPath, and Kisi let you create custom rules and tiered access, grouping users to quickly adjust permissions in large batches. 

Biometrics 

While they were once only a figment of science fiction, biometric readers are already being used in schools and businesses nationwide. If your company has restricted areas with sensitive information or assets, consider implementing facial, fingerprint, hand, or retina readers. 

Biometric readers work by recognizing distinct measurements unique to each person in your system. If someone is labeled a threat in your system and then tries to enter, the biometric readers will instantly recognize them and notify your security system. Biometric credentials can’t be forged or lost, making them a foolproof method for access control. 

And your staff need not worry about data security risks. Cloud-based systems from top brands like Verkada, OpenPath, and Kisi are encrypted and routinely patched to safeguard your data. 

Vehicle & License Plate Recognition 

Access control isn’t limited to the building only! We can expand your access control system to include car and license plate readers so you can manage which vehicles may enter your garage or parking lot. Video analytics quickly read plate numbers to verify the user’s permission, letting the car roll in without stopping to fumble with an ID card or PIN code. 

Adding or removing verified cars is simple with the cloud-based management system. If you struggle with unauthorized vehicles taking parking spots in your lot or garage, an access control system ensures only verified cars can enter. 

 

Not Just Seeing, But Analyzing with AI 

New AI software utilizes your access control readers to gather and organize helpful data. You’ll gain access to detailed analytics, including arrival patterns, daily presence, occupancy rates, user behavior, and activity heat maps. 

Let’s say your security team suspects something unusual is happening after hours. You can quickly search and locate activity feeds for evening hours and see who’s coming and going in certain areas. You can swiftly locate timestamps, user ID logs, or door events to find the moment you’re looking for. 

Today’s advanced access control systems are like your own personal detective, helping you keep your DFW business safe while quickly answering your questions.
