In our fast-paced world, combining convenience and security is essential. Mobile access control is transforming how businesses and property owners enhance safety by utilizing the technology everyone carries—the mobile phone. At acre security, we are experts in leveraging mobile technology to create streamlined, cost-effective, and user-friendly security solutions.
What is Mobile Access Control?
Mobile access control systems let users unlock doors and access secured areas using smartphones instead of traditional key cards or fobs. Stored digitally, mobile credentials can be accessed via an app, QR code, or secure link, simplifying operations and enhancing security with remote management and real-time control.
How Do Mobile Access Control Systems Work?
Mobile credentials are digital keys stored on smartphones. Security staff issue these credentials, linked to each user through an app or link. To unlock a door, users activate the app and bring their phone close to the reader, which uses Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, or NFC technology to grant access. Some systems allow touchless access with proximity readers, offering both convenience and advanced technology by allowing administrators to revoke access remotely if a phone is lost or stolen.
Why Mobile Access Control is Essential for Modern Businesses
- Enhanced Security: Mobile access control offers superior security compared to traditional key cards, which can be lost or cloned. Modern smartphones include advanced security features like biometric authentication and encryption, providing multiple layers of protection. Admins can implement multi-factor authentication for added security.
- Streamlined Operations: Issuing and revoking credentials is simplified with mobile credentials, managed remotely through a cloud-based portal. This reduces the need for distributing physical badges or keys, cutting administrative costs, and boosting efficiency, enabling businesses to focus on growth.
- Cost-Effective: Mobile access control reduces costs by eliminating the need to print and distribute physical cards or fobs. Mobile credentials are digital, minimizing material costs and reducing the labor needed to manage lost credentials.
The Convenience of Wallet Credentials
Have you considered how much time you spend with your mobile device each day? Many are surprised to find it amounts to hours, not minutes. Whether you see your device as a tool or an extension of yourself, we are constantly engaged with them due to their convenience. If you're not using your smartphone Wallet yet, we assure you, once you experience its convenience, you'll wonder why you didn't start sooner.
Consider the Wallet feature on your smartphone. It simplifies managing personal and work tasks, as well as entertainment. Common uses of Wallet include:
- Credit Card
- Airline Boarding Pass
- Comedy Show Ticket
- Restaurant Gift Card
- Hotel Room Key
- Digital Credential for an office
Notice there are two digital access credentials—one for a hotel and another for the office. How often have you misplaced a physical credential or forgotten your work badge? Digital keys offer unmatched convenience.
