Identiscan

1 January 2015 Products & Solutions, Access Control & Identity Management

Manual visitor record books are ineffective as the information is inaccurate and mostly illegible. The typical visitor book is not PoPI compliant. The solution to these problems is Identiscan.

Visitor Identity is crucial to the effective security of an estate or complex. Identiscan’s electronic visitor management system (EVMS) is the answer to this problem. All data is encrypted and stored offsite on a secure server. The guard, using the Identiscan scanner, is correctly identified by his own fingerprint before he can collect data. This security feature ensures accountability for the scanner as well as allocating the access record to the specific guard. No longer can a staff member say “It wasn’t me who let the visitor in”.

Electronic visitor logs can be emailed daily to management in order that visitor patterns can be analysed and suspicious tendencies identified. A Web portal is provided for remote log-in and data is searchable. For example, it is feasible to search by vehicle make, model, colour, ID number, name etc.

Black and white listing of persons or vehicles is possible to alert guards when the vehicle or persons' ID or driver’s licence is scanned.
