HOW DOES IT WORK?
BioStar Access Control Software integrates hardware devices (like biometric scanners, access card readers, and controllers) with a centralized software platform to manage and enforce access rules. Here’s how it works step-by-step:
User Enrollment:
Users register their personal identification in the system data such as:
User profiles create their access permissions specifying roles and schedules.
Access Devices Integration:
Access points (doors, gates, turnstiles, etc.) have Suprema access control hardware like:
These devices connect to the BioStar system via a local network.
Setting Access Rules:
- Administrators configure rules in the BioStar software, including:
- Who: Specific individuals or groups allowed access.
- Where: Specific doors, rooms, or zones they can access.
- When: Time-based schedules or shifts for access permissions.
- How: Authentication method (e.g., fingerprint only or fingerprint + PIN).
Access Devices in Action:
When a user approaches an access point:
- The terminal scans their credentials (e.g., fingerprint, face, card).
- The system verifies the input against the registered data.
- The door unlocks if the credentials match and comply with the access rules.
- If not, access is denied, and the event is logged.
Real-Time Monitoring:
The software provides real-time visibility of:
- User access events (who accessed, where, and when).
- Alerts for denied access or suspicious activity.
- Device status and connectivity.
Data Logging and Reporting:
- All-access events record a centralized database.
- Administrators can generate reports for:
- Compliance audits.
- Investigating security incidents.
- Monitoring employee attendance or movement.
Integration with Other Systems:
- BioStar can work alongside other security systems, such as:
- CCTV Systems: Trigger cameras to record upon access events.
- Intrusion Alarms: Notify security staff of breaches.
- Building Management Systems: Automate lights, HVAC, etc., based on occupancy.
