Partitioning of operator privileges
Partitioning can be used to split operator
privileges so that operators only have ac
-
cess to the fields they need to maintain.
The system can control which cardholders,
units, FLN devices and time periods can
be viewed or modified by which opera-
tors. A tree-based structure makes it easy
to drill down and select the appropriate
privileges for operator assignment. When
partitioning by cardholder, it is possible to
limit access to the workgroup field and/or
limit access to the cardholder and visitor
dialogs them
selves. The result is greater
control over
information security and the
ability to prevent unauthorized assign
-
ment of access privileges.
Cardholder data management
Entering cardholder data into the SiPass
integrated system is an easy process. If re
-
quired, you can even assign multiple cards
to a single cardholder. The custom page
design tool allows for very flexible page
layout via drag-and-drop configuration,
including parameter settings for individual
fields and buttons. It is also possible to im
-
port or export your custom pages in XML
format between SiPass integrated systems.
Escort control
SiPass integrated provides an escort con
-
trol feature (a.k.a. dual custody), which
means that before a door can be unlocked
two valid cards must be presented at
the door. This feature can be useful in
high-
security areas that require visitors
or
junior employees to be escorted by a
se curity guard or supervisor. Both self-
authorize mode and supervisor/escort
mode are available, and it is possible to
configure the on/off times and timeout.
Door interlocking
This feature makes it possible to define a
group of doors and ensures that when one
door in that group is open, none of the
others can be unlocked. Door interlocking
enables the creation of man traps and air
locks, which are often of interest in medi
-
cal, bio-tech, airport and other high-secu-
rity applications.
