In Part I of this two-part article, “Defining Basic Tailgating Prevention Capabilities and Goals,” we organized different types of pedestrian security entrances into four distinct Capability Levels for combatting tailgating: Crowd Control, Deterrent, Detection and Prevention. We showed that each level has a different impact on an organization in terms of capital cost and whether security staff are recommended based on the entrance location and the need to respond to jumping over, crawling under, or other tailgating infractions. 

Not all security entrances work the same way. Their different capabilities, therefore, have an impact on an organization’s overall anti-tailgating strategy in terms of capital outlay, manpower needed, annual operating costs, ROI, and user education and preparation.

While these recorders can function as traditional standalone NVRs, they were purposefully built to leverage the power of the cloud, enabling virtual elimination of software client installation and upgrades, simplified user permissions management, improved remote connectivity through a single universal sign-on, and improved ability to export and share video clips.

The typical types of access control at industrial and manufacturing organizations are card access and video at the highest level, with tightly controlled time and attendance and visitor management.

While standalone devices may be more cost-effective for the business to install, they aren’t the right fit for all applications.
