A new survey by Centrify shows that most IT decision makers are not prioritizing Privileged Access Management (PAM) practices and solutions, despite knowing privileged credential abuse is involved in almost three out of every four breaches.

The global market for card-based electronic access control (EAC) is projected to reach $10.1 billion by 2020 according to Global Industry Analysts.

Contactless card-based access control systems were developed to better protect facilities from unauthorized visitors, but it didn't take long for hackers to learn how to fool the system. 

Wait no longer – Proven IP access management solutions are becoming more available and practical.

For high-traffic locations, this biometric identification system can be integrated into existing security systems, adding face capture and dual-iris recognition components to turnstiles, infrastructures or entrances.

This biometric card quickly reads a user’s fingerprint in less than one second for access control, and it eliminates the problems of depending on PINs and standard cards.

 Among the worst things to hear: “I can’t find the master key.” Whether lost or stolen, that situation triggers a long and expensive process of rekeying. Perhaps this is the last straw pushing your enterprise toward an electronic access control solution. 

After a burglar stole a set of keys to the Tower of London, the corresponding locks have been changed and officials are reviewing security protocols.

A majority of security professionals believe that there is much to gain by integrating data from traditional physical security devices and systems, including access control, video, RFID, GPS, sensors and building management systems, in to one common operating picture.
