Access Control Solution
IDtech offers a robust access control solution that combines:
- Unipass, our full web-based access management software
- Modular and cybersecure access controllers
- Carefully selected third-party hardware and software
Access Control that is powerful, cybersecure, open, and scalable
IDtech's access control solution combines Unipass - our full web-based access management software, available in the cloud or on-premise - with the 500 Series Controllers, our latest generation of modular, cybersecure access controllers, and a carefully selected ecosystem of third-party hardware and software.
Together, these three layers form a complete, end-to-end access control system:
- A powerful operational core
Physically secures every door, gate, barrier, lift... - A software layer
Governs who gets through - and when, where, and why. - An open integration framework
Connects seamlessly with the wider security infrastructure already in place.
