XPressEntry Biometric Authentication

XPressEntry compatible biometric handheld readers feature facial recognition, iris, or fingerprint identification technology enhancing identity authentication for high security areas.

Controlling access to areas requiring security clearances is serious business. National security, public safety, trade secrets, and workplace safety and security are all on the line. Safety and security professionals understand the important and time-consuming work of keeping these secured spaces safe and secure. Being that high security areas come in all different shapes and sizes from government buildings to airports and laboratories, it is a real challenge to control access to these spaces. With the power of XPressEntry compatible biometric handheld readers, safety and security professionals can confidently control access to and manage any secured space.

XPressEntry is the industry leading handheld, mobile solution for access control systems and can perform biometric verification and multi-factor authentication. When safety and security professionals need to be absolutely certain who is trying to gain access, XPressEntry compatible handheld biometric readers can quickly perform multi-factor authentication, be it with any combination of facial recognition, iris, fingerprint, badge validation, and PIN access. If connectivity is lost, XPressEntry with biometric authentication can continue to function offline, authenticating people from an offline database or from biometrics stored in personnel badges.

Most likely your facility already has a physical access control system (PACS) and these world-class access control systems do an excellent job of determining who has access to the premises. However, there are many uses for handheld authentication beyond just getting in a door. Company shuttles, employee trainings, vehicle gates, temporary gates, employee checks by guards, events, and many more. XPressEntry compatible biometric handhelds provide tremendous flexibility and make these use cases possible anywhere. Traditional physical access control systems (PACS) are limited by the static, physical placement of the badge readers onsite at the main entrance and other tracked entry / exit points. Why only secure the perimeter when XPressEntry can help improve security anywhere? Today more than ever, organizations have both ethical and legal responsibilities to take security seriously. Adding XPressEntry compatible biometric handheld readers can significantly improve safety and security.

• Record and view entry / exit info – Facial recognition, iris, or fingerprint verification of personnel and visitor in addition to badges, government IDs, from anywhere. View real-time entry and exit activity of all users throughout complex facilities. Even enroll new personnel and visitors into the access control database from anywhere keeping a complete and accurate count of everyone onsite.
  
• Real-time updates with database – With so much going on with daily operations, keeping security and essential emergency personnel up to date with the latest information is critical for site security. XPressEntry compatible handheld biometric readers are constantly syncing all personnel and visitor activity, occupancy, and safe statuses with the existing physical access control system (PACS) via cellular or WiFi connectivity.
• Offline entry/exit recording – In the slim chance that both cellular and WiFi connectivity are lost, XPressEntry will continue to record all occupancy statuses and store them locally in offline mode to ensure that no personnel and visitor statuses are lost. Once cellular or WiFi connectivity has been restored, all recorded data will be automatically synced with the XPressEntry server and physical access control system (PACS) keeping everyone and everything up to date.
• Rugged handheld readers – XPressEntry offers a variety of compatible handheld biometric readers with many different options for different business applications. For example, the XPID200 PDA is held like a cell phone in the palm of your hand while the XPID201 GUN has a handle and is held like a pistol. Both handheld readers are dust, heavy rain, and snow resistant and are rated to survive multiple drops from 1.5 meters. Other compatible handhelds are available.
• Ubiquitous badge reading capability – Future proof your complete access control solution while supporting legacy systems at the same time. XPressEntry handhelds proudly read more badge technologies than any other handheld in the industry including SEOS, iClass, Prox, Casi, Indala, Mifare, PIV, and DESFire EV2 and can simultaneously poll for both HF and LF credentials. XPressEntry handheld readers offers the greatest flexibility and compatibility for current and future physical access control systems (PACS).
• Certified security system integration – XPressEntry integrates natively and has been proudly certified by more than 30 industry leading physical access control systems (PACS) such as Software House, LenelS2, Honeywell, Genetec, Identiv, AMAG, Keyscan, RS2, Galaxy, Open Options, Maxxess, and many more.

Don’t have a physical access control system (PACS) onsite? No problem. XPressEntry also works as a stand-alone solution, fully managed by the XPressEntry Server. XPressEntry handheld readers validate permissions and authenticate credentials or biometrics against the identity information on record in the access control system database or XPressEntry Server from anywhere, record entries and exits where door readers are not practical or available, challenge credentials from within secured spaces, spot check permissions to deter tailgating / piggybacking, quickly muster employees during an emergency evacuation, maintain facility occupancy information, and much more.

XPressEntry handheld readers proudly lead the industry with the most access control integrations and proudly lead the industry with the broadest support for badge technologies plus biometrics.
