Cloud-based access control is growing in popularity as more organisations are looking to adopt a flexible, convenient, and scalable security solution.

Over the last few years, the presence of the cloud has generated significant changes in the range of access control, and for good reasons! Cloud-based access control not only produces reliable, real-time control of the organisation but can also be fully integrated with third-party systems to help mitigate and limit risks within the organisation.

Access control solutions

The cloud ultimately eliminates old hardware and improves on new security protocols with minimal effort from the end-user. One of the major benefits of cloud-based access control is that it frequently leverages the power of data. Implementing a cloud-based system empowers employees to gather more data beforehand, and better prepares them to monitor their business effectively.

Cloud-based access control solutions are becoming increasingly popular. For organisations searching to upgrade their security infrastructure, remember, it’s important to select a flexible system that will integrate seamlessly with other third-party systems and support mobile access. Not only will this help to ‘future-proof’ the access control system, but it ultimately creates a safer and easier-to-use solution that can be relied on for years to come.” - Kim Loy, Chief Product Officer, ACRE.
