AlertEnterprise, Inc. the pioneering physical-logical security convergence software company, is developing the first-ever policy-based access control (PBAC) for physical security solution in partnership with BioConnect, an adaptive authentication software company for physical security.

Real-time evaluation

The new cloud-based authorisation service allows corporate security teams to deliver real-time company policy evaluation at the door and override high-risk default 24/7 badge access door behaviour.

The software seamlessly unifies workforce identities and credential information from corporate HR and Physical Access Control Systems (PACS). And with an intuitive policy wizard, it helps users configure door authorisation rules, assigning them at scale to designated access control panels and door access readers.

Partnership

As part of the new development, the company has announced a new technology partnership with BioConnect, a pioneering provider of biometric access control solutions. Together, the companies are investing in developing a first-of-its-kind solution that integrates AlertEnterprise’s PBAC cloud authorisation service with BioConnect’s Adaptive Trust Platform.

Policy-based physical access control

We believe that PBAC authorisation service will help businesses enhance security while being a real business enabler"

Our customers, including some of the world’s largest brands, have made it clear that today’s ever-changing regulatory requirements, made more complex with COVID-19, have made policy-based physical access control a key innovation for workplace access in the new era of work,” said Jasvir Gill, CEO and Founder AlertEnterprise.

We believe that PBAC authorisation service will help businesses dramatically enhance security while being a real business enabler. This is the future of physical access control and BioConnect brings a decade of expertise in the space as an ideal partner to bring this solution to market.”

Benefits of the integrated solution

Designed for large enterprises with complex infrastructures, the integrated solution retrofits existing access control panels and connects to the cloud authorisation service. This allows businesses to quickly implement dynamic authorisation for employee access to facilities according to individual credential holder work schedules, COVID-19-based policies, and any other HR or security policy.

Seamless access control

Over 1400 companies trust BioConnect to bring compliance-centric physical access solutions to their business, including many of the Fortune 100. This partnership enables BioConnect customers and prospects to benefit from Alert Enterprise’s investment in automating checks for complex regulatory requirements and will help protect our customers from risks that result in significant regulatory fines” commented Rob Douglas, CEO and Founder BioConnect.

We are entering a new era for the work environment with hybrid work/home environments becoming normal, the partnership with AlertEnterprise will seamlessly automate policy-based access control as part of our Trust Platform.”
