CyberKey Vault 20, the new key cabinet from Videx |
The Vault keeps management informed through the audit reports and alerts that are automatically sent to them. At the end of the work day, when the employee returns their electronic key to the Vault, an audit report of their entire key activity, lock openings, and exceptions such as unauthorised attempts to enter is automatically sent to management. As soon as the Vault reports back to management, the key's memory is cleared. It remains in an un-programmed state until another authorised employee presents the required RFID card or PIN identification.
The economics of the CyberKey Vault are very attractive. Inexpensive RFID cards are used to access the Vault and the electronic key. An electronic key can be shared by any number of employees, shift-to-shift. This sharing of keys and dispensing them automatically is an efficient, cost-saving way to manage a company's resources while at the same time increasing security. In addition, a ring of mechanical keys can be attached to an electronic key for safekeeping in the Vault.
CyberKey Vault communicates with CyberLock access management software and installs in any location that has a network connection so a key can be quickly updated with an individual's access schedule. A company can manage their electronic keys and access to locks at multiple on- and off-site locations from one central office.
Videx will be showcasing the new CyberKey Vault 20 at the ASIS show in October at booth number 1841.
