SilverShield Safety & Information Systems, providers of the industry’s most advanced cloud-based, multi-platform solution, is featuring their new Self-Service Visitor Management Kiosk at ISC West this week. The kiosk is integrated with the SilverShield Visitor and Incident Management System to enable unmanned registration for visitors and guests.

Our Self-Service Kiosk helps organisations secure all of their entry points so they know who is on premises at all times, even those entry points that are unmanned,” said Robin Baker, CTO, SilverShield. “Even a single uncontrolled entrance could otherwise compromise the safety of the facility.”

Silent alert notifications

Visitors can self-register with the SilverShield Kiosk (SS Kiosk) using a Mac or PC computer, iOS or Android device. The process is fast and easy; users enter their credentials manually, scan their valid IDs, or scan a SilverShield Quick Badge. Once a visitor’s details are entered, SS Kiosk notifies a Kiosk Monitor (e.g., system administrator or security guard) that a visitor has completed check-in; they can then initiate access or deny access if the visitor’s details match any watchlist or sex offender entries.

If a visitor’s details are matched with any watchlist or sex offender entry, the Kiosk Monitor may initiate silent alert notifications to any stakeholders the organisation chooses. Also, if the visitor that is denied access becomes a further threat, the Kiosk Monitor can initiate any additional internal or external alarms they feel are needed (e.g., Alert Security, Hard Lockdown, etc.) which produce mass emergency notifications.

The SilverShield Self-Service Kiosk ensures that all visitors are correctly checked-in, screened and badged,” said Baker. “It’s one more way that SilverShield Systems helps keep your facility safe and secure.”
