To effectively implement the Security policies within an organisation we should consider the various functions available from most Access Control systems. Both surveillance and intrusion systems are fundamentally preventative methods of controlling an area whereas Access Control has to guarantee speedy access while preventing unauthorised admission.
From a technological point of view one of the priorities of any system should be to correctly identify authorised users, using ID’s (cards, tags, keys), PIN’s or by using some biometric method. This last method, biometry, is by far the most secure but is also the slowest which means many end users still opt for cards and tags. These have several advantages over physical keys: they are harder to copy, permissions can be dynamically changed, they can be scheduled for different requirements and they can quickly be removed if lost or stolen.
Three principal types of Access Control Systems are available:
