Software House Offers Advances in Personnel Management

Software House Offers Advances in Personnel ManagementSoftware House, part of the Security Products business unit of Tyco, is announcing a host of enhancements to its C∙CURE 9000 security and event management platform that simplify the management of personnel access. With features such as credential deactivation, custom clearances and activating events based on activity, C∙CURE 9000 v2.20 gives the ultimate flexibility in solving common personnel access issues.

Credential deactivation enables the automatic address of unused personnel cards. With C∙CURE 9000 v2.20, the system can automatically disable personnel cards that have not been used in a specified amount of time, allowing better management of employees, contractors and visitors.

C∙CURE 9000 v2.20 allows the creation of custom clearances that give individualized access to specific doors, elevators or groups of both. A custom clearance can be set up for a specific person versus changing a generic clearance for a whole group of people. For example, a custom clearance can be established for a contractor who is working on a project for a week. Once the week is over, his credentials are automatically disabled, without affecting the clearances of any other cardholder.

“The new capabilities in C∙CURE 9000 provide more intuitive ways to better manage personnel access,” said Steven Lewis, senior product manager for Software House. “These features in C∙CURE 9000 represent how we continue to advance the way you provide individualized access to your employees, contractors and visitors, creating a safer environment for your business.”

C•CURE 9000 v2.20 allows the automatic activation of an event associated with a specific person and specific doors. For example, when the president of a company arrives each morning, the system can automatically turn on the lights and HVAC, as well as send a report directly to his or her computer.

C∙CURE 9000 is available through Software House’s worldwide distribution channels.

  • From Surveillance to Intelligence

    Years ago, it would have been significantly more expensive to run an analytic like that — requiring a custom-built solution with burdensome infrastructure demands — but modern edge devices have made it accessible to everyone. It also saves time, which is a critical factor if a missing child is involved. Video compression technology has played a critical role as well. Over the years, significant advancements have been made in video coding standards — including H.263, MPEG formats, and H.264—alongside compression optimization technologies developed by IP video manufacturers to improve efficiency without sacrificing quality. The open-source AV1 codec developed by the Alliance for Open Media—a consortium including Google, Netflix, Microsoft, Amazon and others — is already the preferred decoder for cloud-based applications, and is quickly becoming the standard for video compression of all types.
