When Access Control and Web Services Meet: Creating New Value from Existing Infrastructure

David Crum - President & CEO, SSMI/Southwest System Monitoring, Inc.

Steven Van Till - President and COO, Brivo Systems, LLC

Description: It's now possible to leverage existing access systems by connecting them to the vast information services available on the Internet. Web-hosted access control services can provide a single point of integration that can be shared across thousands of accounts, sites, and control panels. This integration enables access control, device management, and other systems to "listen" and respond to data like weather conditions, public service announcements and much more. Accessing data in this manner allow municipalities, schools and businesses to address or respond to changing conditions. The same techniques can be applied to corporate data sources such as HR systems and automated kiosks. A panel of end-users and integrators will present case studies to demonstrate how these systems are moving into the mainstream, and explain the benefits from enhancing access control with Web-based information services.
