Modern access control systems for a smart campus
Making everyday university life safe and convenient with RFID card and smartphone app
A university campus is a complex environment: students, faculty, and staff need easy access to various rooms, services, systems, and devices on campus to work productively. At the same time, unauthorized individuals must not be allowed entry or access. After all, people, sensitive data, and university facilities and assets must be reliably protected.
Many colleges and universities already use RFID cards to manage access to academic facilities, administrative offices and student dormitories. In the course of digitization, however, forward-looking universities need solutions that can integrate all available technologies without any problems. Today, modern systems for user authentication and access control combine RFID cards and smartphone applications that use Bluetooth® Low Energy (BLE) or Near-Field Communication (NFC).
This white paper identifies the many possible applications for user authentication and access control with RFID cards and smartphones in everyday university life. It shows which advantages corresponding systems offer in terms of user-friendliness, security and administrative effort. In addition, you will learn which criteria must be observed for the successful implementation of a future-proof solution.
