Depending on which configuration is chosen to secure operations, the IA1000 is equipped with a touchscreen LCD, Wifi and PoE capabilities, OSDP and Wiegand protocols, and card reader that supports multiple card formats as well as mobile credentials. The IA1000 meets key certifications, and it can be used in a variety of use cases and comes with the new IA-MS, a centralised web-based application for managing IA1000 devices.

As the access control market steadily grows in market value so does the requirement to have smart and reliable solutions that reduce network vulnerabilities, protect individual privacy and physically safeguard actual infrastructures and buildings.

While most organisations focus on cyber security, access control deserves just as much attention and consideration as the financial impact caused by physical breaches remains significant. The 2023 IBM Cost of a Data Breach Report identified the average cost of a data breach from a physical security collapse is $4.1 million. The same study concluded that almost ten percent of all data breaches come from a physical breach, and it could take up to 198 days to trace the breach back to the physical security violation and 69 additional days to repair the damage caused. Failure to meet these security requirements can also result in additional breaches and increased maintenance costs.

“As technology continues to push the security industry in new and unpredictable ways, Iris ID prides itself with innovating advanced identity authentication solutions for this market," says Mohammed Murad, VP, Iris ID Systems, Inc.  "Traditional methods of providing access control such as access cards, pins and keypads and even legacy biometrics no longer offer the protections that are needed to secure physical locations. Our solutions are one step in the right direction of ensuring highest-level of security that can grow with organisations and does the most to keep bad actors at bay.”
