Versatile Freedom access control from Viscount

Burnaby, BC (USA)

Freedom Encryption Bridge from Viscount is said to be the first and only access control system that allows entry devices (IC cards, RFID readers, biometrics etc.) to be connected to standard building IT networks without requiring expensive control panels that are programmed from a PC.
Freedom eliminates up to 80% of the cost of traditional systems that require the installation of control panels. And, it utilises existing logical IT security software (LDAP) to replace both the control panel component and the software component of traditional systems. Freedom drastically reduces system costs while providing a much more secure software solution.

Viscount Systems has received orders to secure additional facilities owned by the British Columbia Government and the systems being installed include both Freedom access control and MESH touch screen intercom panels. This is part of an ongoing rollout at over a hundred facilities that includes both new Freedom installations and upgrades of original MESH access control to Freedom.

"We are pleased to see existing clients continue their rollouts of Viscount technology," noted Stephen Pineau, CEO of Viscount. "Much of our Freedom revenue for 2012 related to initial and pilot systems that are now being expanded. As we continue to accumulate new clients we anticipate strong growth for the balance of 2013."
