The possibility of migrating security systems and maintenance of them to a cloud-based solution varies depending on the system considered. When it comes to access control, now is an ideal time to consider cloud-based access control that rides on the well-architected framework of Amazon Web Services (AWS). Today’s work environment calls for a review of required versus unnecessary in-person contact. By leveraging a cloud-based access control solution, system server software upgrades and maintenance are no longer required to be performed onsite as well as other common access control management activities like card production. This reduces in-person contact with your security team as well as facilities or IT team members at a time when safety and security are working together to create a safer workplace for employees, visitors, and contractors.

With access control migration to the VMAC cloud-based platform, several additional benefits are also realized:

• Cardholder database management – changes to the data base are handled by our team remotely, eliminating the need for employees to stop by HR or security to make changes to their account.
• Detailed customized reports - reports that fit your needs perfectly can be configured and automatically delivered to your inbox, eliminating the time required for your team to t=run the reports.
• Alarm activity reporting – critical reports that need to be delivered in a timely fashion, like alarm activity, are sent for immediate review by your team.
• Door schedule maintenance is simplified - just make a simple notification to the VMAC team to have changes made when entry needs to be permitted to a single user or an entire user group at a different time. Holiday scheduling is managed automatically and will never be overlooked.
• Employee admissions administration – onboarding new employees is expedited by enabling our team to enter the data into the VMAC data base. This increases the efficiency of your team as new employees are hired and prior employees need to be removed from the system. Cards, key fobs, and credentials are printed and programmed for you by offsite, eliminating costly credential inventory and supply levels.
• Automated software upgrades, offsite data backups, and critical cyber security measures - the VMAC secure, offsite data center eliminates costly servers at your facility and minimizes the risk to your data from cyber-criminal activity.
