Access Control -

Where are we and where are we

going?

(2)

Loyola Marymount University

 Private Jesuit Institution – 1911

 5500 Undergraduates

 1600 Graduates – 1300 Law School

– 3500 Residents  1200 Faculty/Staff  Card System – 1997  Now – 500 Readers  350 Online Doors  4000 offline locks 2

(3)

What is Access Control?

 Doors

 Turnstiles

 Parking Gates

(4)

What Access Control is not?

 Not Security

But an Element of Security – Monitoring

– Alarms

– Cameras etc.

(5)

Why Electronic Access Control?

 Control, Monitor and Report

 Cost – Vs. Rekeying

 Convenience – Lost Keys

 Manage Time Schedules

 Remote Control (online)

(6)

Access Control at LMU

 Blackboard – 350 Doors

– Two Systems

 Lenel – 40 Doors (and growing?)

 Offline Locks

– 4000 Doors – Res Halls, Offices etc.

(7)

How are schools using Access

Control – Besides Doors?

 Track Usage – Bill for time (Grants) - ASU

 Gas Pump (on/off) – Xavier

 Integration with Energy

– Sweden – Card in/out for lights

 Cabinets/Storage/Safes – Assa Abloy

 Parking Meters

 Student Tracking

 Visitor Management

(8)

Components

 Credentials

– Card, Phone, Key etc.

 Readers/Swipes  Controllers  Locking Hardware  Monitoring  Alarms  Power Supplies  Backup Power

– Fail Locked or Open

 Software

 Servers

 Cameras

(9)

Online ….

 Many Users, Frequent Changes

 Real time

– Lost card cancellation – Lock down

– Alerts, Intrusion alarms

 Remote openings

 Remote changes

(10)

….vs. Offline

 Few Users

 Limited Changes

 Less Expensive

 Like Hotel

 May offer features not in Online

– Office Mode

(11)

Access Technologies

 Currently Common

– MagStripe (plus PIN) – Prox – Biometrics  Newer Technologies – Wireless – RFID/NFC – POE

(12)

Newer Technologies

 Smartcards (Contact)

– Chip and Pin

– Driven by CC’s - Common in Europe (EMV) – Since 90’s – is now any different?

 Contactless

– Prox – NFC

• ASU/Villanova/et. al.

 POE – Power Over Ethernet

(13)

Why Higher (

More Expensive)

Technologies

 Security of the Credential

 Additional Apps

– What data/apps do you need?

• Health, Biometrics, Stored Value, Login Info

 Convenience and reliability of the credential

(14)

Other Factors

 Multiple Identities (Systems)

 Multiple Technologies

 Intelligent updating – Touch Lock - or pass “point” – card/system is updated.

 Multi-Factor authentication

(15)

Wireless – Which standard?

 WiFi

 Zigbee

 Proprietary

 Which works best?

 Which is the most compatible/common?

 How do you plan for a building not yet constructed?

(16)

Contactless



Which one?

– HID – Mifare – Desfire – FeliCa – Et. al.



Work Together – Or Not?

(17)

NFC

 How do you deliver secure mobile Key?

 Over the air? Hardwired? (ASU)

 Over the Air - Who pays for data/delivery?

– Phone provider? Apple, Samsung, Nokia – Service provider? ATT, Sprint, Verizon – Integrator – Bb, CBord

– Access Integrator – Best, Onity, Persona – School??

(18)

Legal Aspects

 California

– Requires all state supported new construction – lockable from the inside

– How many of yours?

– But not by the wrong person?

 Can you change the state of the door

– At the door?, Offline, Online (how easy?) – Do you want to lock valid people out?

 Hard to install interior lockdowns on electronic locks.

(19)

Costs/Benefits

 Cost vs. Functionality

 ROI beyond “Cool”?

(20)

Technical Challenges

 Which Technology?

 Wired or Wireless or Hybrid???

 Weather

 # of Users

 Controlling access to the system

 Reporting

 Quality/Reliability of Hardware

(21)

Other Considerations



Integration with other systems

– HR – SIS

– Housing Systems (StarRez, Adirondack, RMS) – Other Access Systems

(22)

Management

 Policies

– How do you get access?

– Requestor vs. Approver vs. Implementer

 How do you make Assignments

– Manual, Automated

– Distributed Management?

 How (and Who) Manage Multiple

Systems

 Centralized or Distributed (or Hybrid)

(23)

Summary

 Options becoming more viable

 More options coming down the road –

– NFC etc.

But….

 ROI

 Take your best shot and hope the Technology Lasts – Future Proof
