Modernize Your Electronic Locking System with the Help of Locksmith Ledger
In a recent webinar hosted by Paul Ragusa of Locksmith Ledger, several experts discussed the importance of upgrading access control systems in response to the growing threat of cellular signal jammers.
Participants in the webinar included: - Wayne Winton, Owner of Tri-County Locksmith Services - Roland Smith, Industry Solutions Leader for Hospitality at Salto - Daniel Hardwick, Vice President of AKL Solutions - Peter Lowenstein, VP Sales of NAPCO Access
The webinar focused on electronic access control systems, with a particular emphasis on the new product introduced by DMP, JamAlert. JamAlert is a detection device designed to combat the increasing usage of cellular signal jammers, which pose a significant threat to security systems.
The Need for JamAlert
Cellular signal jammers are becoming increasingly common, leaving security systems vulnerable. The introduction of JamAlert is a response to this growing issue, providing a solution to the threat posed by cellular signal jammers.
Upgrading to Electronic Access Control Systems
The webinar also discussed the benefits of upgrading access control systems. Moving beyond outdated hardware-based legacy logic towards more intelligent, agile, and integrated systems is essential for today’s dynamic and hybrid work environments.
Electronic access control systems offer value beyond security. They can help create safer workplaces, improve operational agility, provide seamless user experiences, and enable intelligent decision-making driven by integrated identity and access data.
Credential Modernization
Credential modernization is a critical component of the upgrade. Legacy credentials create security vulnerabilities, and modern encrypted authentication is essential for reducing risk, ensuring compliance, and increasing organizational resilience against expanding cyber threats.
Leadership Commitment
Leadership commitment is crucial in championing this transformation. Aligning security upgrades with broader business goals, removing bureaucratic constraints, and signaling that security is a core business priority rather than just an IT issue are all important aspects of successful upgrades.
Practical Benefits
Practical benefits of upgrades include reduced energy consumption and maintenance costs through smarter automation of doors. This not only enhances sustainability and operational efficiency but also contributes to the overall success of the upgrade.
The experts agreed that upgrading access control is not just a technical necessity but a strategic opportunity to enhance security, operational value, and user experience comprehensively.
