Challenging Role of Visitor Management System in Certain Premises


Security has always been a challenge in this chaotic world. Evidences are there to support this fact. With an advanced security support although one cannot stop the crime but definitely can reduce the extent of the effect. However it is important to maintain the security and updating the security systems to cope up with the present world's condition.  

Not before few years, when people used to get charmed up seeing visitors at their premises. There was a time when everyone used to get catered in a very well mannered way. Gone are those days, as greediness has overwhelmed the emotional sentiments. 'Trust' has become an extinct factor between individuals. This is of course justifiable as, no one is trustworthy in the present world.
Situations that made the Trust Worse among People:
Few circumstances are there that will help you to understand that it is more efficient to depend on an electronic system rather than keeping gate keepers and security guards.

          Think about the 26/11 Terror Attack in the Railway Station!
A number of public follow the railway route with their family or alone to reach their destination everyday, unaware of the fact that death is peeping nearby to them. The terrorist attacked the railway station, which caused the death of thousands of individuals by the bombardment effect. A lot of search process went on to get the evidence of the terrorist and to catch them. But just think once, if the security procedure at the railway station would have been strong enough then was it possible for those criminals to enter into the railway stations with the restricted weapons! When the situation was so very critical then do you think the manual security guards are really efficient enough? Don’t forget! The railway station is not far from your dwelling place. That means strong security is important which can stand by those criminals.

•           Remember the Terrorist Attack in the Airport!
It is fine if outside the airport you are gun shot by the terrorists / criminals. But what if you are entering into the airport after a thorough security check and still you are not secure. Without sensing any danger you can be killed. Whom will you trust? The security guards or your fate! This suggests that with the strongest security force, you can not get full security. Your life is in danger. To save yourself from being the endangered species you can only change the strategies of your life in concern with the security.
The two different situations are the two scenes happened at two different places and caused a severe haphazard. These suggest that no way manual force can give you security with the current challenging threat. Change you track and focus yourself into the electronic visitor management system. This electronic device is based on face recognition technology. It is an efficient system that can take the present day challenges of security and can fight with them well.
This biometric system captures the facial details of the individual and stores the details electronically in the database of the computer. It can manage a bulk of data and also stores various details related to the individual. Since it is an electronic device therefore it minimizes the risk of fraud, which is more while dealing with manual security guards.
This biometric visitor management system has got a unique feature of banning the employees if some unauthenticated person revisits the premise. It then generates the alarm and signals everyone in the premise about the threat.
This biometric system is not only applicable in certain areas but also it can be implemented in different premises where everyday someone new arrives in the premise. An easy installation process this biometric device follows. With an easy checking process and highly secure technology, it will sooner replace other security systems.

Visitor Management System enhances Safety from Strangers


Do you know that your fellow visitor's visiting at your place can also be dangerous under various circumstances! So, you should be alerted in any case. But the question is 'how'? How can you protect your premises from unwanted visitors? Are you sure that the place where you are living or working is fully protected? Well! The questions are many but the answer is just the one and the technological equipment which can actually solve all the queries is known as Visitor Management System.
Are you surprised?
Are you stunned to know that, electronic equipment can really replace the manual process? Then just don’t stress yourself much as the hidden truth is 'yes it really can'. Focusing on the technical part, visitor management system is based on 'no human touch' technology. That means, for the enrolment the individual does not have to touch the device like other punching machines. But he/she have to stand in front of the device.
It then captures the image of the individual and stores electronically in the database. During the re-visit of the individual, he/she needs to stand in front of the device again and it will capture the image. Then it will perform the matching process between the new patterns and the already stored patterns. If it will get a match then it will grant the permission.
System Based on Face Recognition Technology:
System is thus based on face recognition technology as it provides the authentication by analyzing the individual's face. Thus, it manages the work of the manual security guards and replaces the paper register system with the technology. It acts as a virtual escort to your visitors. But, what if some unwanted visitors want to enter at your place?
A Breath Taking Feature of the Device:
With visitor management system, one can set the different priority level depending upon the visitors. If someone is not expected in the premise due to some reason, then the priority could be set as 'low'.
When that particular person will revisit the premise then visitor management system will generate an alarm. This alarm will alert everyone in the premise about the unwanted happenings. So this is an add-on advantage of this device over the manual process.
Other Benefits:
If the previously mentioned features are not enough to build the trust for this technology, then focus on the numerous advantages:
  • System is a very easy and fastest method of security.
  • It possesses a very low installation charge.
  • A very advanced means of security which does not even demand buddy punching.
  • It has now made everything automatic therefore there is no need of maintaining piles of log books.
  • It is a cost effective technology with a low maintenance cost.
Real Time Applications:
Visitor management system can be used at any entrance for security. It can be used in office, schools, home, museum and many other places. You can also protect you premise from theft attack or from terrorism. As for the authentication you need not to touch the device just have to show your face therefore one will not be able to enter unless and until he/she will be enrolled. It was not possible with the conventional approach.
Also if the priority is properly set then, unauthenticated people will not get the right to enter and it will alarm to notify the unwanted danger.
Thus biometric visitor management system can help you in saving money and time by providing you a better guard system.
