Sentry Interactive’s software uses smartphones as both credential and reader, bypassing legacy hardware to deliver cloud-native, secure mobile access with remote provisioning, modern authentication, and scalable deployment. This evolutionary approach completes the shift to a true mobile access solution.
Tenant and member experience platforms can embed interoperable mobile credential software to let users unlock doors with smartphones via NFC, QR codes, or remote access, eliminating cards and hardware upgrades while enhancing security, convenience, and real-time provisioning within existing systems.
Access control manufacturers can use software-based mobile credentials that don’t rely on reader hardware and work with existing systems to avoid new hardware, reduce plastic and e-waste, lower costs, and support sustainability goals by extending legacy infrastructure with readerless mobile access solutions.
Club experience platforms can embed interoperable readerless mobile access software so members unlock doors with their smartphones via NFC or QR codes, without installing new hardware. This enhances convenience, security, and integration with existing systems through software-only mobile credentials.
Interoperable mobile credential software lets organisations integrate mobile access with workplace systems like HR, identity, and IT platforms, avoiding separate proprietary solutions. This centralizes management, automates permissions, reduces manual work, and scales mobile access without disrupting existing infrastructure.
Sentry Interactive’s interoperable mobile credentialing software lets access control manufacturers enable mobile access on legacy proximity systems without replacing readers. It supports QR, NFC, and remote entry options, modernizing security while reducing hardware costs and installation disruption.
Access control manufacturers benefit from interoperable mobile credentialing software by offering seamless mobile access upgrades that integrate with existing systems, avoid costly hardware replacements, speed deployment, enhance customer experience, and support diverse applications and platforms without disrupting installed infrastructure.
Static QR codes for mobile access and ticketing can be easily shared or copied, leading to unauthorized entry, overcrowding, safety issues, and lost revenue. Using smartphones as readers with secure authentication helps reduce these risks and enhances access security.
As mobile access evolves, robust cybersecurity becomes essential. Without secure encryption and protocols, breaches can expose physical and digital systems. Adhering to standards like NIST and using secure mobile credential software protects data, devices, and infrastructure from growing cyber threats.
