  • The user’s smartphone connects to the Sentry cloud
  • Sentry Interactive’s cloud service communicates via SSL/SSH to the building’s door access controller
  • The Sentry Interactive cloud is secured through AWS
  • The building’s access controller acknowledges the access request from the Doordeck cloud
