Scalable & Secure: The Benefits of Cloud-Based Access Control
Answering Common Concerns About Cloud-Based Services
Access control is designed as the first line of defense, a security measure that determines who enters your building and restricted areas and when. When cloud-based, you can access the system from anywhere, adding or deleting users from any connected device with one touch.
These scalable solutions may start with one door and eventually reach multiple sites as your business expands. To enter, staff can use their smartphone, smart watch, fob, or keycard. Unlike using keys that require rekeying the entire building, should someone lose or walk away with one, lost fobs and keycards can be deactivated immediately, and a new one issued.
Here, we’ll explore the benefits of cloud-based access control and why businesses throughout Fort Collins, CO, are embracing these systems.

Enterprise-Grade Security
In today’s environment, every business is beefing up security, whether physical or online. Cloud-based systems are extremely secure. A reputable cloud service provider updates and backups its system regularly, uses AI and 24/7 monitoring to detect suspicious threats, and uses encrypted digital credentials. The result is greater protection from cyberattacks.
At LockSafe Systems, we make it a point to partner only with the industry leaders in the field, those who are trusted and take security seriously. One of those partners is Avigilon, a Canada and U.S.-based manufacturer of security solutions. Used in industries that include healthcare, universities, and law enforcement, you can be confident they’ve been vetted and found to possess the highest security protocols.
Mobile Security Event Notifications
Cloud access lets you receive mobile alerts should someone attempt entry or if a vendor or visitor shows up unexpectedly. From your mobile device, you can see who is trying to enter, lock down the entire building if warranted, or allow access.
Unified Security
When access control systems integrate with high-resolution cameras and video management, you experience a unified security system. On a single platform, you can view live security camera feeds and access control events that include a picture of the person, name, date, and time. You’ll immediately know if someone is attempting entry into a restricted area without the proper credentials.
