by Brianna Crandall — March 31, 2017 — ZKAccess, a provider of biometric and radio-frequency identification (RFID) security solutions, recently announced that its ZKBioPack software now allows for the integration of ZKAccess biometric readers with RS2 Technologies’ Access It! access control software, adding an extra layer of protection.
RS2 Technologies is an independently owned access management company, which allows them to stay close to their customers and be more responsive to their customers’ security needs, according to ZKAccess. The company’s engineering, service and administrative staff reportedly boast a long history of experience in the security industry, highlighted by a knowledge base that includes backgrounds ranging from software design to purchasing to security system integration.
Now RS2 Technologies customers can launch the ZKBioPack software application from within their Access It! software interface when ZKAccess IP-based biometric readers are added. Supported ZKAccess biometric models include the F18 indoor fingerprint reader, TF1700 and TF1600 outdoor fingerprint readers, and the MB700 multibiometric fingerprint and face reader.
ZKBioPack software now allows for the integration of ZKAccess biometric readers with RS2 Technologies’ Access It! access control software, adding an extra layer of protection.
ZKAccess biometric readers have the same power, wiring and communication requirements as do any other third-party readers, making ZKAccess hardware easy to install, points out the company. With the introduction of ZKBioPack, enrolling users’ fingerprints is now said to be equally simple.
After launching ZKBioPack from within Access It!, admins simply enroll their employees’ biometric credentials (fingerprints and/or faces) by using a ZKAccess USB fingerprint enrollment device attached to the computer running Access It!. After biometric enrollment is complete, ZKBioPack subsequently synchronizes the biometric templates with all the ZKAccess biometric readers on the network. Fingerprint template synchronization is performed in the background, making the ZKBioPack security system entirely transparent to Access It! users.
Larry Reed, CEO, ZKAccess, noted:
RS2 is well known for both its technology and unparalleled dealer network, with which ZKAccess is eager to partner. RS2 has a nationwide network of highly knowledgeable security experts. By effectively partnering with RS2’s loyal dealer network, ZKAccess will further accelerate the adoption rate of our advanced biometric readers.
David Barnard, director of Dealer Development, RS2 Technologies, commented:
Our dealers depend on RS2 to provide them the very best in security technology to help them safeguard their clients’ business assets and employees. ZKAccess provides us cutting-edge biometric security at a price points our customers can easily afford.
