by Shane Henson — October 30, 2013—Further simplifying and automating complex security operations, Quantum Secure has announced enhancements to its SAFE Software Suite for physical identity and access management.
The SAFE Software Suite offers a host of applications that help automate physical security system functions, such as physical identity management, role-based access, self-service administration, identity/event correlation, and reporting into a single Web-based interface that is easy to manage and use. According to Quantum Secure, enhancements to the suite include a simpler, faster reporting engine that provides security management with insights needed to make better business security decisions, while new out-of-the-box templates automate a wide range of security operations.
Additional updates to the software include newly enhanced contractor and tenant management modules. The SAFE 4.7 enhancements deliver greater flexibility to users, enabling employers to manage identities across multiple contracts with multiple individuals associated to each contract. Users can issue Commercial Identity Verification (CIV) credentials, which function like government Personal Identity Verification (PIV) credentials, to further improve control and security.
In addition to enhancements for its SAFE Software Suite, Quantum Secure has also made available its new SAFE for Mobile Solutions. The new mobile apps enable area access approval to review, approve and/or deny access requests; visitor self-service check-in/check-out or front-desk-administered check-in/check-out using a mobile device; managing infractions and citations to improve field officers’ productivity; and reporting lost badges, requesting replacement/temporary badges, and reporting lost/found items.
