Access Control Credentials

Access control credentials refer to the various means by which individuals are authenticated and granted access to secure areas or systems. These credentials act as validation mechanisms to ensure that only authorized personnel can enter specific locations or utilize certain resources. Access control credentials come in different forms, including:

• RFID Technology: RFID (Radio-Frequency Identification) technology involves using cards or key fobs embedded with RFID chips to grant access.
• Smart Cards: Smart cards are plastic cards embedded with integrated circuits that can store and process data for authentication purposes.
• Mobile Credentials: Mobile credentials leverage smartphones or other mobile devices as a means of authentication for accessing secured areas.
• Biometric Credentials: Biometric credentials use unique physical characteristics like fingerprints, iris patterns, or facial features for identity verification.
