Access
Developed to meet the unique demands of a high security environment, where accurate identity is paramount. Tephra’s Access solution confirms the identity and controls the movement of all individuals, as they enter and exit a building. It reinforces security by reliably verifying and authenticating people to ensure authorised access.
It provides a fast, accurate and secure way of controlling access to a facility and other critical areas within a building. For maximum security two-tier authorisation can be applied, integrating RFID and / or PIN.
A proven solution, Tephra Access has been successfully installed in some of the highest security establishments in Europe to meet the most complex security needs.

Background
Prisons are characterised by frequent changes in population. The need to provide different access privileges to groups including staff and temporary visitors e.g. contractors, legal and government officials, makes identifying people entering and leaving a facility challenging.
Operational processes including checking ID, authorising movements and accounting for staff and visitors in the case of emergencies has resulted in duplication of work and a greater risk of human error.
Tephra Access offers a reliable, flexible and cost effective way of controlling who has access to facilities and when that access is allowed.
