Tyco Security Products ( Part of Johnson Controls )

Software House, part of the Security Products business unit of Tyco, announces a host of enhancements to its C·CURE 9000 security and event management platform that simplify the management of personnel access. With features such as credential deactivation, custom clearances, and activating events based on activity, C·CURE 9000 v2.20 gives you the ultimate flexibility in solving common personnel access issues.

Credential deactivation enables you to automatically address unused personnel cards. With C·CURE 9000 v2.20, your system can automatically disable personnel cards that have not been used in a specified amount of time, allowing you to better manage employees, contractors, and visitors.

C·CURE 9000 v2.20, allows you to create custom clearances that give individualized access to specific doors, elevators, or groups of both. You can set up a custom clearance for a specific person versus changing a generic clearance for a whole group of people. For example, you can set up a custom clearance for a contractor who is working on a project for a week; once the week is over, his credentials are automatically disabled without affecting the clearances of any other cardholder.

“The new capabilities in C·CURE 9000 provide more intuitive ways to better manage personnel access,” said Steven Lewis, Senior Product Manager of Software House. “These features in C·CURE 9000 represent how we continue to advance the way you provide individualized access to your employees, contractors, and visitors, creating a safer environment for your business.”

C·CURE 9000 v2.20 allows you to automatically activate an event associated with a specific person, and specific doors. For example, when the president of the company arrives each morning the system can automatically turn on the lights, HVAC, and send a report directly to his/her computer.
