Ensure reliable offline lock operations OSS Standard Offline lets you manage and monitor your offline locks within Security Center and Security Center SaaS. Applying a standard protocol to offline locks ensures interoperability between locks from different vendors, while reducing costly network infrastructure and ensuring reliable offline operations. Working with disjointed offline lock systems? Many organizations rely on offline locks as a proven access control solution, whether they're adding these devices to new sites or inheriting existing infrastructure. However, each offline lock brand uses a different system and credential type. That leads to complex credential management, higher overhead, and a scattered view of operations. A better approach: Offline lock standardization With support for OSS Standard Offline in the Genetec access control system, organizations can manage offline locks through a single system for better interoperability. Locks continue working without power or connectivity, ensuring consistent operations with reduced overhead. The Genetec platform supports OSS Standard Offline for on-prem and cloud deployments, or a mix of both. That means you can deploy your offline lock strategy in the way that best fits your site and operational requirements. Key benefits Monitor, manage, and report on OSS events from a single interface Integrate offline locks from multiple manufacturers under one standard Scale operations with lower network infrastructure costs Deploy on-premises, in the cloud, or with a mix of both deployment options Ensure continued security operations during power or network failures OSS Standard Offline Industry: Critical infrastructure, Banking, Corporate campuses, Healthcare, Manufacturing How we help Improved cardholder and lock management Manage cardholders and offline locks all within the Genetec access control platform. Apply OSS standard credentials to one or several cardholders in a few clicks for seamless security enforcement. Seamless addition of locks Increase the number of locks in the access control system in a matter of clicks. Security Center and Security Center SaaS streamline lock configuration without extensive network expansion. Unified view of operations Monitor all access events within a single interface. Access events from all supported lock entities are consolidated in a single screen, regardless of the lock manufacturer. Enhanced user and operator experience Remove the need for multiple credentials and replace them with a single solution.
