Access Control System

Avigilon Access Control Manager (ACM)™
Access Control Manager (ACM) is an IT-friendly Physical Access Control System (PACS) from Avigilon for enterprise-class installations. It’s a complete system that is designed to keep your focus on securing your people, property and assets, and maximizing your time by helping you respond immediately to alerts wherever you are. ACM is a browser-based solution that can integrate with existing IT/HR systems, minimizing the need for duplicate data entry. ACM comes with a full set of standard features that not only help to maximize your time, but will reliably safeguard your information.

All-in-One Network Appliance

Avigilon’s integrated access control network appliances consist of a pre-configured, solid-state server that provides easy, out-of-the-box setup and installation within minutes, eliminating the headaches and hassles of maintaining a stand-alone database server or installing software on multiple end-user workstations.

100% Browser-based Web Application
Unlike legacy, software-based access control systems,ACM is accessible anytime, anywhere from any standard web browser. Manage employee and visitor facility access privileges quickly and easily from any location without being tied to a dedicated client workstation or paying for software licenses per user.

Secure, Linux® Operating System
All ACM appliances ship pre-installed with a secure, opensource,Linux® operating system. This significantly reduces the risk of virus attacks, frees administrators from installing Windows® security patches and ongoing anti-virus updates and eliminates the cost of operating system licenses and upgrade fees.

Physical and Logical Security Convergence

ACM allows organizations to seamlessly integrate IT and physical security systems, such as Identity and Access Governance (IAG), Security Information and Event Management (SIEM), and HR systems to correlate physical and logical security event information, monitor alarms and rapidly respond to unauthorized activities.

Integrated Access Control
Avigilon delivers the industry’s first and only physical access control system (PACS) that seamlessly integrates identity management and video surveillance across IT and logical security systems, enabling organizations to go beyond simply managing doors to securing facilities, people and assets at multiple offices, buildings and locations.

Identity Management

Avigilon™ ACM integrates with an organization’s existing
Identity Management system or HR employee database, without requiring duplicate data entry or ongoing maintenance. Identities, roles and policies are synchronized across all ACM network appliances and door controllers in real-time so security settings are always updated and never outdated.

Video Integration
Enhanced integration of ACM and ACC, combining award winning HD surveillance and access control enables ACM alarms to be managed and monitored through Avigilon Control Center.

Event Correlation and Alarm Monitoring

With ACM’s integrated access control, an unauthorized door held or forced open can automatically alert computers in an adjacent room to suspend network access and also send a command to an IP camera to immediately stream video to the security team for further investigation.

Openness / support
Access Control Manager supports open field hardware from Mercury Security and HID, allowing organizations to leverage investments in non-proprietary field hardware, with retrofit programs available for industry-standard door hardware and card readers.
