Seos® was designed to meet the needs of a modern world, focusing on delivering trusted security and user privacy while offering the flexibility to accommodate organizations as they transition to a more connected world.
Relying upon legacy credential technologies is a risk for enterprises and organizations that care about protecting their buildings, assets and their users’ privacy. Seos is able to set minds at ease by leveraging modern cryptography in combination with mutual authentication between credential and reader.
However, ensuring physical security isn’t just about safeguarding facilities. It’s about protecting an interconnected web of physical and digital systems, from vending machines to online portals. This is why Seos was designed to easily extend to applications beyond physical access control, including secure printing, time and attendance, cashless vending, and network logins.
