Unisys, a global technology solutions company with a legacy of over 150 years, leverages specialized expertise and advanced technologies to strengthen and transform teams and processes. Operating in more than 55 countries and serving over 850 clients, Unisys prioritizes the critical importance of securing high-risk areas and safeguarding sensitive data that is critical to its operations. For two of its key office locations, Unisys sought a biometric access control solution that enhances workplace security and protects the integrity of its digital assets.
Unisys faced multiple challenges with its existing access control system. First, they were still dependent on a card-based access system, which posed multiple security risks. Additionally, their previous biometric system fell short in accuracy, customization, and integration with the existing security infrastructure. This left them without a cohesive system to secure high-risk areas such as data centers. To address these gaps, they sought a fast and reliable biometric solution for securing the cage within the data center that housed their servers. With a small yet critical team managing this sensitive area, Unisys required a customized solution to enhance security and ensure seamless access for authorized personnel.
Migrating from Cards to Cutting-Edge Fingerprint Access Control
IXM TOUCH 2 and IXM WEB were introduced by C3 Communications at two critical Unisys locations, chosen for their high performance, customization options, and seamless integration capabilities. The transition from card to fingerprint access delivered unparalleled accuracy in user identification and authentication. IXM TOUCH 2 stood out for its sleek design, enabling easy installation on the cage, and its high-speed performance, meeting the need for fast and secure access to servers. What truly sets the Invixium solution apart is its seamless integration with Access It! and compatibility with additional security systems like CCTV and motion sensors. The deployment of two devices at the sensitive data centers ensured the highest level of protection for their critical operations.
