Learn how the Georgia Tech Police Department deployed a web-based physical access control system (PACS) to manage facility access from any web browser, partition role-based access privileges by building, synchronize with campus-wide identity management systems and reduce total cost of ownership.
Managing Campus Facility Access Within A Virtual Server Environment
The Georgia Institute of Technology campus occupies 400 acres in the heart of Atlanta, Georgia, with 900 full-time instructional faculty and more than 20,000 undergraduate and graduate students. The Georgia Tech Police Department (GTPD) is responsible for ensuring campus safety and building security 24/7 and is responsible for managing access to more than 1,800 doors across multiple campuses, buildings and parking garages using the Georgia Tech BuzzCard access control system.
