With Bluetooth (BLE) access control technology, any smartphone with the Verkada Pass app can be used as a touchless digital keycard, to gain hands-free entry and touchless access control. This not only streamlines the end-user experience, but also eliminates the security risk posed by carrying and losing physical badges. Organization admins can also commission and decommission users immediately, by integrating with tools, such as Azure AD.
Tailgate detection is now available on Command’s web and app platforms. From a single pane of glass, organizations can detect and filter for tailgating events in real-time across all sites. On top of that, this new capability does not require specialized (or even new) hardware.
With integrated video security and access control, Verkada leverages data from door events and edge-based video analytics to produce an accurate people count. If multiple people enter a doorway through one access grant, the system raises an alert and flags it as a tailgating incident.
Other Verkada Pass application updates include:
Multi-Account Login: With the ability to switch between accounts from their profile, users can now log into multiple accounts at once. Combined with Magic Links, this makes it simpler and easier to manage doors across multiple organisations.
