LochIsle enables online access control management

Tuesday, May 6, 2008

LochIsle Inc., an Ottawa-based access control company, has launched an access control system that enables businesses to manage and monitor system through a Web interface. The iLoch system is available for licensing by access-control system manufacturers.

The iLoch system grants or denies people access based on the access rights set by the lock owner using an online interface. Instead of traditional keys, the iLoch is opened with an iButton or other credential. If an iButton is lost, the iButton owner can easily associate permissions to a new iButton using the online interface, rendering the lost keys inactive. The projected cost for an iLoch system is less than half that of competitive solutions, the company states. [end]
