A balance of safety and convenience
The advantages of smart access control are obvious, such as increasing convenience and realizing the diversification of verification methods: in real life, face recognition, mobile phone replacement of access control cards, etc. have brought great convenience to users; at the same time, the new development of intelligent access control has also Let the security have a new technical guarantee. Taking face recognition as an example, it can effectively identify the identity and prevent the occurrence of card punching and card theft. But on the other hand, compared with traditional access control, there are also new security risks in the upgrade of human-computer interaction experience, such as face recognition data being cracked, face similarity and false release, etc.
Therefore, in the deployment of Network Access Control system solutions, manufacturers must grasp the balance between convenience and security. Once the balance is out of balance, there will be security risks.
Take the NFC access control card as an example. In practical applications, NFC access control cards are divided into several types. If the user's awareness of safety precautions is insufficient and the user only pursues convenience, it is easy to use simple cards that can be copied by mobile phones in areas with relatively low security precautions, such as communities and underground garages. create a safety hazard. In fact, in these scenarios, virtual cards can be used, and the access control system issues virtual card numbers through exclusive channels. The operation from the cloud to the local has a very complete security mechanism, which will not be easily copied and can increase the safety factor. If the mobile phone is lost, the virtual card can also be frozen quickly, and the cloud authorization certificate is constantly refreshed, so that the validity of the virtual card number can be grasped in real time.
At present, many domestic door access control solutions consider convenience, and the awareness of security precautions needs to be strengthened. In practical applications, scenarios with lower security levels in ordinary commercial buildings can be more convenient for users; however, key industries, such as airports, electronic manufacturing plants, nuclear power plants and other application places, need to use state-secret CPU cards, Mifare Access control solutions with higher security standards and encryption technology such as the DESFire EV1 card.
S4A has always regarded the realization of product safety as the highest priority and has a very complete safety process. In the product development stage, S4A has already regarded data security as an important consideration, and needs to go through the security review process; after the development is completed, it needs to pass a strict penetration test, inviting data security companies to simulate hackers from the network level, software level, and operating system level. , or even launch attacks at the physical level, and can only be officially released after ensuring that the product can successfully resist various attacks such as fake faces, fake fingerprints, and copying NFC cards. In addition, S4A continuously updates firmware and software versions to prevent data corruption. At the same time, S4A also provides software maintenance services for customers. During the validity period of the service, they can always obtain the latest version of the software for free.
