SYNERGIS
The Synergis TM over IP Access Control System (ACS) strengthens your business security and improves your responsiveness to incidents and threats, while leveraging your existing investments in network and equipment of security. With advanced security measures and support for an ever-increasing number of third-party access control devices, the Synergis system can help you protect your people and resources with confidence. >
Safety beyond the gates
Historically, access control systems focused on securing access via a door or to a facility and on managing access rights. From vendors to installers and end users, the safety conversation ended there. The security landscape has evolved and new threats, primarily cybersecurity threats, have emerged. Your access control system should not only secure your doors, but also protect itself against cyber attacks.
Operator-centric security Operator experience should always be a primary concern. Indeed, if a system is too complex, it generates confusion and risks of human error. Unfortunately, traditional ACS vendors primarily focus on developing door control hardware, with user experience taking a back seat. Modern ACS solutions must put the operator's point of view at the forefront, by offering them a unified and dynamic approach to security and access rights management.
Keep an open mind
For too long, security systems have been used strictly to meet physical security needs such as securing doors. By breaking out of this conventional mindset, users should be able to do more with an ACS solution. For example: securing server racks, medicine cabinets and store displays. Going a step further, an ACS system could complement scheduling and attendance systems to ensure human resource compliance, and monitor high traffic areas to improve efficiency.
Choose your preferred access control hardware
By supporting a growing range of access modules and major non-proprietary electronic locks, the Synergis system secures your access control investments. Businesses can choose the hardware that best suits their evolving needs, including controllers from HID Global, Mercury Security, and Axis, and electronic locks from ASSA ABLOY, SALTO, and Allegion. As the Genetec ecosystem continues to grow, you can rest assured that you will always be able to access the very latest ACS technologies.
Neutralize threats instantly
The Synergis system enables your business to respond to physical security threats and cyber threats with confidence. With built-in risk management functions, you can easily and instantly change the behavior of your security system to respond to potential threats. Protect your security system from cyber threats with end-to-end encrypted communications for software and hardware, secure claims-based authentication, and digital certificates. In addition, you can be sure your system is in good working order with the System Status Monitor.
Strengthen security with a holistic view
Present security operators with a forward-looking approach that unifies access control to video, communication management, intrusion, etc. The Synergis system provides efficient operational workflows and a higher level of automation through its unified platform, ensuring that more time can be spent on critical tasks rather than software administration. And for multi-site businesses, the Synergis system allows remote independent sites to be monitored as if they were part of a single virtual system, improving your overall operations and your level of security.

Synergis supported hardware and security measures available
You can choose the access control hardware you need depending on the security measures you plan to put in place.
Get a global view of all your sites and discover optimal methods to secure your business
Security Center's Federation feature makes it easy to centralize monitoring, reporting, and alarm management for multiple sites or organizations, while streamlining off-peak operations.
The Federation is based on a highly scalable architecture that synchronizes cameras, doors, automatic number plate recognition units (ALPR), intrusion detection panels and all associated ALPR events, alarms and alerts between the different Site (s. With automated real-time synchronization, you can now move beyond logging into each individual site or manually synchronizing data between different sites, both of which are particularly time-consuming.
Designed to scale, Federation functionality allows you to connect up to hundreds, if not thousands, of remote access control, video, and ALPR systems.
Merge your computer directory and your physical security systems
Active Directory (AD) integration allows you to merge your logical and physical security systems by centrally managing and synchronizing your Windows user accounts with your Security Center administrator, operator, and cardholder accounts. Automatic synchronization allows you to simplify and streamline the process of creating or deleting users by reducing manual intervention, duplicate entries and operator errors. Active Directory integration with a single unified platform also saves you time by configuring only once the link with your Synergis MC access control systems, Omnicast video surveillance ™ and AutoVu ™ license plate recognition
