ASIS 2013 NEWS
At its Enterprise User Interoperability Showcase on Sep. 23, the Physical Security Interoperability Alliance (PSIA) announced its new Physical-Logical Access Interoperability Working Group. This group will develop a specification to unify logical and physical identities so that security industry manufacturers, integrators and end users can develop cost-effective, easily administered solutions that span the physical and logical security domains.
“Many security end users want to synchronize the identities used by their logical and physical security access control systems but cannot justify the costs of proprietary solutions that require custom programming and disruptive new work flows,” said Mohammad Soleimani, executive vice president and chief technology officer, Kastle Systems, and interim chair of the new PSIA group.
