Advancis: Advanced Identity Manager AIM as Software Platform for Consolidation of Access Control and IT Systems – GSA25 Finalist
Several independent access control systems from different manufacturers can be "synchronised" easily, securely and across locations using AIM. AIM acts as a superordinate "information broker" between the individual systems and thus enables cross-system data exchange.
With AIM, each employee ideally receives only one access control card (badge) and can use this to pass through all areas that have been activated for him, regardless of which access control system or location he or she has to verify himself against. AIM enables the continued use of existing access solutions without having to give up the advantages of standardised processes and central data maintenance.
The use of AIM and the associated harmonisation significantly reduces the management effort for initial administration and ongoing maintenance of user profiles and group rights in companies with a heterogeneous system landscape. The logical and physical identity of an employee, together with the relevant technical parameters of an access control card (badge), is synchronised via AIM across all connected systems and ensured anytime.
