Smart Access Rule Automation for Genetec Security Center


    In environments where access management is critical and large-scale, manually configuring access rules quickly becomes a bottleneck. To address this need, Addonxpert has developed a custom plugin for Genetec Security Center, enabling the full automation of access rule creation based on cardholders' custom fields. This plugin integrates seamlessly into the Genetec platform and provides intelligent, fast, and consistent management of access rights based on each user's specific information.

    Fully automated access rule creation: Automatically generate cardholder groups, schedules, and access rules without manual intervention.

    Operational time savings: Significantly reduce the time spent configuring access, especially in high-volume environments.

    Standardized access rights: Apply consistent rules based on cardholders’ custom fields (site, department, role, etc.).

    Reduced human error: Avoid oversights or misconfigurations by fully automating the process.

    Dynamic adaptation to changes: When a field is updated (e.g., department change), groups and rules are automatically adjusted.

    Enhanced security: Ensure that each cardholder has exactly the access they need — no more, no less.

    Intuitive Config Tool interface: Easily configure your business rules through an interface integrated within Genetec Security Center.

    Proven scalability: Efficiently manage thousands of cardholders and groups without performance loss.

    The ACCESS RULE MANAGEMENT plugin for Security Center enables organizations to automate and secure their access management reliably, quickly, and at scale. By leveraging custom fields, it turns your access strategy into a smart, dynamic process.
