Biometric access control solutions firm Ideco has added two-factor authentication to its Electronic Visitor Identity Management (EVIM) solution.The addition means that users can use OTP verification to protect the portal against unauthorised access. It has also included an In-Out daily count on its dashboard.EVIM is a mobile data capture and fingerprint scanning device that reinforces security with a digital visitor register, making visitor access management quick and easy. Unlike the traditional paper-based visitor book, the device captures, registers and verifies all data in real time with the National Centre of Certified Identities (NCCI).Ideco managing director Marius Coetzee says these new features will ensure a higher level of security. “As with any high security web site, it is essential that only authorised users have access to the password protected areas of the site.”We have therefore introduced OTP verification, after entering the username and password on the EVIM web portal, an OTP will automatically be sent via SMS to the user's registered mobile number which then needs to be entered to gain access to the web portal,” he says.For terminals that have the 'Direction' function enabled, two additional counters have been introduced to the EVIM portal dashboard. These counters will display the number of people who indicated IN as well as the number of people who indicated OUT on the current day.
