ievo, a UK-based provider of biometric fingerprint solutions for the access control market, announced that it has joined the Genetec technology partnership programme.The programme is designed to provide integrated fingerprint authentication systems for enhanced access control capabilities for users of the Genete Security Center, the company's unified, open-architecture platform that combines video management systems (VMS) with access control infrastructures, VoIP communications and analytics.The firm noted that ievo engineers and programmers have been working closely with Genetec to directly integrate ievo registration/user management software with the Genetec Security Center. This allows for simple access using only one set of registered (Genetec) credentials, rather than having to manage multiple credentials on one system. Security Center communicates with ievo systems via the ievo central SQL distribution software, ensuring that the correct access and permissions for user profiles are distributed to access hardware.”We are excited to be joining the Genetec technology partnership program,” said Shaun Oakes, Managing Director for ievo, “not only are we integrating two leading solutions for enhanced access control infrastructures, but we are also expanding our portfolio of working partnerships which will allow us to provide our system installers and end-users a wider selection of beneficial access control solutions.””Our technology integration relationship with ievo for access control efficiencies comes at an exciting time for Genetec, and will provide greater flexibility and choice for our end-users, adding another competitive edge for our unified security platform in what is an evolving marketplace,” said Francois Brouillet, Commercial Manager – Access Control, Genetec.
