Kisi – Enhanced access control and lockdown notification

IntegrationsAccess Control

Solution

Kisi is a cloud-based access control solution that empowers organizations to manage their facilities smarter, safer, and more efficiently. Integrating Kisi with InformaCast allows organizations to initiate (and cancel) a building-wide lockdown from the InformaCast interface. Organizations can also lock and unlock specific doors at a location when sending an InformaCast scenario.

Benefits

This integration expands InformaCast’s lockdown capabilities. From a single interface, organizations can activate lockdowns to secure a building, while simultaneously sending alerts to all connected devices to alert people that a lockdown is taking place. This means lockdowns can happen more quickly, because system admins only need to use one tool rather than jumping between multiple solutions, wasting valuable time. When connected, InformaCast can also be used to lift a lockdown, reopening Kisi-connected access points and delivering “All Clear” messages so normal operations can resume.

Use Cases

Kisi and Singlewire Software serve schools, businesses, hospitals, and other organizations looking to strengthen their safety and communication strategies. Kisi access control solutions can be used in conjunction with InformaCast to:

  • Lockdowns buildings during an emergency
  • Send notifications that a lockdown has been initiated
  • Lift a lockdown once an incident has been resolved
