Install Advanced Access Control Systems Using Biometrics and Do Away With Insecure Conventional Systems
What is an advanced access control system and where does one draw the line between what is outdated and outmoded and what should realistically take its place? In 2011, it is probably fair to say that the traditional key card-, keypad- and PIN-based access control systems are old hat and not just because they have fallen out of fashion, but because they pose security risks and drawbacks. The bottom line is that they are simply not secure enough anymore, especially in view of our high crime rates.
Security Drawbacks of Conventional Access Control Systems
Advanced access control systems endeavour to remove these drawbacks of conventional systems:
- Employees have to be diligent in remembering a password or PIN or carry their key cards with them.
- These credentials are easy to misplace or lose, or to steal.
- Identification is not 100% positive, because someone else can use your credentials.
- Company resources are wasted to continuously reset passwords and PINs or replace key cards.
Advanced Access Control via Biometrics
Biometrics have changed the face of access control by doing away with all the disadvantages, but they had tended to be very expensive, and some types still are. Especially small businesses are reluctant to install systems that scan or recognise hand geometries, irises, retinas and voices because of cost concerns, but there is one solution that has become very popular for offering the best of both worlds: fingerprint scanners. Fingerprint scanners are the most affordable type of biometric access control system, yet it shares all the other biometric systems’ advantages:
- Employees do not have to remember PINs or passwords or carry key cards or tags with them.
- Credentials are impossible to forge or steal.
- Identification is 100% positive.
Secure your business properly by doing away with your outdated access control systems, in favour of an advanced access control system using biometrics.

Delegate Systems Designed For The Corporate World
Delegate systems are generally used for corporate meeting and conference purposes. At Questek Advanced Technologies we stock and install Auditel and Televic delegate systems. These brands present the market with a wide range of reliable, durable and somewhat impressive systems at cost-effective rates.
Typical delegate systems will consist of a large display screen, projector and delegate console services for translating and voting. Delegate systems are quick and easy to set up – for the professionals. Most systems available offer excellent sound feedback suppression, central override and sound level control. We offer delegate and chairman versions, both of which can be controlled with Microsoft Windows controller software which we will provide. These systems are valued by most companies for their ability to host a complete conference, virtually.
Delegates making use of a system such as this will find great convenience in being in control of their own microphones, which they can turn and off as needed. Of course the option to have microphones controlled centrally is made possible, which can provide added control of the overall conference.
