Dealer Corner Market Spotlight - General Aviation Airports ACS WebService is a great fit for airports. Wireless control panels mean no trenching is needed, and the centralized hosted application lets airport managers focus on running the airport, not IT systems.
Read more about how well Brivo can work for airports. Success Story Santa Monica Airport, one of the busiest single-runway airports in the nation, covers 227 acres which are surrounded by fencing and eight access gates. Access codes were previously used for entry, but they are too easy to share, and the system couldn't report on when or by whom the gates were accessed. Ron Lander, president of Ultrasafe Security in Norco, California, proposed Brivo to meet two of the larger challenges: remote gates without network infrastructure and minimal IT resources to support on-site software and computer equipment. Brivo fit the bill. No
on-site software or servers, or even a dedicated PC, are needed.
Wireless control panels saved the airport over $100,000 in trenching
and installation costs. All gates and doors can be managed from any
Web browser, and email notifications of events keeps airport
security informed. Today's security realities demand such oversight
and flexibility, and Brivo delivers. | ||

New Account Password Processes Increase Security In order to increase information security, Brivo has implemented the first phase of a new process for account password creation. The change occurs when creating an account for the first time. As before, the account creator will be prompted to enter an account name and contact information for the Master Administrator, which includes an email address. For increased information security, the system will now automatically generate a temporary password for the Master Administrator and send it to the email address that was entered. This is a significant change. The Master Administrator must access the new account and change the password within 2 days, or the password will expire. If this happens, contact Brivo Technical Support to have a new temporary password sent; call (866) 274-8648, Option 3. Phase 2 of the process change will provide the ability to establish an "installation account." This way, the installer can complete the account setup prior to the Master Administrator receiving any login information. When installation is complete, the installer sends the login information to the Master Administrator. In addition, the ability to set an expiration date on the installation account ensures that the customer retains exclusive access to their Brivo account. Phase 2 is expected to be complete within a month. Brivo Employee Spotlight Christophe Santini Our dealers don't often get the chance

Lockdown overrides all schedules, holidays, and timers, which return to normal settings when Lockdown is de-activated. Being able to lock down a facility in the event of an emergency is a feature essential to many customers, including:
