Telaeris Announces Handheld Badge Reader Integration with AMAG Symmetry HSE


XPressEntry adds mobile functionality to Symmetry HSE access control. With the volume of employees, contractors, and visitors going in-and-out of government facilities these days, safety and security professionals will much appreciate the added flexibility our handheld badge readers bring.

Telaeris, a handheld badge verification and emergency mustering solutions provider for physical access control systems (PACS), today announced its XPressEntry software integration with AMAG’s Symmetry Homeland edition access control software. Government facilities using AMAG’s Symmetry HSE access control system can now use compatible XPressEntry handheld badge readers to perform identity authentication, record entries and exits where door readers are not practical, quickly muster employees during an emergency, use employee badges for events or trainings, and much more.

“Securing government facilities is important work and helps keep our country safe,” said Dr. David Carta, chief executive officer, Telaeris. “XPressEntry adds mobile functionality to Symmetry HSE access control. With the volume of employees, contractors, and visitors going in-and-out of government facilities these days, safety and security professionals will much appreciate the added flexibility our handheld badge readers bring.”

“The integration between Symmetry HSE access control and XPressEntry provides government users with a premium handheld, mobile verification solution,” said AMAG Technology, Vice President of Education and Partner Programs, Jason Schimpf.

XPressEntry handheld badge readers maintain updated facility occupancy information and quickly verify personnel and visitor badge information including name, photo ID, and permissions against the Symmetry HSE access control database from anywhere with cellular and Wi-Fi connectivity. It also delivers an emergency evacuation and employee mustering solution to keep continuous track of facility occupancy by monitoring the Symmetry HSE access control system to verify that personnel and visitors are accounted for and safely evacuated during emergency situations.

XPressEntry rugged handhelds are future proofed by reading more badge technologies than any other handheld in the industry including iClass, Prox, Indala, Mifare, and PIV and can simultaneously poll for both HF and LF credentials. XPressEntry has also been penetration tested and certified as secure using appropriate security protocols and encryption.
