Access control is a word that is quite known to almost every second person. But before we understand what access control is and why is it important for us, we should know about physical security. Physical security is a word that means safeguarding you and your important data from any kind of loss or damage. It is the protection of a person, data, software or hardware from any kind of threat that could cause loss or damage to any agency, enterprise or company.
Now, access control is a technique of selective restriction of a place or resource that regulates who can have access to the restricted place or resource. Access control is a significant concept in the context of physical security. Authorization is necessary to access any resource with the help of an access control solution.

• The requirement of on-site staff for maintenance
On the other hand, the benefits of cloud access control over conventional access control solution are:
Operational flexibility: With IDCUBE’s iNest solution users can invite & manage visitors, restrict access and monitor them from anywhere at any time using their smartphone. Geotagging is an advanced feature of iNest that allows users/staff to submit an on-duty request & thus help in tracking employees during working hours.
Cost-effectiveness: The INEST significantly reduces the cost of implementation, hardware requirements, and structural complexity. The services are charged based on usage and Pay-as-you-go (PAYG) payment method.
No complex IT infrastructure: The iNest solution shifts the operational workload to the more efficient cloud infrastructure, eliminating the need for on-site servers.
Data security & availability: Data stored in the cloud is more secure and is available on demand to the end user.
Scalability: The iNest solution is best suited for rapidly growing and dynamic businesses such as multinational, multi-tenant and multi-location organizations. As the functionality scope expands in terms of more facilities, access points, and users, more computational resources are allocated to the cloud services to accommodate larger workloads without disruption or complete transformation of existing infrastructure.
