In today's ever-evolving security landscape, ensuring optimal security measures is paramount for providing customers with a seamless access control experience. At MES Systems, we've curated a set of invaluable guidelines and recommendations to optimise the use of Net2 access control systems.
Centralised Access Management for Enhanced Efficiency and Scalability:
Utilise Net2's centralised access management feature to streamline operations and minimise errors. With the ability to manage up to 1,000 doors and 50,000 users on a single system, Net2 offers scalability to meet diverse customer needs efficiently.
Stay Updated with Latest Software and Firmware:
Regularly update software and firmware to leverage technological advancements and enhance system security. By running the latest versions, customers gain access to new features and ensure optimal system performance.
Implement Network Access Control Standards for Enhanced Security:
Leverage network access control standards like IEE 802.1X to enforce robust security policies. These standards not only authenticate and authorise access but also control data accessibility based on user roles and device identification.
Utilise Virtual Local Area Networks (VLANs) for Enhanced Network Security:
Employ VLANs to segregate data packets and enhance network security. By isolating critical servers and departmental networks, VLANs add layers of security, preventing unauthorised access to sensitive information.
Strengthen Security with Firewalls and Strong Passwords:
Deploy next-generation firewalls and enforce strong password policies to mitigate cyber threats. Next-gen firewalls offer advanced features like intrusion prevention, application layer inspection, and secure web traffic management.
Restrict System Access to Trusted Devices:
Limit system access to trusted devices to minimise the risk of data exposure. Net2's Secure Mode feature ensures access is restricted to the server machine, enhancing security. For remote access, utilise the Net2Online service for secure client access.
At MES Systems, we're committed to providing cutting-edge security solutions and empowering our customers with the knowledge and tools needed to safeguard their premises effectively. We are proud to be recognised as a Platinum Partner with Paxton Access Control.
