Key Features and Deliverables

Comprehensive System Design

Our security architects develop a tailored access control blueprint that maps credential requirements, door configurations, and access policies to your organization's specific security needs and operational workflows. This design phase considers factors like traffic patterns, security zones, emergency protocols, and integration with existing systems.

Professional Installation Services

Our certified technicians handle all aspects of physical installation, including controller mounting, reader placement, door hardware integration, and network configuration. We follow industry best practices and building codes to ensure reliable operation and code compliance for all installed components.

Cloud-Based Configuration

We configure your Verkada Command platform with appropriate user permissions, access schedules, door groups, and credential management workflows. This central management interface provides unified control over your entire access system from any authorized device.

Credential Implementation & Enrollment

We establish your chosen credential ecosystem—whether traditional key cards, mobile credentials, or multi-factor authentication methods—and develop streamlined enrollment procedures. Our team can conduct initial enrollment sessions and train your staff on ongoing credential management.

Access Policy Development

We help formulate and implement granular access policies based on your organizational structure, security requirements, and compliance needs. These policies define who can access specific areas, when access is permitted, and what authentication methods are required.

Integration with Video Security

We seamlessly integrate Verkada access control with your video surveillance system, enabling automatic video capture of access events, visual verification capabilities, and coordinated investigation tools that combine access logs with corresponding footage.

Benefits of Verkada Access Control

Simplified Security Management

Eliminate the complexity of traditional access control systems with a cloud-based platform that requires no on-premises servers, specialized networking, or proprietary databases. Manage your entire access ecosystem through an intuitive interface accessible from any authorized device.

Real-Time Visibility & Control

Gain immediate insight into access events across all your facilities through a centralized dashboard. View live door status, remotely lock/unlock entries, and receive instant notifications about unauthorized access attempts or security anomalies—all from a single platform.

Seamless Video Integration

Bridge the traditional gap between access control and video surveillance with native integration that automatically pairs access events with corresponding video footage. This eliminates the tedious process of manually correlating timestamps between disparate systems during investigations.

Intelligent Access Insights

Transform raw access data into actionable intelligence through built-in analytics that identify unusual access patterns, optimize space utilization, and enhance security protocols. These insights extend the value of your access control system beyond basic security functions.
‍

Credential Flexibility

Support diverse authentication methods—from traditional key cards and fobs to mobile credentials and multi-factor authentication—without complex infrastructure changes. This flexibility accommodates evolving security requirements and user preferences while maintaining consistent management.

Effortless Scalability

Expand your access control system from a handful of doors to thousands across multiple locations without redesigning your infrastructure. The cloud-based architecture scales seamlessly with your organization, maintaining consistent performance regardless of system size.

Common FAQs for Verkada Access Control

How does Verkada's cloud-based approach differ from traditional access control systems?

Traditional access control systems rely on on-premises servers, proprietary databases, and complex network configurations that create significant IT overhead and maintenance requirements. Verkada's cloud-first architecture eliminates these infrastructure demands while delivering superior functionality through a browser-based interface accessible from any device. The system maintains critical security functions even during internet outages through intelligent edge processing, combining the reliability of on-premises systems with the advantages of cloud management.

What types of credentials does Verkada support?

Verkada supports diverse credential technologies to accommodate various security requirements and user preferences. Options include traditional key cards and fobs (supporting most legacy formats), mobile credentials through the Verkada Pass app, PIN codes, and multi-factor authentication combining multiple methods. The system can also integrate with employee badges through card enrollment stations. This flexibility allows organizations to transition gradually from legacy credentials or implement modern authentication methods based on their specific needs.

How does the system perform during internet outages?

Verkada's intelligent controllers maintain full functionality during internet outages. Access decisions are processed locally based on synchronized access policies, ensuring continuous operation regardless of connectivity status. Controllers store user credentials, access rules, and event logs locally, then automatically synchronize with the cloud once connectivity is restored. This hybrid architecture provides the reliability of traditional systems with the management advantages of cloud-based solutions.

Can Verkada integrate with our existing security systems?

Yes, Verkada Access Control offers various integration capabilities with both Verkada and third-party systems. Native integration with Verkada cameras provides automatic video capture of access events and coordinated investigation tools. The platform also offers API-based integration with identity management systems, HR databases, visitor management platforms, and other operational systems. Verticomm specializes in creating unified security ecosystems that leverage these integration capabilities to enhance overall protection while preserving investments in existing infrastructure.

How scalable is the Verkada access control system?

The system is designed for unlimited scalability, accommodating organizations ranging from small businesses with a few doors to global enterprises with thousands of access points across multiple locations. The cloud-based architecture eliminates traditional scaling constraints related to server capacity or database limitations. New controllers and doors automatically inherit appropriate settings and policies when added to your organization, simplifying expansion as your security needs grow.

What security measures protect the system itself from unauthorized access?

Verkada implements multiple layers of security to protect both the physical and digital components of the access control system. All communication between controllers and the cloud is encrypted using TLS 1.2 or higher, while stored data is encrypted using AES-256 encryption. The Command platform enforces role-based access controls, supports single sign-on integration with leading identity providers, requires multi-factor authentication for sensitive functions, and maintains comprehensive audit logs of all administrative activities. Additionally, controllers feature tamper detection capabilities that trigger alerts if physical interference is detected.
