Business Wire
Viscount Systems (OTCQB:VSYS), a leading provider of IT-based
security software and services, announced today it has received a
U.S. patent for its IP encryption bridge, which is used in the
physical security system architecture of the Freedom Access Control
solution.
U.S Patent #8,836,470 B2 covers the system and method for
interfacing access with control. The patent applies to Viscount’s
portfolio of encryption bridge devices used in a variety of
commercial and government applications across North America. The
Freedom encryption bridges transform card readers into IP
addressable devices. The complete Freedom solution is a fully
compliant FICAM solution under the program’s PACS 13.02 topology,
and therefore has undergone a series of rigid tests to ensure it is
not prone to unauthorized network access.
“The new U.S. patent for our Freedom Encryption Bridge marks an
important milestone for Viscount as it adds IP protection to our
significant advances in revolutionizing how access control systems
are deployed and managed,” said Dennis Raefield, CEO, Viscount
Systems. “The new patent comes at a very exciting time for our
company as we expand our reach into the commercial sector markets
and secure new partnerships that will benefit from our intellectual
property. Innovation is at the core of the Freedom access control
solution so this is just the first of several patents currently in
process."
Freedom represents a paradigm shift in the approach to access
control system architecture by eliminating the need for traditional
access control panels. Freedom leverages existing IT infrastructure
to control access points through its encryption bridges. Users can
be confident that all data is encrypted to eliminate the
opportunity for cyber breaches and multiple synchronized servers
ensure built-in resiliency. Network complexity and deployment costs
are dramatically reduced because of a reduction in infrastructure
investments, allowing customers to meet budget requirements, as
well as experience immediate and long-term
return-on-investment.
