Access Points

Access Points in Kisi allows admins to assign the Kisi Reader to various access points, covering a wide array of use cases, including:

  • Security Checkpoints: Ensure employee device verification by allowing only company-managed devices into your facility.
  • Card Assignments: Set up a dedicated Access Point specifically for card scanning and assignment, rather than using a reader connected to a door.

With Access Points, you can enhance security and streamline operations across multiple facets of your organization.
