Physical Access Built for the Enterprise
By integrating with over 30+ leading Physical Access Control Systems, we handle the security of physical buildings; however, those access events do not become obsolete after approval or denial. Most importantly, these access attempts provide a key risk signal that feeds into our PREDICT engine, giving organizations a tangible contributor to employee identity verification.
Key Differentiators
Identity-Centric Access: Every access event is tied to a verified identity and trusted device, ensuring access is consistent across all resources. This eliminates ambiguity and enforces true identity-driven security to the physical workplace.
Automated Badge Provisioning: TOTAL Presence connects identity management directly with access rights, ensuring that the provisioning and deprovisioning of badges happens in real time. When roles or permissions change for a user, access automatically adjusts across both digital and physical systems.
Risk Signal Analysis: Physical activity is treated as a high-value risk signal. TOTAL Presence correlates patterns like repeated rejects, out-of-sequence access, or after-hours entries with digital anomalies, enabling earlier threat prediction and faster incident response.
Why TOTAL Presence is Different
Feature | TOTAL Presence | Typical Alternatives |
|---|---|---|
Identity-Centric Access | Every access event is tied to a verified identity and trusted device, ensuring authentication is continuous across all environments. | Events tied only to badge numbers, leaving uncertainty about the individual. |
Automated Badge Provisioning | TOTAL Presence connects identity management directly with access rights, ensuring provisioning and de-provisioning happen in real time. | Manual updates lag behind, leaving gaps or excess access. |
Risk Signal Analysis | Physical activity is treated as a high-value risk signal and correlated with digital anomalies (e.g., repeated rejects, after-hours entries). | Basic pass/fail tracking with no broader risk context. |
The TOTAL View
TOTAL Presence is integral to TOTAL’s Predict and Enforce modules, grounding security in real-world presence by showing exactly who is attempting to enter which physical spaces or resources. These signals provide the context needed to anticipate risks and actively prevent unauthorized access, ensuring policies are not just defined but enforced. The result: stronger trust, sharper detection, and security that extends seamlessly from the digital world into the physical enterprise.
