Different Editions of Microsoft SQL | Did you Know?

MSSQL, short for Microsoft SQL Server, is a widely-used relational database management system (RDBMS) developed by Microsoft. It provides a platform for storing, managing, and retrieving data in a structured manner. MSSQL is commonly used in enterprise environments for various applications, including web development, business intelligence, and data analysis. Its robustness, ease of use, and integration with other Microsoft products make it a popular choice among developers and database administrators. SQL Server is available in a range of editions, each catering to specific needs and requirements. This chapter provides an overview of the different editions along with their respective features. Enterprise Edition: Positioned as the top-tier offering, the Enterprise Edition encompasses a comprehensive set of features and functionalities. Standard Edition: The Standard Edition, while slightly less feature-rich than the Enterprise Edition, is ideal for scenarios where advanced feat...

How a Door Access Control System Works?

We know what the Access control system is. It's the combination of access control readers, locks, exit buttons, and more installed on a door. Authorized users with assigned credentials can access these doors by presenting their credentials. Click to know What's Access control? But do you know how it actually works ? What are the main key points behind it? Typically door access control systems operate based on three fundamental sets:  Who When Where Although these words may seem straightforward, they carry profound significance in the context of Door Access Control. The entire range of access control features revolves around these key elements, which play a crucial role in ensuring effective security measures. The first set, " Who " refers to the identification and authentication of individuals seeking access to a particular area. It involves verifying the credentials of users , such as access control cards, key fobs, or biometric data such as F...

What is IR & Visual face Recognition?

In the Facial Recognition industry, there are commonly 2 types of Facial recognition available one is called IR  and Visual Facial recognition.  IR facial recognition is a type of facial recognition technology that uses infrared light to capture images of a person's face and identify them. This technology uses a special camera that emits infrared light to illuminate the face and capture an image. The infrared light is not visible to the human eye but can be captured by the camera, allowing it to capture clear images of the face even in low-light or no-light conditions. IR facial recognition is an advanced biometric technology that offers high accuracy and security for identification and authentication purposes. It is commonly used in various applications such as access control, security systems, border control, and law enforcement. Unlike traditional facial recognition systems, IR facial recognition is not affected by lighting conditions or changes in appearance, such as weari...

What is FAR and FRR in Biometrics devices?

The security of a biometric device can be measured using various metrics that evaluate the accuracy and effectiveness of the device in detecting and verifying an individual's identity. The most common terms are FAR & FRR. FAR stands for "False Acceptance Rate" in biometrics. It measures the likelihood that an unauthorized person will be mistakenly recognized as an authorized user by a biometric system. In other words, FAR is the rate at which the biometric system incorrectly accepts an impostor as a genuine user. This can happen due to various reasons such as system error, sensor malfunction, or intentional fraud. FAR is usually expressed as a percentage, an essential metric for evaluating the effectiveness and security of a biometric system. The lower the FAR, the more secure the system is considered to be.  FRR stands for "False Rejection Rate" in biometrics. It measures the likelihood that a genuine user will be wrongly rejected by a biometri...

What is Biometrics in Acecss control?

Biometrics refers to the use of unique physical or behavioral characteristics of individuals to identify and authenticate them. Biometric systems use various techniques such as fingerprint scanning, iris recognition, face recognition, voice recognition, and behavioral biometrics like gait recognition or typing patterns to verify the identity of an individual. The goal of biometrics is to provide a secure and reliable way to identify individuals and grant access to protected systems or facilities. Biometric systems are used in various applications such as border control, law enforcement, banking and finance, healthcare, and physical access control it  work by capturing and storing biometric data from an individual, such as a fingerprint or facial image, and comparing it to a database of pre-enrolled biometric data to identify the individual. The system then generates a match score or probability that the individual is who they claim to be. Biometric...

What is an Anti-passback?

Anti-passback is a security feature in access control systems that prevents users from gaining access to a secured area twice with a single authorization. In an access control system with anti-passback enabled, a user's access credential is only valid for one entry to a specific area. When the user enters that area, the system records the time and location of the entry, and the credential is "checked out" by the system. The user must then exit the area using an authorized exit point, which the system also records. Once the user has exited, the credential is "checked in" by the system and is once again available for use. If the user attempts to gain access to the area again without first exiting through an authorized exit point, the system will deny the access request, triggering an alarm or alert to notify security personnel of the unauthorized attempt. The anti-passback feature helps to prevent unauthorized access and ensures that individuals cannot ente...

What's Access Control?

  What's Access & Access Control -  Access control refers to the practice of restricting access to resources, systems, or information to authorized users or processes. It is a security measure used to ensure that only authorized individuals or entities are able to access specific resources while preventing unauthorized access or malicious activities. Normally Access means entering or reaching a place, but when we say Access Control that means it's still available to Access, but it's being controlled for some reason and it's not accessible for everyone only the authorized person can now. Ultimately if a person is allowed he/she will gain access else it will be denied. Just like at our homes we use a Physical key and Lock to control access, so yes Physical keys and Locks are also a part of access control. So yes we can say, access control is the protocol that restricts/allows selected persons to  protect a place/premises/area. Where  & Wh...
