Networking and software compatibility are the keys to success in the modern world.
Software systems must be able to seamlessly communicate with other applications, and
take advantage of the amazing potential of the Internet. Siemens premier access control
and security solution, SiPass, is specifically designed to offer both remote connectivity and
cross-software communication solutions that are integrated, easy to use, and follow
industry standard protocols.

The SiPass Application Programming Interface (API) allows SiPass cardholder and access
control data to be accessed and modified using a third party application, such as a Human
Resources system or a web browser.

Benefits

SiPass’ Operator Partitioning security feature continues to apply to data accessed through
the API, ensuring that only operators with a valid username, password and appropriate
database privileges can modify and add cardholder data, no matter how they log in.

All necessary cardholder data fields are accessible, access privileges can be assigned to
cardholders and visitors, and images of up to 30 different graphical formats can be shared,
like employee signatures and ID photos. This level of sharing means that, combined with
Server-Side scripting technology, you can create your own custom web interfaces to record
cardholder data without installing an additional client.

You can tailor a user interface to match your exact facility requirements, such as linking
your day-to-day card management operations to your corporate intranet. This allows you to
maintain corporate style guidelines to reinforce your core values, while retaining the
benefits of a standard, open solution.

Additionally, by using a familiar interface like a web browser, training costs are significantly
reduced, and hiding access to non-essential data and functionality increases security.
