Tangible ROI.At the heart of Vykon Security is the Security Appliance, an IP-basedcontroller capable of storing thousands of credentials and controllingmultiple doors. The Security Appliance serves the complete VykonSecurity software suite to a standard web browser, eliminating theneed for an on-site PC or the purchase and installation of proprietarysoftware. No longer is the security staff chained to a particular PCfor system monitoring and management. Managing thick clientsoftware upgrades is a thing of the past, and because the Niagara AXFramework uses standard IT technologies (i.e., browser, XML, SNMP,LDAP, JMS, etc.), it's easy to manage the convergence of physicaland logical security.
