CyberLock ® Brings an Audit<br />
Trail <strong>and</strong> Key Control to<br />
Padlocks<br />
CyberLock® technology brings key<br />
control <strong>and</strong> an audit trail of every opening<br />
to padlocks. Tough, intelligent, <strong>and</strong> built<br />
with stainless steel components, the<br />
unique design of these electronic padlocks<br />
allows them to perform extremely well in<br />
the harshest outdoor environments.<br />
The system consists of the<br />
CyberLock electronic padlock that cannot<br />
be compromised by any conventional<br />
lock-picking methods, <strong>and</strong> the<br />
CyberKey® that cannot be duplicated.<br />
As with all CyberLocks, you can restrict<br />
access for authorized users to selected<br />
locks on specific days, <strong>and</strong> only during<br />
certain times on those days. Each time<br />
the CyberKey opens a padlock, a record<br />
of the event is stored in both the padlock<br />
<strong>and</strong> key, providing a comprehensive<br />
audit trail of activity.<br />
The CyberLock family of electronic<br />
padlocks is constantly growing <strong>and</strong><br />
includes a line of st<strong>and</strong>ard solid-body<br />
brass padlocks with stainless steel components.<br />
Two new additions are the<br />
Hockey Puck <strong>and</strong> Bar Bell. The Hockey<br />
Puck, with a stainless steel body <strong>and</strong><br />
anti-drilling features built into its core, is<br />
highly resistant to violent force. When<br />
in the closed position, its buried shackle<br />
prevents attacks from bolt-cutters. The<br />
Bar Bell padlock has a stainless steel core<br />
<strong>and</strong> locking post. Environmentally<br />
sealed with “O”rings to prevent water
