Sign In App Links Paxton Net2 to Automate On-Site Presence Tracking

This two-way integration bridges the gap between physical security and visitor management. Previously, staff and visitors often used a fob to unlock a door only to manually register their arrival at a separate terminal. By connecting these workflows, organizations can now generate real-time presence data directly from the initial access event. This shift supports critical functions such as emergency evacuation planning and compliance with statutory record-keeping, particularly within the education sector, where maintaining an accurate list of occupants is a standard requirement.

Beyond streamlining staff arrivals, the system simplifies visitor management by allowing administrators to provision Net2 credentials directly through the Sign In App interface. This removes the administrative burden of managing access rights across disparate systems. According to Chris Burton, executive vice president of strategy at Sign In App, the goal is to shift access control from a binary 'yes or no' security check to a broader intelligence platform that understands the context of an individual's presence. The integration is available immediately for existing users of both platforms, requiring no replacement of current card readers or infrastructure.
