  • DETECTING AND RESPONDING TO AN ATYPICAL BEHAVIOR
    Publication number: 20140053248
    Abstract: Methods, devices, and systems are provided for optimizing the dissemination of information in various types of systems such as an access control system. More specifically, there are provided herein various mechanisms to provide a modified agent path such that an agent following the modified agent path, may update at least one non-networked reader. The update of the at least one non-networked reader not occurring if the agent follows an unmodified agent path.

  • METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR MAKING A DECISION ON A CARD
    Publication number: 20140013418
    Abstract: Method and devices for making access decisions in a secure access network are provided. The access decisions are made by a portable credential using data and algorithms stored on the credential. Since access decisions are made by the portable credential non-networked hosts or local hosts can be employed that do not necessarily need to be connected to a central access controller or database thereby reducing the cost of building and maintaining the secure access network.
