CyberLock cylinders operate in a wide variety of applications where high security is required

The CyberLock access control solution incorporates the mechanical lock hardware that is already being used in a facility, and each mechanical lock core is simply replaced with an e-cylinder for full-featured, electronic access control. Further, no wiring, battery or structural changes are required to retrofit existing locks, and the cylinders are energized by the battery in the key.

The CyberLock system allows facility managers to track traffic throughout their facility, even in isolated areas with no available power, such as perimeter gates and server cabinets. The e-cylinders and keys record lock openings as well as unauthorized attempts to gain entry, including a user ID and time and date stamp. The system's email alerts and audit reporting of each person's key and lock activity keep management updated, so informed decisions can be made when potential security issues arise.

Containing encrypted access codes to identify the system to which they belong, Cyberlock's cylinders record the last 1,100 authorized and denied access events in memory, and they contain a list of lost/stolen keys to prevent lost keys from gaining access. They have no pickable keyway and are tamper, torque and stun-gun resistant. A drill-resistant, high-security option is also available.

CyberLock cylinders operate in a wide variety of applications where high security is required, such as entry gates, substations, containers, equipment closets, remote storage areas, trucks, storage bins, and more. CyberKey® smart keys cannot be duplicated or copied and can be deactivated if lost or stolen, reducing the risk of unauthorized entry.

CyberLock Inc. products are manufactured at company headquarters in the city of Corvallis, Ore. For more information, contact CyberLock by phone at (541) 738-5500, fax at (541) 738-5501 or email at [email protected], or visit www.cyberlock.com.
