Physical Security

Clear Government Solutions’ secure cloud computing takes Physical Access Control Systems (PACS) to the next level by providing PACS solutions across the typical geographically dispersed and technologically heterogeneous environments found in almost all federal agencies.  Cloud PACS deployment provides a means of managing various different PACS solutions so long as they are hosted in the cloud.  While any prime cloud provider may pursue this vertical market (i.e., cloud security), CGS has its roots in physical security and, as such, has a formidable lead among cloud providers in the area of physical security.

Successful Physical Access Control systems today are all IP based, allowing supervisory personnel to monitor, manage, provision and de-provision access remotely through secure web services.  CGS provides full end-to-end Physical Access Control solutions including:

• PIV Card Registration
• Card Management
• Revocation Inquiry
• Card Holder Access
• Digital Certificate Validation
• IDMS and CMS functionality

CGS authenticates the users’ identity when attempting to gain cloud access.  The key to accurate authentication is through validating the presence and currency of the X.509 certificates encoded on the users’ PIV credentials.  

CGS’s partners in delivering physical cloud security include top tier PACS manufacturers such as:

• Convergint
• Hirsch Electronics
• MDI
• Simplex Grinnell
• Brivo
