New Features in Symmetry
Security Management System
Several new features offer maximum benefits to end users

Tewkesbury, Gloucestershire, May 21, 2007 – Group 4 Technology (G4Tec) announced today at IFSEC the release of its newly upgraded Symmetry Security Management System. Several new features make Symmetry a better choice for companies needing a complete security management system.

Access Control

Creating credentials is now easier than ever with the new Symmetry Identity Management module. The Identity menu makes it easy to navigate, design and produce access cards. Users save time by creating cards faster.

Integrate all company wide systems with Symmetry to analyze data and create efficient processes and policies within a company. Symmetry’s Data Connect module allows users to create detailed reports from all systems, whether it is a human resource, CCTV, cashless payment, or burglar alarm system, to best manage a complete security system.

Symmetry’s new Command Center displays the status of all devices in a tree display. Users can operate the system right from the tree view. Enhanced permissions can restrict devices and options available to individual users that you define.

Intrusion

Symmetry’s new Intrusion Management module with separate toolbar displays a summary of all intrusion devices in real-time. Security guards can see at a glance all activity occurring. A new device tree shows the status of a defined list of areas, zones and detectors. The status of these same areas and devices are also displayed on the dynamic graphical maps.

“Symmetry’s new features provide end users with more precise control over their security management systems,” said G4Tec, Vice President of Marketing, Kim Loy.

Hardware

Symmetry’s new enclosure provides the highest ratio of readers per square foot. The enclosure is available with an eight reader M2150 8DBC installed, however, an additional eight reader M2150 8DBC intelligent controller can be added to provide a full 16 reader capability.
