Integrated Energy Saving Security
Solutions from Paxton

Over the past decade, using less energy has been the goal of many companies to reduce their carbon footprint. However, many UK & European businesses are looking for additional ways to curb usage against the rising cost of energy. Paxton’s range of access control products provide useful tools for installers to help their customers use less energy and save money on bills.

As we know, leaving appliances on when a room is empty is not good practice and ultimately leads to a waste of energy and money. The good news is that Paxton’s product range provide features that can help save energy consumption. With simple know how, installers can set up systems and recommend specific Paxton products that will really make a difference to the efficient running of buildings and sites.

Triggers and Actions

Both Net2 and Paxton10 provide ‘Trigger and Actions’ which mean that administrators can easily create rules based on system events like a door opening or closing. You can set your system to switch off lights, heating or other electrical appliances when a room is no longer in use, to stop energy wastage.

In addition, you can create rules within a system to accomplish complex actions or control unique appliances, such as controlling the access and use of equipment, machinery or appliances in parts of a building.

Net2 - Occupancy Management

Net2 offers a recently developed Occupancy Management feature. Net2 Pro software can be set to quickly and easily manage the flow of people around your building and control the maximum number of people in any given area...

SALTO Achieves Secured by Design Secure Connected Device Accreditation for IoT Products

SALTO Systems has become one of the first electronic access control manufacturers to achieve Secured by Design’s new "Secure Connected Device" accreditation for IoT products.

With the Government soon to introduce new legislation in the shape of the Product Security and Telecommunications Infrastructure (PSTI) Bill, coupled with a growing demand from Industry and current members seeking to gain accreditation for IoT products, Secured by Design has launched a new 'Secure Connected Device' accreditation scheme. 

The new scheme enables companies providing IoT connected products and services to demonstrate that their products have achieved the appropriate and relevant IoT standards and certifications from an Secured by Design recognised certification body.

Working closely with certification bodies who assess IoT products and services against all 13 provisions of the ETSI EN 303 645 standard, Secured by Design’s IoT device assessment, identifies the level of risk associated with an IoT device and its ecosystem, providing recommendations on the appropriate certification routes.

Once third party testing and independent certification for a product has been achieved, the product will be awarded Secured by Design’s "Secure Connected Device" accreditation, a unique and recognisable accreditation that will highlight products as having achieved the relevant IoT standards and certifications.

The requirements to obtain the Secure Connected Device accreditation are...
