Architect® Core

Architect® Core

Optimize the management of your access control equipment with the module that lets you autonomously upgrade your Architect® readers. This upgradeable module supports a wide range of contactless identification technologies, including MIFARE® (Ultralight®, Classic EV1, Plus, DESFire® EV3) and NFC virtual cards (STid Mobile ID®, Apple Wallet™). The associated flexible antenna is not integrated.

Highly Secure
The electronic core supports the latest contactless chip technologies, such as MIFARE® DESFire® EV3, and incorporates advanced data protection features:

  • Secure Messaging EV2: protection against interleaving and replay attacks.
  • Proximity Check: protection against relay attacks.

It also enables the use of public security algorithms (3DES, AES, RSA, SHA…) recognized by leading independent organizations specializing in information security, such as FIPS & ANSSI.

Interoperable
The module is designed to seamlessly integrate with all access control systems, supporting a wide range of interfaces and protocols, including Wiegand, Clock&Data, SSCP®, and OSDP™. This flexibility ensures compatibility across various setups and simplifies system upgrades or changes without requiring new hardware.

Eco-Design and Cost Efficient
The module effectively addresses your specific needs while simplifying maintenance, lowering operational costs, and optimizing inventory management.
