Regular employees are not the only people accessing a site by vehicle.

Contractors, suppliers, customers, visitors, drivers and maintenance teams all need access — but their access requirements can vary significantly.

For security teams, the challenge is therefore twofold: quickly authorise expected visitors while maintaining full control over who enters and leaves the site.

A vehicle is also an identity

When a visitor arrives on site, access control generally focuses on their identity. But in many environments, the vehicle itself is also an essential piece of information.

Knowing which vehicle is associated with a visitor can help teams:

  • monitor their arrival;
  • grant access to specific areas;
  • track entries and exits;
  • distinguish temporary authorised vehicles from permanent ones;
  • simplify security operations.

The limitations of manual management

In a low-traffic environment, a security officer can manually check each vehicle. But when dozens of vehicles arrive at the same time, this approach quickly becomes difficult to manage.

Manual checks can result in:

  • longer waiting times;
  • identification errors;
  • increased workload for security teams;
  • a poorer visitor experience.

Automation makes it possible to move the access control process upstream and reduce friction at the entrance.

Digitising visitor access

With STid Mobile ID combined with a Spectre nano reader, temporary visitors can receive a virtual credential directly on their smartphone, with access rights customised according to their profile and the duration of their visit.

No physical badge is required. Visitors simply use their smartphone to access authorised areas in a seamless, contactless way.

Access rights can be defined in advance and limited to a specific period, providing precise control over temporary access.

STid Mobile ID does not use the visitor’s personal data to identify them. Identification relies solely on their smartphone and virtual credential.

Visitor management can therefore be simple, seamless and secure.

With a digital credential on a smartphone, personalised access rights and automatic identification through a Spectre nano reader, sites can simplify the visitor experience while maintaining precise control over temporary access.
