OLOID + GENETEC Integration

Passwordless identity for connected facilities and digital systems

Enable secure, context-aware access across Genetec-managed physical environments and digital applications while OLOID delivers phishing-resistant authentication and continuous session control across shared and personal endpoints.

Features & benefits

Multiple modes for establishing identity at your workplace Modern physical access for smartphone & non-smartphone users

Strengthening Physical & Digital Access with Modern Identity

Extend your physical security ecosystem with modern identity and authentication by combining Genetec’s open security platform with OLOID’s passwordless workforce identity layer.

Identity-Driven Facility Access

Genetec manages doors, readers, and zones while OLOID verifies user identity and enforces access policies across physical and digital environments.

One Credential Across Spaces and Systems

Use biometrics, passkeys, or badge-based credentials to unlock secured areas and authenticate into applications.

Built for Shared and Shift-Based Workflows

Support kiosks, service desks, and frontline handheld devices with fast user switching and secure credential handoff.

Access Decisions Informed by Security Events

Correlate Genetec access and zone signals with OLOID session intelligence to enable adaptive access rules.

Integration Without System Replacement

Deploy OLOID into existing Genetec installations through supported APIs without re-architecting your access-control stack.

Key Capabilities & Use Cases

Capability Description Benefit
Passwordless Physical & Digital Access Enforce biometrics, passkeys, or badge/NFC credentials for Genetec-managed facilities and applications Eliminates shared credentials
Shared Device & Shift Handoff Support Enable secure user switching on kiosks and frontline devices Prevents session overlap
Context-Aware Access Policies Combine Genetec access and zone events with OLOID identity context Stronger security with less friction
Continuous Monitoring & Session Protection Monitor access behavior and trigger re-authentication when risk is detected Reduces misuse after login
Unified Identity Experience Deliver one authentication flow for doors, devices, and applications Improves user adoption
API-Based Integration Integrate into existing Genetec deployments Faster rollout with lower impact

How It Works

Below is a representative flow for using OLOID + Genetec together:

  1. User Initiates Entry or Login

    A user attempts to unlock a Genetec-controlled door or sign in to a digital application.

  2. Authentication Routed to OLOID

    The authentication request is routed to OLOID to invoke strong credentials such as biometrics, passkeys, or badges.

  3. Identity & Access Context Evaluation

    OLOID evaluates user identity, device posture, session state, and Genetec access signals including door, reader, and zone events.

  4. Access Enforcement

    If policy conditions are met, Genetec unlocks the door or OLOID establishes a secure digital session.

  5. Continuous Oversight & Re-Auth

    OLOID continuously monitors behavior and can require re-authentication or terminate access if risk conditions arise.
