Access360 Helix
Access360 Helix is IDCUBE’s on-premise access control platform for organizations that want direct control over physical security infrastructure and access data. Servers, databases, access logs, and system configurations remain within the organization’s environment. Security teams can manage access rights, credentials, biometrics, visitor management, attendance, and monitoring from one central platform.

Across Middle East region, this model suits government facilities, hospitality groups, commercial developments, oil and gas sites, corporate campuses, smart buildings, and related enterprise facilities. The organizations evaluating on premise access control in Dubai or on premise access control in Saudi Arabia can align Access360 Helix with their own infrastructure, security policies, and operational requirements. Access360 Helix connects compatible controllers, readers, biometric devices, and enterprise systems through an open architecture. This premise-based access control approach therefore, helps organizations modernize security while retaining compatible existing infrastructure where appropriate.
