Access control solution designed for smarter spaces
Strengthen security and simplify everyday access with access master. Manage entry permissions, monitor activity, and coordinate security responses through one access control solution.
Trusted by 1000+ organisations worldwide
Protecting your organization starts with controlling access to its spaces. Employees, contractors, and visitors need appropriate permissions, while sensitive areas require tighter restrictions. Access Master, IDCUBE’s access control solution, helps you manage these requirements centrally. Define who can enter each area and when, across doors, gates, entrance barriers, and elevator floors. Offer convenient entry with cards, biometrics, PINs, and mobile credentials through compatible readers and services, while maintaining your facility’s access policies.
Beyond door access control, access master gives security teams a consolidated view of access events, door status, and alarms. Teams can assess incidents and coordinate configured actions for lockdowns and fire evacuations. Access reports and operator audit trails provide records for investigations and internal reviews, helping your organization maintain oversight and accountability across facilities.

Access Master comparison
Compare basic standalone access control solution with access master’s centralized approach to permissions, monitoring, and coordinated security responses.
| Capability | Basic standalone access control | Access Master |
|---|---|---|
| Permission management | Permissions are configured locally, with changes often repeated at individual doors. | Manage permissions centrally using reusable access groups, schedules, and default permissions for new employees. |
| Multi-site administration | Unconnected installations require separate administration. | Manage connected facilities centrally, with shared access groups for assigned users across branches. |
| Credential flexibility | Credential options depend on the selected standalone device. | Manage access using cards, biometrics, PINs, mobile credentials, and dynamic QR codes through compatible readers and services. |
| Access rules | Local authorization and available time restrictions govern entry. | Apply scheduled permissions, anti-passback, occupancy controls, and door interlocking through supported hardware and configurations. |
| Monitoring and audit records | Unconnected devices do not provide a live, consolidated monitoring interface. Recording capabilities vary by device. | Bring access events, door status, and alarms into one interface, with access reports and operator audit trails. |
| Emergency coordination | Emergency release depends on local hardware and configured connections. | Coordinate configured door actions and alarm activations across connected access points during lockdowns and fire evacuations. |
| Business and security integrations | Connecting standalone devices to wider workflows requires compatible interfaces and additional systems. | Support configured integrations with compatible HRMS, ERP, video surveillance, and other security systems. |
| Deployment choice | Local door control operates without a centrally hosted management application. | Choose cloud deployment through Access360.AI, or on-premises and supported private cloud deployment through Access360 Helix. |

Latest access control insights & resources
Frequently asked questions
An access control system checks a person’s credentials against assigned permissions to determine whether entry is allowed. Access Master lets administrators define who can enter specific doors or areas and at what times. Supported controllers enforce configured access rules, while recorded events help security teams monitor and review activity.
Access control solution by IDCUBE Systems lets administrators configure permissions for employees, visitors, contractors, tenants, and vehicles. Access groups combine reader groups with access schedules to define permitted entry points and timings. Time codes, time zones, holidays, and holiday groups help teams apply working-hour and holiday rules without configuring every user’s door permission separately.
Cards, biometrics, PINs, mobile credentials, and dynamic QR codes can support door access control, depending on compatible readers and credential services. Access Master links supported credentials to assigned access permissions. Available authentication methods depend on the selected hardware, integrations, and deployment configuration.
IDCUBE’s Access Master is available through Access360.AI for cloud deployment and Access360 Helix for on-premises deployment. The choice depends on your organization’s hosting requirements, IT resources, and operational policies. Some configuration options differ between deployments and should be checked against the required access workflows.
Centrally managed access control solution help authorized teams administer permissions across connected facilities. Access Master by IDCUBE supports shared access groups for cross-branch access. Access360.AI lets administrators select which branches receive a shared group. In Helix, enabling a shared access group makes it visible to all associated branches for user assignment.
Access Master supports anti-passback, multi-man rules, occupancy management, and multi-door interlocking to strengthen access control security. These controls govern credential-use sequences, multi-person authorization, occupancy, and coordinated door operation. Their behavior depends on the configured rules and supported hardware. For example, hard multi-man rules require all defined roles to authenticate before entry is granted.
A door access control solution can include elevator floor permissions through supported controllers and elevator interfaces. Access Master solution of IDCUBE uses elevator groups to define permitted floors for assignment through access groups. Compatible Mercury and Aero configurations also support time zones for individual floors or a common time zone across selected floors.
Authorized operators can initiate lockdown, emergency evacuation, and reset-to-normal commands for a selected branch or door action group. IDCUBE’s Access Master also provides area counts and location records based on configured movement tracking. These records support emergency assessment, with accuracy dependent on captured entry and exit activity.
Integrated access control solutions can connect identity and physical security workflows across supported systems. Access Master supports integrations with systems such as HRMS, ERP, video surveillance, and building management. Available data exchange and operator actions vary by integration, so compatibility and required workflows should be confirmed for the proposed deployment.
