About Mobile Guard

Connect your Android mobile device securely to your Access Control System using the ‘MobileGuard/Mob8’ App.

By linking with our GuardPoint 10 access control system (ACS), MobileGuard enables real-time monitoring of your users. You can perform access card and/or QR code validation on-the-move. Scanning a user’s badge/card provides: photo, location and validation details - allowing you to conduct impromptu spot-checks and update users into their correct location (Mobile Check-in).

You can use MobileGuard to confirm the location of individuals during an evacuation, ensuring that everyone is accounted for and safe (Fire Mustering).
The application can operate in an offline mode, using a per-downloaded database snap-shot. This allows MobileGuard to be used in instances where network connectivity is unavailable for example on coach trips or at festivals.

Card Technologies Supported

• 13.56MHz RFID/Proximity cards (via external or NFC-enabled mobile reader)
• Mifare Desfire (contact Sensor Access on how to add your own unique company read key and security profile)
• 125khz Proximity cards (via an external reader)
• 32bit QR-Code Tickets/Temporary Passes
Mobile device’s NFC fields vary in strength depending on the device/device cover. For high volume environments, using an external USB-C reader is recommended.

Security Features

Access Control Systems will often contain sensitive personal information. MobileGuard provides the following data-protection mechanisms:

Application settings are protected by an additional biometric prompt, when available.

When MobileGuard is used in production environments, we recommend using a secure 2-factor authenticated encrypted connection to the ACS.

MobileGuard supports cryptographic keys from the device’s internal keystore (Android Keystore system) to achieve 2-factor (Device key and Password) authenticated secure connections. The server must be setup to enforce client certificate authentication (mTLSv1.2/mTLSv1.3).
