What is a Network Appliance? - A
Network Appliance is a completely self-contained Device with all
of the processing power, memory, software, and communications
interface to perform a specific function on a network without
requiring a Server or a dedicated PC to perform its duties.
The iGuard Security Device is a field
proven Network Appliance that performs the functions of
Time & Attendance and Access Control utilizing a completely self
contained web server that can be accessed through any web
browser (Internet Explorer, Netscape, Apple, Unix or Linux
Browsers). iGuard is the world first
Network Appliance for access
control and time attendance applications. It supports both
biometric fingerprint & Mifare contact-less smart card
authentication and its administration can be done anywhere using
web browser through the Internet - anytime!The revolutionary
iGuard has been setting industry standard in security access
control industry since its introduction in early 1999. It was
the first Biometric Network Appliance
to:
- Store fingerprint on a contact-less smart card.
- Employ TCP/IP as a communication protocol.
- Employ embedded web and network server.

iGuard IP Network Security Device
 |
iGuard IP Based Security Appliance
Time/Attendance and/or Access Control.
ANY LM SERIES DEVICE may act as the master unit
for the network for enrollment of up to 1000 employees.
You may inter-mix FSC (Fingerprint with Smart Card) and
SC (Smart Card Only) units on the same network provided
that they are al LM Series Devices. After 1000
enrollees it is necessary to use a LM Series Super
Master as the primary controlling device. |
 |
LM SuperMaster - The LM
Series is the latest iGuard Security Appliance
series and has many new and innovative features
including the ability to add a Super Master Server
Appliance that increases the capacity of users up to
20,000. |
 |
LM Series Standard - You can
start with the basic series LM520FSC and have
multi-factor authentication for up to 1000 employees
using Mifare Smart Cards or ID Code and Fingerprint.
The LM520SC is a great smart card only time/attendance
or access control device. |
The iGuard Security System is a field-proven
Biometrics (Fingerprint
Verification), and/or Contactless Mifare Smart Card Access
Control & Time Attendance Network Appliance for business.
Utilizing fingerprint
authentication, the iGuard system provides unparalleled
security, performance and reliability.
Unlike other security systems that require proprietary
components, the iGuard incorporates an embedded Web Server,
which enables all computers, such as Apple Macintosh, PCs, Unix,
: in the corporate computer network to setup, maintain and
access the information of the device simultaneously using the
well-known Internet Browser.
The unique iGuard Security Network Appliance can be used as a
stand alone security system or it can be integrated into a
network wide security platform.
The
iGuard Security Network Appliance is a Biometrics
(fingerprint identification) and Contactless Smart Card Access
Control & Time Attendance system designed for business.
Scaleable from 20 to 20,000 users, iGuard represents one of the
most flexible and cost effective systems on the market today for
access control or time & attendance.
The iGuard Security Network Appliance uses the
most-advanced capacitive fingerprint sensor for fingerprint
acquisition, to achieve the highest fingerprint-identification
results in the industry. Multi-Factor Authentication utilizing
fingerprints, PIN, and/or Mifare contactless smart card
technology will allow your organization to positively
authenticate individuals and grant or deny access based upon
their credentials.
And unlike other security systems, iGuard
includes the iGuard patented embedded Web Server, which enables
all computers, such as Apple Macintosh, Windows PCs & Unix
machines, in the corporate computer network to setup, maintain
and access the information of the device simultaneously using
the well-known Internet Browser. The embedded web server and
database engines allow you to focus on operating your business
without the hassle of dedicating PC and server resources to run
and house the data.
Each iGuard Biometric / Smart Card Security Appliance has
a built-in Web Server enables all the computers in the
corporate network to directly & simultaneously access the
device using any Internet Browser, such as Microsoft
Internet Explorer & Netscape Navigator. Different computer
platforms such as Apple Macintosh, Microsoft Windows & Linux
machines can access the device.
No additional software is required. So whether you are in
an airport lounge or a hotel room, you can always check if
your employees are already in the office or not, and you can
even control, modify or disable their access rights to your
office remotely via internet connection provided your iGuard
Biometric / Smart Card Security Appliance is connected to an
external IP address or your network is available through a
VPN connection that is reachable from your location.
Patented Technologies:
As a company dedicated to innovation, design and
engineering, Lucky Technology obtained the US patent for
the iGuard Biometric / Smart Card Security Appliance's
built-in web-interface in 2003 (US
patent number 6,643,779). Our "pursuit of
perfection" makes it possible for you to have the
leading-edge technology of the iGuard Biometric / Smart
Card Security Appliance in security and time-attendance
systems --- easily.
Master/Slave Unit configuration:
Multiple iGuard Biometric / Smart Card Security
Appliances can be setup as a Master/Slave network with
up to a 20,000 user capability. Under this
configuration, one iGuard Biometric / Smart Card
Security Appliance or the iGuard Super Master would be
assigned the role as the Master device, and all other
iGuard Biometric / Smart Card Security Appliances are
configured as slave devices.
When a user enroll in any one of these iGuard units,
his / her user information, including the fingerprint
information, would be replicated to all other iGuard
units in the same master / slave network, so the same
user does not need to enroll multiple times in order to
have the access rights to all these units.

How it works -- as an
Access Control System
iGuard analyzes & compares a person's fingerprint
against the previously enrolled record. If the two
fingerprints match, the person is authenticated. And if
the time is within the authorized period for entry, the
device will signal & release the electric door lock.

The iGuard Security System analyzes and compares a
person's fingerprint against the previously enrolled
record. If the two fingerprints match, the person is
authenticated. And if the time is within the authorized
period for entry, the device will signal and release the
electric door lock.
- Access Time restriction - you can define the
authorized time for each individual or for a group
of individuals.
- Terminal restriction - you can specify who has
the rights to access a particular terminal. It is
useful in a multi-device environment, where multiple
doors are controlled by different devices.
- Password/Fingerprint Access - you can define the
period in which password can be used instead of
fingerprint for access. This is particularly useful
if you want to just use password to access during
normal office hours, but to restrict the access to
authorized people only after office hours.
The Access Control Mode controls the employees from
entering the business premises. The system controls the
electronic door strike to lock / unlock the door. Users
can be assigned to different departments and the
authorized time for members in each department can also
be controlled. In a multi-device environment, the access
rights for each department in accessing different
terminals can also be assigned.

How it works -- as a
Time Attendance System
When configured as a Time Attendance System, a user
can specify whether he/she is clocking-in or
clocking-out. By using fingerprints to determine
identity, buddy-punching problems can be totally
eliminated as well as other fraud. Attendance of each
employee is printed on the attendance report. The
attendance report is particularly useful for payroll
purposes. Wages and salaries can be paid according to
the employee’s worked hours, overtime etc. Wages and
salaries can be integrated with a smart card or
automatic deposit payroll system.
