Aspects of the disclosure relate to electronic access control. An electronic key can access a set of one or more electronic locks according to scheduled access permissions. Access schedules may define one or more authorized time periods during which access to an electronic lock is permitted. Access schedules can be generated based on user input received via a user interface. A key configuration corresponding to an access schedule is transmitted from a server to the electronic key. The set of electronic locks includes at least one lock designated as a conditional access lock. The conditional access lock is associated with access control information including at least one of environment data or personnel data. Responsive to determining that the access control information does not meet one or more criteria, the server automatically adjusts access schedules and generates a corresponding key configuration for the electronic key.

A system and a method for providing security to premises. A method includes receiving first access information from an accessing unit associated with a premises on accessing the premises by a first user and second access information from a sensing unit associated with the premises on sensing access of the premises by a second user. The method further includes determining correlation between the first access information and the second access information and transmitting a message based on the correlation.

Systems and apparatuses for safety deposit box access using a smart table and a locker are described herein. A safety deposit box access system includes a smart table and a locker. The smart table includes a processing circuit configured to receive an appointment request from a customer user device. The processing circuit is further configured to authenticate the customer, verify the customer is authorized to access the safety deposit box, release the safety deposit box from the locker, measure the change in weight of the safety deposit box, lock the locker, and transmit a notification to the customer when the safety deposit box has been returned to the vault.

It is provided a method for managing access control to a physical space controlled by a first lock device. The method is performed by an access management device, and comprises the steps of: determining whether a mobile credential is located inside or outside a barrier secured by a lock device; storing an inside indicator in association with the mobile credential when it is located on the inside of the barrier, the inside indicator being valid until explicitly cleared; and preventing the mobile credential from establishing a communication channel with the first lock device when a valid inside indicator is stored for the mobile credential.

An access control system for electric vehicle charging is provided that includes an access device, a secure reservation interface, a reservation server and a smartphone application installed on the smartphone. The access device includes a short-range wireless communication module connected to a processor having control of an electric vehicle charger. The secure reservation interface receives a reservation request for a reservation at a given destination. The reservation server receives the reservation request for the destination, issues a reservation certificate, and transmits the reservation certificate from the reservation server to a smartphone. The smartphone application has access to a short range wireless communication setting corresponding to the access device. The access device receives the reservation certificate from the smartphone application based on use by the smartphone application of the short-range wireless communication setting. The processor activates the electric vehicle charger based on at least the receipt of the reservation certificate.

A depository operates to accept and make available deposit items to authorized users responsive at least in part to data read from data bearing records. The depository (10) includes a body (12) that bounds and interior area (14). The depository includes a door (18) that is controlled by a lock (24) so that only authorized users can access the interior area. The depository includes at least one input device (20) operative to receive data usable to identify users authorized to access the depository. At least one reading device (26) is operative to read indicia included on depository items so that depository items placed in or removed from the interior area can be tracked. The depository is in operative connection with a network (50) that enables the transport and tracking of deposit items.

Systems and methods for monitoring and management of an electronic device are discussed here. An authentication request is received from a user for access to an electronically secured compartment of an electronic device. Authentication data is obtained from the user. An authentication request that includes a device identifier for the electronically secured compartment and the authentication data is transmitted to a cloud-based authentication service. Access to the electronically secured compartment is provided upon receipt of an indication of an association between the user and the electronically secured compartment from the cloud-based service provider.

A vehicle door lock system includes: a door lock; a vehicle event sensor; and a processing circuitry, the processing circuitry is configured to cause the vehicle door lock system to generate first triggering event data, indicative of a first triggering event detected by the vehicle event sensor, caused by a movement of an object onto, or in the vicinity of, the vehicle, at a first time, obtain, from a portable electronic device, second triggering event data, indicative of a second triggering event caused by a movement of the portable electronic device, at a second time, determine if the first triggering event and the second triggering event both occurs within a predetermined time period by comparing the first triggering event data and the second triggering event data.

A locking and release system of a lock fitted on a vehicle comprising: a mechanical lock (10, 70) which is fixed on a door of a vehicle; an electronic circuit (11) associated with said lock (10, 70); said electronic circuit (11) comprises a Bluetooth communication device (13); an Internet communication device (14); a GPS localization device (15); said system further comprises: a cloud (30) containing the data for the management of said system; a management centre (35) of said system; said management centre (35) is adapted to communicate with said cloud (30); a smartphone (21); said smartphone (21) comprises a Bluetooth communication device (22); an HTTPS communication device (23); and a GPS localization device (24); said electronic circuit (11) and said smartphone (21) are adapted to communicate with said cloud (30); said smartphone (21) is adapted to communicate with said electronic circuit (11); said lock (10, 70) opens if the following conditions are met: the GPS position of the lock (10, 70) coincides with the delivery position; the GPS position of the smartphone (21) coincides with the delivery position; said smartphone (21) is recognized by the system; said lock comprises coupling means (56, 74), located on a first door adapted to close against closing means (59, 71) located on a second door and locking means (60, 78) adapted to lock said coupling means (56, 74) in the closed position.

A physical access control system enables acceptable portal entry codes upon receiving each physical access request by operating on the elapsed time from a previous physical access request to generate a temporal credential. The controller receives a plurality of physical access requests from a plurality of mobile application devices. Upon authenticating the first access request, the controller eliminates repetition from the space of acceptable successor requests from each mobile application device. Monotonic nonces advance the range of temporal code matches. Entry code generation is decentralized to distributed application devices and is inherently unknowable until a successor access request is initiated by the same application device.
