Community Infrastructure Protection - Common Pass™ provides community coordinated emergency preparedness and locally controlled Responder access.
| Challenge |
Common Pass™ Solution |
| Prepare Responder lists |
Provide a community-wide Responder database which can then be stored at any door anywhere, even where the Responders are unknown to the existing access control
|
| Plan for an incident |
Utilize Common Pass™ Incident Response Scenarios to define Responder access for different incident types |
| Respond to an incident |
The infrastructure owner/operator activates the Incident Response Scenario when an incident occurs allowing specific Responder access, even if the Responder is unknown to the existing access control system
|
| Accept all Responder IDs |
Accept any ID format including FIPS-201 ID cards, even where the existing access control panel is notdesigned to accept these for mats
|
| Support Federal programs - three key components |
Provide Emergency Preparedness, Responder access and FIPS-201 ID acceptance
|
Community Coordinated Emergency Preparedness
Responder Database – pre-load 400,000 Responder IDs of any format at any critical infrastructure location.
Incident Preparedness – pre-load Incident Response Scenarios defining which Responders are allowed access during an incident - at any critical Infrastructure location.
Locally Controlled Responder Access
Activate scenario and allow Responder access – when an incident occurs, the local infrastructure owner/operator activates the pre-loaded Incident Response Scenario allowing Responder access, even where the Responders are unknown to the local existing access control system.
Recognize Responders – accept any ID badge format including “smart” cards such as FIPS-201 ID cards - even where the local existing access control system does not accept these advanced ID card formats.
Federal Programs – Common Pass™ works with Federal Programs for Critical Infrastructure Protection from The Department of Homeland Security (DHS), The Urban Area Security Initiative (UASI), The Department of Education (DOE) and the Department of Justice (DOJ). Common Pass™ provides Emergency Preparedness, Responder incident access and FIPS-201 ID support – the three key working components for these programs.
