The integration between Symmetry CONNECT 2.0 and SwiftConnect won the Security Industry Association (SIA) New Product Showcase award in the Convergence & Integration Solutions category, said AMAG Technology and SwiftConnect.
According to the companies, this underscores the industry’s growing demand for a smarter, more practical approach to physical identity and access management in complex enterprise environments.
The SIA New Product Showcase occurred at ISC West, the world’s largest security tradeshow in Las Vegas, Nevada.
Symmetry CONNECT 2.0
The companies explained that the integrated solution addresses one of the most pressing challenges facing large organisations today: managing identities and credentials across multiple physical access control systems (PACS), often spread across regions, business units and facilities acquired via mergers and acquisitions.
Built to help customers manage one identity across disparate PACS environments, the integration provides organisations with a path to centralised identity administration without requiring a disruptive and expensive rip-and-replace of existing systems.
For customers, the benefits are immediate and measurable. Instead of relying on disconnected systems, manual processes, spreadsheets and email-based approvals, organisations can centralise identity and access administration.
The company added that this means faster onboarding and offboarding, fewer orphaned access privileges, cleaner audit trails, more consistent policy enforcement and a more efficient path to scaling security operations globally. It is seamless to the employees who use the same credential regardless of location or access system.
The integration is valuable for large enterprises in critical infrastructure, healthcare, banking, data centers and other highly regulated industries where centralised management, compliance and operational continuity are essential.
“Meeting customers where they are”
David Sullivan, President and CEO at AMAG Technology commented: “Winning the SIA New Product Showcase is an exciting validation of the problem we set out to solve.
“With Symmetry CONNECT 2.0, networked by SwiftConnect, we are meeting customers where they are, helping them manage identities across existing different access control systems.
“That is a game changer for organisations dealing with growth, acquisitions and increasing security complexity,” Sullivan concluded.
“The power of partnership”
Matt Kopel, Co-CEO at SwiftConnect said: “This recognition highlights the power of partnership and smart innovation.
“Together with AMAG, we’ve created a solution that helps enterprises simplify identity lifecycle management across mixed PACS environments while preserving their existing investments.”
