AMAG

AMAG Technology is one of the security industry’s leading manufacturers of card and biometric access control systems, with over 30 years experience in providing state-of-the-art products worldwide. AMAG is part of Group 4 Technology, a wholly-owned subsidiary of Group 4 Securicor, one of the world’s largest security companies.

In 1970, Group 4 produced their first access control system in Europe and since then has been at the leading edge of technological advances in access control. They introduced their first microprocessor system in 1983, which has proved so reliable that it is still being supported today. Their first DOS-based PC system was launched in 1987, and since then the multiMAX brand has been installed in thousands of government and commercial installations throughout Europe and the Middle East.

In 1990, Group 4 purchased American Magnetics Corporation (AMC), based in Carson, California (USA). AMC had pioneered magnetic-stripe card technology in 1971 and developed their own AMAG™ brand access control systems in 1985. AMC quickly became a leading manufacturer in the Americas, Far East and Pacific Rim, supplying products to over 150 companies in the USA alone.

Group 4 recognized that AMC's expertise, reputation, and depth outside of their own core markets of Europe and the Middle East provided an ideal opportunity to expand their access control presence worldwide. Combining a leading access control product with Group 4's unique worldwide experience has resulted in a global network of installers with the expertise and in-depth knowledge necessary to comply with countries' varying requirements and regulations for access control.

In 1997, American Magnetics' name was changed to Group 4 Securitas Technology Corporation. A major milestone was reached in 1999 when Group 4's AMAG brand Access Control System was selected for installation in the Pentagon. Since then, AMAG has been involved in some of the world's largest and most complex smart card and biometric access control projects for both public and private entities.

In February of 2003, the company's name was changed to AMAG Technology. Also that year, AMAG reintroduced its product line, scaled to the needs of small, remote facilities and multinational organizations alike. AMAG products feature open-architecture standards and are compliant with Windows 2000 and XP operating systems. AMAG, through technology partnerships with best-of-breed security product developers, offers an expanding range of modules to enhance the capabilities of its AMAG access control systems. The modules include Digital Video Management, Smart Card Encoding, Biometrics, Intrusion Alarms, Intercom Management, etc. AMAG also offers one of the only access control products that supports the federal government's SEIWG-012 physical access control credential standard.

AMAG is a leading security systems integrator. AMAG products are forming the "head-end" in a new generation of Integrated Security Systems based around access control, digital video, alarms management, smart cards, biometrics and other related technologies.

AMAG Technology, Inc., is part of Group 4 Securicor, one of the world's largest security companies, employing over 340,000 people in more than 100 countries and posting annual revenues of US $6 billion.

Northern Computers is the leading authority and largest manufacturer/supplier of access control and integrated security solutions Worldwide. Our inception into the access control industry began in 1982 and was the first company to offer PC based access control software.

During the 90s, Northern Computers went from strength to strength, with new products being continually developed and revised as technology advanced. Northern's pioneering work has contributed to industry growth in the field of access control.

In December 1998 Northern Computers was successfully incorporated into the Chicago based Pittway Corporation, the World's leading manufacturer and distributor of security and fire systems, with revenues in excess of $2 billion. Their products are marketed globally under the Ademco, Microtech, VCL, Intellisense, Notifier, System Sensor and other popular brand names. The acquisition of Northern Computers strategically filled a large gap in the overall Ademco product line and significantly enhanced Pittway's commitment to build a World class integrated systems business.

In February 2000, Honeywell, a $24 billion diversified technology and manufacturing leader, successfully completed the acquisition of the Pittway Corporation. The acquisition, which was integrated into Honeywell's Home and Building Control business, combines Honeywell's expertise in systems integration and HAVC controls with Pittway's product and distribution strength in the rapidly growing $10 billion fire and security industries.

Today, Northern Computers continues to fill the needs of the Electronic Access Control market by offering a range of products and services that provide a full featured security solution serving any size facility, using the most comprehensive access control software and hardware available in the industry today.

Keri Systems

Keri is the only company that specializes in both access control systems and standalone readers which gives us unmatched expertise for the entire access control industry.

By designing cost-effective, easy to install and use products, Keri Systems has become one of the fastest growing card access control systems manufacturers in the world. The original founder of Indala Corporation (now Motorola/Indala), the early pioneers and market leaders in digital proximity readers and proximity cards, started Keri Systems in 1990. Located in the heart of California's famed Silicon Valley, the company draws on the area's wealth of technological expertise and security industry professionals to bring superior price/performance products to the card access control systems market. Keri products are available worldwide through a network of dealers and distributors, and Keri's core products all carry the CE Mark for approval in European Economic Community member countries.

In the early years, Keri Systems designed and sold stand-alone single door-only card access control systems. Keri now manufactures card access control systems for managing 1 to 256 doors at a single site and thousands of doors over multiple sites, specializing in proximity technology, but also with the ability to use any Wiegand™ card reader technology. A proximity reader-based system from Keri typically costs 50% less than proximity reader-based systems from other popular suppliers.

Keri's new PXL-500 Tiger Controller platform has made these cost savings possible. Loaded with high tech features like multiple RISC-based microprocessors, plug and play functionality, and on-board diagnostics, the Tiger system not only costs less from an equipment standpoint, it saves on the total installed cost of an access control system project because of the great installer features built in. Your system can be expanded one or two doors at a time as needed, and each controller maintains 100% fully distributed intelligence.

Keri's card reader expertise is proximity, now considered the technology of choice by end users everywhere. The MS Series Proximity Readers, for use exclusively on Keri Controllers, combine superior performance and low cost in small, sleek attractive packages. Keri offers three proximity card/tag styles, including the smallest and most durable key ring tag available. All Keri proximity products (except the Multi Technology cards) carry a lifetime warranty. For those customers who require something other than Keri proximity, the PXL-250 Tiger Controller also interfaces with Wiegand™ reader technologies.

The system is managed by the critically acclaimed Doors™ for use with Windows™ program, which is unparalleled in terms of ease of use and will continue to grow in functionality. Doors has all the sophistication you need, but is designed to be used by real people, not rocket scientists. A dedicated computer is not required, and in fact the PC does not need to be online for system operation.

Keri will continue its pursuit of technological and market leadership with the introduction of more exciting new access control system products and proximity readers as well as enhancements to existing products.
