ACCESS CONTROL WINNER
(TIE)
Axis Secures Access to Private Information
DS Graphics | Universal Wilde (DSG | UW) is a full-service communications
company that produces and distributes printed
and electronic information for corporations and government
entities. Most of the projects done in its Canton, Mass., facility
involve documents containing personal identifi able information,
protected health information, or other content that
requires tightly controlled dissemination.
When DS Graphics | Universal Wilde moved its Westwood
and Rockland, Mass., plants into a single facility in Canton,
it needed to install a comprehensive security solution that
could protect the new 307,000-square-foot building. It was
looking for full camera coverage of critical areas, as well as a
door control system that could maintain a detailed user log.
Because they would be printing documents containing highly
sensitive content, these components were necessary to comply
with audits required by its customers.
DSG |UW turned to integrated solutions provider Cross
Camera Controls (CCC) and its partners to help achieve its
goal. CCC assembled an integrated surveillance and access
control solution consisting of AXIS Camera Station video management
system, more than two dozen panoramic and fi xed
dome cameras, network video intercoms, door controllers with
RFID readers coupled with AXIS Camera Station Secure Entry
for employee badge verifi cation and horn speakers for alerts.
This fully integrated security solution allows DSG | UW security

restrict entrance to authorized personnel, screen visitors, and
receive alerts on specifi c events. It also stores a full year or
more of user logs for SOC-compliance audits.
Door sensors not only help with access control measures, but
also allow the company to protect sensitive paper stock from
environmental damage by quickly alerting on doors left ajar in
climate-controlled areas of the building. AXIS Camera Station
Secure Entry allows users to manage up to 70,000 credentials
and can store logs for a year or longer if needed.
ProdataKey Protects, Unifi es High School Campus
Colorado's Vail Christian High School (VCHS) was built in 2006
with brass keys to lock all doors. Over time, many keys were no
longer accounted for, causing a security concern. The school
planned to rekey all the doors but discovered that an electronic
system would cost just about the same amount and off er a lot

occurred in town, located only two miles away, and the perpetrator
fl ed in their direction. VCHS required a faster method to
get the school into lockdown mode and eliminate the need to
run around checking doors to make sure they weren't propped
open. The school planned to issue access cards to students,
staff and tenants but also wanted an easy way to issue temporary
credentials to service providers or authorized visitors who
required access for a limited timeframe.
A nonnegotiable requirement was that the access control
system supports full management functions from a mobile
device. Tom Kapala, certifi ed registered locksmith and founder
of Mountain Top Lock, says, " Not being able to program the system,
make updates, or initiate a facility lockdown from a phone
would have been a deal-breaker for the school. "
Furthermore, the school sought to speed up and improve its
emergency response.
Eventually, ProdataKey (PDK) was chosen as the solution.
