PACS controls the door. unixpass governs the decision behind it.
Access control hardware executes. Monitoring platforms react. PIAM decides who gets access, when, why and under which compliance conditions — and creates the audit trail to prove it.
Hardware executes
Readers, doors, gates, turnstiles and biometric terminals carry out the access decision technically — but they don't decide it.
Automation reacts
Monitoring platforms assess states, trigger alerts and manage operational responses — but they don't govern identities.
unixpass decides
Who gets access, when, why, where and under which governance conditions — orchestrated centrally with full lifecycle control and audit.

The four pillars
Identity. Governance. Access. Sovereignty.
One identity model
Employees, visitors, contractors, suppliers, service providers, drivers and temporary staff — all managed in a single, consistent identity model across every site and system.
unixID • Org structure • Lifecycle • Attributes
Rules that enforce themselves
Roles, approvals, qualifications, documents, inductions and compliance rules determine who gets access — automatically enforced, with full audit trail for every decision.
Approval flows • Compliance • Audit • Reporting
Every credential, every door
QR, NFC, mobile credentials, cards, biometrics — across doors, gates, turnstiles, racks and vehicle access points. unixpass orchestrates the decision; the hardware executes it.
Multi-site • Any hardware • Real-time • Offline-capable
Your infrastructure, your rules
Cloud, hybrid or on-premises. Open APIs. Your existing hardware and identity sources. Vendor-independent by architecture — no lock-in to a single security ecosystem.

Identity domains
One platform. Every physical identity.
unixpass manages every identity type from a single governance layer — each domain with its own registration flows, rules and credentials.
Workforce Identity
Employees, permanent staff and shifts — roles, site authorisations and access rights across every location.
Visitor Identity
Pre-registration, check-in, host approval, badge printing and departure — fully digital, fully auditable.
Contractor Identity
Work permits, qualifications, site inductions and time-limited access windows — managed before anyone arrives on site.
Service provider Identity
Recurring service partners with managed credential lifecycles, company-level onboarding and automatic expiry.
Vehicle Identity
Licence plate recognition, gate access, delivery slot management and vehicle-linked access rules.
Event Identity
Ticket-based access, capacity control, real-time headcount and emergency evacuation lists — at any scale.
Governance capabilities
The full identity lifecycle — in one system.
From first registration to final revocation, every step is governed, traceable and auditable.

Governance capabilities
Built for complete control
Role management
Define roles, responsibilities and access rights — per person, site and time window.
Approval workflows
Multi-level approval chains, delegation and automatic escalation for every access request.
Qualifications & training
Track certifications, inductions and expiry dates — access blocked automatically when qualifications lapse.
Document management
Collect, validate and archive compliance documents — linked directly to the identity and its access rights.
Compliance reporting
Scheduled and on-demand reports for audits, certifications and regulatory requirements.
Full audit trail
Every decision, approval, credential issue and access event — logged, searchable and tamper-evident.
Lifecycle automation
Onboarding, changes and offboarding triggered automatically from HR or identity source events.
Multi-site control
Manage permissions and policies independently per site — with a unified view across all locations.
Ecosystem
Built to integrate, not to replace.
unixpass makes identities governable. · KentixONE makes buildings intelligent. · Hardware makes access secure.
