Traka Showcases Its Latest Standalone Touch Screen Key Management System At ISC West 2013

Traka Touch 3-4 closed newLAS VEGAS, Nevada, April 10, 2013 — Traka, an ASSA ABLOY Group company, is showcasing its Traka Touch, the intelligent touch screen key management system, at ISC West 2013.

Traka Touch is a standalone key management solution that operates independently of a company’s IT system via an embedded Windows software and SQL Server database. No server is required to maintain its database. The system is managed via the full color 7-inch multi-language touch screen on the front panel, from the initial administrative setup of users and keys to the management of day-to-day user access.

As with conventional Traka systems the Touch gives the administrator control over the access levels for each particular user. To gain access to keys, users must identify themselves using either a PIN code, swipe card or biometric recognition. LEDs indicate which keys a user can and can’t take when they access the cabinet.

The Traka Touch provides a real time audit of all key transactions and the unit’s solid state memory can store up to 250,000 events. Administrators can view a report of all key usage and search for a key that is “out of system” via the touch screen.

“The new Traka Touch is a secure, cost-effective means of ensuring that only authorized individuals have access to keys, while making them readily available to authorized users 24/7. It is not always feasible for organisations to allow access to IT infrastructures and networks and Traka Touch addresses this” said Danny Garrido, General Manager, Traka US.

About Traka

Launched in 1994, Traka provides intelligent access management systems, allowing organisations to control, monitor and record the use of physical assets including premises, facilities, equipment, machinery and vehicles.

Traka is an ASSA ABLOY Group company and works with organisations in over 30 countries. Its customer base covers a range of sectors including defence, education, hospitality, travel, healthcare and warehouse and logistics.

Alongside its UK presence, Traka also operates from a US HQ and has an extensive network of overseas distributors providing sales, consultancy, installation and support services for its growing international customer base.
