Job Description

Background 

An access control system is about who gets access to what and when. It typically consists of doors with different access requirements. For instance, during the day a user might only need to present a card but during the night both card and pin is necessary to enter an area. 

However users have access pattern, they arrive at roughly the same time during the morning and leave during the same time in the afternoon accessing the same doors in the same sequence. Could these access pattern be identified and lower the security requirements in the system or could an operator be notified when someone access something outside their typical pattern 

 

Goal of thesis
