Platform Capabilities
User & Identity Management
Manage the lifecycle of every person in your building with granular detail.
- Cardholders: Add, edit, and manage credentials with ease. Control activation/expiration dates, upload photos, and manage complex profile fields.
- Access Groups: Organize doors, schedules, and crisis modes by cluster. Activate or deactivate group permissions instantly to respond to changing site conditions.
Governance and Operational Security
Maintain a strict "least privilege" environment with advanced administrative tools.
- Operators and Roles: Assign role-based permissions with automatic visibility filtering. Ensure security protocols are met with enforced password-complexity policies.
- Time Schedules and Day Types: Create custom day and time structures to automate building operations with precision, including holiday and special event overrides.

Unlike standard cloud platforms, Polaris offers deep-level hardware management usually reserved for on-premise systems.
- Access Portals (Doors): Fine-tune door configurations, monitor live events, acknowledge alarms, and set custom alert notifications.
- Panels & Boards: View hardware health at a glance. Manage sync status, perform CPU resets, initiate flash updates, and run diagnostics for every controller in your network.
- Direct Hardware Commands: Execute critical maintenance remotely, including warm/cold resets, credential clearing, and flash loading.
Intelligence and Auditing
Transform raw data into actionable security insights.
- Live Event Monitoring: Watch system activity in real-time with a high-fidelity event stream.
