Access Management

Digital Access Control. Designed for the correctional system.

PYPROTECT® is STUV's RFID access control system, developed specifically for correctional facilities.

PYPROTECT® is STUV’s RFID access control system, developed specifically for correctional facilities. The software combines high security, digital control, and maximum availability in a single platform—for the secure management of staff, occupants, doors, gates, and access rights.

Online, offline, or hybrid. Always under control.

- Specifically designed for correctional and forensic institutions

- Management of staff, occupant, and access rights

- Audit-proof documentation of all events

- Integration with building management systems and third-party systems

The Right Technology in the Right Place

In the modern correctional system, there is no one-size-fits-all solution for all doors.

Various technical hubs are available, particularly for detention cell doors: these range from mechanical high-security locks to mechatronic locking systems. In other areas, passage doors, security checkpoints, gates, and administrative buildings benefit from the advantages of digital access control.

PYPROTECT combines the best of both worlds.

The platform enables centralized management of access rights, documents security-related events, and provides the necessary flexibility for day-to-day operations—from individual doors to complex facility structures.

The result is a comprehensive security concept that combines proven mechanical systems with intelligent digital technology.

Designed to meet the specific requirements of the correctional system

While many access control systems were originally developed for office or commercial properties, PYPROTECT® was specifically designed to meet the security requirements of correctional facilities.

Enforcement-Specific Functions

Maximum Availability

Even if the server connection is lost, access permissions remain available locally. Door controllers continue to operate autonomously.

Greater reliability

PYPROTECT can be operated as an independent fallback layer within the security infrastructure and remains operational even if higher-level building management systems fail.

Server-Based Access Management for High-Security Correctional Facilities

PYPROTECT® is a modular access management system for correctional and forensic institutions. The solution combines RFID technology with a centralized server architecture and enables the secure control and management of all access points—from individual cell doors to the entire facility.

Communication takes place via a robust RS485 fieldbus and a scalable TCP/IP network architecture for central systems and operator stations.

CORE ARCHITECTURE

Centralized server architecture with clear system separation

PYPROTECT® is based on a modern, server-centric architecture. All logic, rights management, and event processing take place centrally on the system server.

The communication is clearly structured:

RS485:<span class=""> Field communication with locks, RFID readers, and door components
</span>TCP/IP: Network for servers, user PCs, and building management systems

This separation ensures a high degree of stability, scalability, and integrability.

Advantages of the Architecture

  • Centralized management of all access rights and events
  • Reliable RS485 communication for safety-critical peripherals
  • Scalable TCP/IP Network for Control Rooms and Integration
  • Clear system architecture for operation, maintenance, and expansion
  • Suitable for single-site and multi-site operations
