What is ClearID?
2024-01-11Last updated
Genetec ClearID™ is a smarter way to manage physical access using a self-service solution for Synergis™. Using ClearID, you can take control of access and compliance by using a rule-based approach through a web-based interface.
- You can access the system from any standard browser. All data and files that are imported to the system are automatically encrypted.
- The ClearID system is also integrated with Active Directory. This integration means that organizations can use their existing Active Directory service to authenticate users and manage system access.

One identity
ClearID uses one single identity to synchronize the access information for multiple
independent sites managed using different instances of Synergis.To minimize the personal information replicated in each local access control
system, ClearID automatically creates the cardholder only when someone requests a site
visit for the first time.After access is granted to a new site, the system automatically synchronizes all
the permanent credentials linked to the Identity. If the corporation shares the same
card technology for different sites, the badge works without any manual interventions at
the new site.
When an identity is deactivated in ClearID, the cardholder is deactivated. The identity is automatically synchronized to all cardholders linked to all the different areas in all sites. The credentials remain active in Security Center, but access is automatically denied because the cardholder is inactive.
