Electronic padlocks are proving popular

Electronic padlocks are becoming more popular as a method for removing traditional keys and improving user accountability. Increased use has occurred across industry sectors including road transport, freight depots and large critical infrastructure sites such as power plants.

Electronic padlocks are a versatile locking solution that can be fully integrated within virtual network platforms.  Some systems can handle up to four million users and record an audit trail of the last 1,000 events at the lock.

The major benefit according to many Security Managers and CFOs is that access information encrypted on the cards can be instantly deleted from the system without re-keying or changing locks.
