Sentinel SiteGuard overview
Company sites & access
Sentinel SiteGuard integrations
Connections belong to this product’s deployment. Each source, device and external service needs the appropriate permission and commissioning.
Architecture and information flow
| Component | Purpose |
|---|---|
| Browser and front desk | Monitoring, visitors and current-assignment management. |
| Application service | Card, booking, area, clearance, point and floor decisions. |
| Database and evidence | MongoDB and protected configured evidence storage. |
| Controller gateway | Single-use decisions and an administrator-mapped vendor driver. |
Integration requirements
| Connection | Setup | Validation / limitation |
|---|---|---|
| Camera feeds | Supported configured camera source or ingestion connection. | Validate image quality, source identity and monitoring rules. |
| Signed QR / NFC | Installation-issued signed text and a compatible reader. | A bare UID or generic card serial is not an authenticated application credential. |
| Door controllers | Manufacturer API, SDK or supported gateway behind the adapter. | No universal driver or vendor certification is claimed. |
| Lift floor controllers | Commissioned floor-output/command integration with explicit destination mapping. | Preserve emergency egress and certified safety functions. |
| REST integration | Scoped X-API-Key, HTTPS and the OpenAPI contract. | Successful decisions expire in five seconds and require one consumption by the same key. |
Commissioning and acceptance
- Area permission alone does not permit door or lift access.
- A door also requires its enabled floor.
- A lift rejects ungranted or unserved floors.
- Expired, revoked, returned and reassigned badges cannot reuse old permissions.
- Wrong-key, stale and repeated decision consumption fails.
- The controller does not operate after a denied or ambiguous response.
- ID-card QR and NFC produce the same current-assignment outcome.
