FAQ - simple online attendance Aktion

Aktion CLOUD is a state-of-the-art online attendance and access control system. All data and the program itself run on super powerful and secure servers from Microsoft - in the cloud.

This means you don't have to worry about any servers, installation or maintenance. Everything is already set up and you just connect via the internet wherever you are. So all you need is an internet connection and you can start using the system.

Even if the internet goes down, the Aktion CLOUD system still works. The sensors record attendance and accesses as usual, but the data is temporarily stored in their own memory. Each sensor can hold up to 130,000 records. Once the internet is restored, all data is automatically sent to the cloud.

But beware - during an internet outage but you can't access online features like the web interface, tablet or mobile apps.

The entire system can be easily backed up using a standard UPS. In the event of a power failure, all devices of the attendance and access control system are backed up within one circuit (sensors, locks, switches, etc.).

No, there is no need to install any software. You can access your account online using a standard web browser from any computer or mobile device with an internet connection.

All employee data is stored in the Microsoft Azure cloud provider's database and is regularly backed up and archived. This cloud platform meets high European standards for data protection and privacy security.

Data is protected by modern global encryption protocols. The connection is encrypted using the AES 256 bit standard with a message authentication algorithm and key exchange mechanism. It would take a supercomputer 1.8 billion years to decrypt the 256 bit algorithm. Your data in the cloud is completely secure.

No, just an internet connection is sufficient.
