SECURITY PRODUCT - ELECTRONIC KEY MANAGEMENT

Every physical key, under electronic control, with a full audit trail.

Holistion KMS locks every key into an intelligent cabinet and hands it over only to the right person, identified by PIN, RFID card or fingerprint. Every release and return is recorded automatically, so you always know who holds which key, for how long, and can prove it.

01 The product

A smart cabinet that only opens
for the right person.

Each key sits in its own locked, electronically controlled position. It is released per person and per key, and every movement is written to the log, with no paper and no gaps.

Controlled access

Three ways to prove who you are.

The cabinet stays locked until someone is positively identified. For high-security keys you can require two factors, so a key is never handed to the wrong person.

02 Why it matters

A key board and a logbook
can't tell you who has what.

Manual key control quietly fails in exactly the moments it matters, and the cost usually lands when a key is already gone.

The risk

Keys walk off

A single missing master key can force the re-keying of a whole building. Real money, real downtime, and real exposure until it is done.

The gap

No accountability

Paper logs are incomplete and easy to skip. When something goes wrong, nobody can say for certain who held the key, or when.

The blind spot

No live picture

You can't tell, right now, which keys are out and who has them, until someone needs one that isn't on the board.

03 Capabilities

Everything you need to run
keys like a controlled asset.

Holistion KMS covers the full lifecycle of a physical key, from the moment it is enrolled to every time it leaves and returns to the cabinet.

Access control

Only the right hands

Each person authenticates with PIN, card or fingerprint, and rights are set per key, so people can only take what their role allows.

  • PIN, RFID card and fingerprint
  • Two factors for critical keys
  • Rights per key, per person
  • Roles, groups and access windows
Real-time inventory

A live picture, always

A dashboard shows every key the moment its status changes, in the cabinet or out with a named holder. No walking the floor, no guessing.

  • In / out status per key
  • Named current holder
  • Illuminated key positions
  • Multi-cabinet overview
Audit trail

Proof, not guesswork

Every release and return is written to a tamper-evident log with user, key, time and duration, ready for audits, insurers or incident reviews.

  • Who, which key, when, how long
  • Tamper-evident and immutable
  • Searchable, filterable history
  • CSV and PDF export
Alerts & escalation

The system speaks up

Set a curfew per key and let the system chase overdue returns for you. Forced-open, tamper and denied-access events raise an alarm at once.

  • Overdue-key curfews and reminders
  • Forced-open and tamper alarms
  • Denied-access notifications
  • Email and on-screen alerts
Modular hardware

Sized to the site

Start with one cabinet and scale to many across rooms and locations. Each key sits in its own locked position and only leaves when access is granted.

  • 20 to hundreds of positions
  • Individually locked positions
  • Multiple cabinets and sites
  • One central administration
Sovereign deployment

On your infrastructure

Run it in the cloud or fully on-premise, behind your firewall. Connect it to the directory, badges and systems you already use.

  • Cloud or on-premise
  • Directory / LDAP / SSO
  • REST API and webhooks
  • Data stays with you
04 How it works

From enrollment to return,
in five simple steps.

The flow is designed to be fast for users and airtight for whoever is responsible for the keys.

01

Enroll

Set up keys, people and their rights once, in the web admin console.

02

Authenticate

At the cabinet, a user proves identity with PIN, card or fingerprint.

03

Release

Only the keys that person is authorized to take unlock and light up.

04

Track

The system logs who took which key, at what time, automatically.

05

Return & alert

On return the key is checked back in; overdue keys trigger escalation.

05 Where it fits

Built for places where a lost key
is a real problem.

Anywhere physical keys open something that matters, Holistion KMS turns key handling into an accountable process.

06 Questions

What security and facility teams
usually ask first.

Short answers to the questions that come up before a rollout.

Basics

What is an electronic key management system?

A smart cabinet that stores physical keys in individually locked positions and releases each one only to an authorized, identified user, logging every release and return.

Access

How does it stop the wrong person taking a key?

Users identify with a PIN, an RFID card or a fingerprint, and rights are set per key. People can only take the keys their role allows; critical keys can require two factors.

Integration

Does it work with our badges and accounts?

Yes. It reads standard RFID and proximity cards and integrates with directory services and single sign-on, so people use the credentials they already have.

Deployment

Can it run without the cloud?

Yes. Holistion KMS can be deployed fully on-premise, behind your own firewall, with all data and audit records kept under your control.

Accountability

What if a key isn't returned in time?

Set a curfew per key. Overdue keys trigger automatic reminders and escalation, and the current holder stays on record the entire time.

Scale

How many keys and cabinets can it manage?

Cabinets are modular, from around twenty positions to hundreds, and several cabinets across rooms or sites are administered together from one console.
