The right people should have the right access—without giving everyone everything.
Modern systems can support owners, families, board members, property managers, employees, guards, vendors, monitoring operators, and service professionals. Clear roles keep administration practical and sensitive functions controlled.
How you’ll control your system
One clear operating plan—even when the property uses more than one platform.
Three Factor Security works across established camera, alarm, access, intercom, identity, network, storage, and monitoring platforms. Exact functions vary by selected equipment, licensing, subscriptions, connectivity, and project scope.
01
Mobile & desktop access
Use supported apps or browser interfaces to reach approved sites and functions without relying on one shared workstation.
02
Live & recorded video
View approved cameras, search recorded events, review timelines, and confirm recording health where the platform supports it.
03
Individual user accounts
Give owners, board members, employees, residents, guards, and vendors their own accounts instead of sharing credentials.
04
Role-based permissions
Limit each user by property, camera, door, alarm, schedule, export right, or administrative responsibility.
05
Door & gate control
Manage supported credentials, schedules, visitor entry, remote release, and access history from authorized interfaces.
06
Alarm management
Use supported controls for arming, disarming, notifications, zones, user codes, and event review according to assigned responsibility.
07
Video export & documentation
Preserve approved clips, event details, and operational records with a process for sensitive evidence and external sharing.
08
System-health notifications
Receive available alerts for device, recording, storage, network, battery, or communication issues before they become long-term gaps.
Available controls are confirmed during system design and handoff. The customer receives the applications, accounts, permissions, documentation, and training included in the approved scope.
Permission lifecycle
Plan access, train users, and remove it when responsibilities change.
Available roles and audit features vary by platform. Final permissions are configured around supported capabilities and customer-approved responsibilities.
01
Identify administrators
Name the people responsible for the system, account recovery, user approval, platform billing, settings, service authorization, and incident exports.
02
Define roles
Separate full administration from daily viewing, arming, unlocking, credential use, report review, exports, and maintenance access.
03
Limit by site & function
Give each person only the locations, cameras, doors, alarms, schedules, and actions required for their responsibility.
04
Train authorized users
Review daily operation, secure accounts, notifications, playback, exports, alarm handling, visitor access, escalation, and service intake.
05
Review & remove
Audit users and shared access after staffing, board, tenant, vendor, property-management, ownership, or monitoring changes.
Example permission matrix
A practical starting point for homes, boards, and operating teams.
Use the matrix to define the principle of access. Exact permissions depend on the selected camera, alarm, access, intercom, identity, monitoring, and multi-site platforms.
