Bringing mobile access to existing enterprise infrastructure
Smart MasterKey has completed its integration with ICT Protégé, enabling organizations to introduce secure mobile access without replacing their existing access control infrastructure.
This integration allows enterprises already using ICT Protégé to extend their systems with smartphone-based access while continuing to rely on proven controllers, readers, and door hardware.
A modern access layer on top of existing systems
Many enterprises want to modernize access control but face high costs and operational risk when replacing hardware. Smart MasterKey addresses this challenge by acting as a mobile access layer on top of established access control platforms.
With the ICT Protégé integration, organizations can adopt mobile access incrementally — without disruptive infrastructure projects.
What the integration enables
The Smart MasterKey and ICT Protégé integration allows customers to:
- Issue secure mobile keys instead of physical cards or fobs
- Manage users and permissions centrally via the cloud
- Maintain existing access logic and security rules
- Reduce administrative effort related to card lifecycle management
- Support gradual migration from cards to mobile credentials
All access events continue to be handled by the underlying access control system, while Smart MasterKey enhances the user experience and management layer.
Designed for enterprise environments
The integration is built for organizations with:
- Multiple buildings and access zones
- Large and frequently changing user populations
- Strict security and compliance requirements
- Long-term access infrastructure investments
Smart MasterKey complements existing systems rather than replacing them.
Why this matters
Enterprise customers expect innovation without risk. By integrating with widely used access control platforms like ICT Protégé, Smart MasterKey enables organizations to modernize access on their own terms — reducing friction, cost, and operational complexity.
Mobile access becomes an enhancement, not a replacement.
Looking ahead
The ICT Protégé integration is an important step in Smart MasterKey’s growing ecosystem of access control partners. Additional integrations and extended access scenarios will continue to expand how organizations manage access across their buildings.
Smart MasterKey brings mobile access where enterprises already are.
