An Automated Garage Door and Security Management System (A dual control system with VPN IoT & Biometric Database)

Abstract

Internet of Things (IoT) have revolutionized the entire way in which the industry operates. The authenticity and entry access to certain places of the industry plays a crucial role in maintaining the secrecy of the operations. Therefore providing limited access to such confidential places proves to be seemingly vital. The proposed work provides a dual security mechanism against unauthorized entry and hence enhances the integrity of the system. This system thus eradicates the common security threats such as Spoofing, Repudiation and trafficking from evaders especially in the current scenario of industry 4.0. This system uses two techniques for the controlled access. One via a fingerprint access that utilizes the raspberry pi3 and a biometric database system for control. This method is a thorough hardware based solution and could be utilized when there is a physical presence of a person. In case if the authenticator is not available in the arena, the alternate mechanism would be followed to provide a secured access authenticity through Virtual Point Network (VPN) & IoT. The utility of VPN facilitates the personnel to prove his / her credentials from any remote location. Thus this dual mode system provides a highly credential entry / exit system in an industrial arena.
