Real-time occupancy monitoring, gate access logging, and emergency operations interface
This interface governs how security personnel monitor active visitors, enforce access restrictions, log gate events, initiate emergency rollcalls, and document security incidents.
Components of the Security Desk interface
Live Occupancy Board
Real-time count of all visitors currently checked in, segmented by visitor type and floor/zone.
Gate Access Log
Chronological log of all gate check-in, check-out, and access-denied events with timestamps.
Blacklist Management
Add, remove, and review blacklisted individuals — flagged on check-in attempt across all entry points.
Emergency Rollcall
One-click mustering list of all active visitors with real-time accounted-for status tracking.
Incident Log
Structured incident reports with severity classification, photo attachment, and resolution tracking.
Manual Gate Override
Security staff can manually admit or deny a visitor at any gate point, logged with officer identity.

Detail view of Security Desk interfaces
Live Occupancy Board
Displays a real-time occupancy count refreshed via WebSocket. Breakdown by visitor type (walk-in, contractor, VIP) and by physical zone or floor if location zones are configured. Threshold alerts trigger when a zone exceeds its configured capacity.
Zone configuration
Gate Access Log
Chronological event stream showing every gate interaction: badge scan, QR code read, manual override, or access denial. Each row is searchable by visitor name, badge ID, gate point, or officer name.
Gate log export
Emergency Rollcall
Activated from the Security Desk in one click. Generates an instant mustering list showing every visitor currently checked in at the location. Security staff tap each visitor row to mark them as accounted for — the list updates live across all connected devices.
Emergency rollcall setupBlacklist Management
Admins and Security Officers can add individuals to the blacklist with a name, optional document ID, photo, and reason. On any future check-in attempt, the system cross-references this list and pauses the flow, alerting the Security Desk immediately.
Blacklist configurationIncident Log
Security staff create structured incident reports with: incident type, severity (Low / Medium / High / Critical), affected zone, description, photo evidence, and resolution status. Open incidents appear at the top of the Security Desk home view.
Incident reporting docsManual Gate Override
Allows a security officer to manually admit or deny a visitor at any configured gate point. The override is logged with the officer's identity, timestamp, reason, and visitor record — visible in the gate log and compliance audit trail.

Setting up the Security Desk
- 1
Assign Security Officer and Supervisor roles
In the IT Admin Console, assign the Security Officer role to all front-line security staff. If a supervisor tier is required, create a custom role with blacklist-removal and full rollcall permissions. Assign it to shift supervisors.
- 2
Configure location zones (optional)
If your facility has multiple zones or floors, define them under Settings → Locations → Zones. Assign each entry gate to a zone. The occupancy board will then show a per-zone breakdown rather than a single total.
- 3
Set occupancy capacity thresholds
For each zone, configure a maximum capacity value. When occupancy reaches or exceeds the threshold, a visual alert appears on the occupancy board and an optional notification fires to the Security Desk.
- 4
Configure blacklist match notifications
In Custom Workflows → Triggers, set up the 'Blacklist Match' event. Assign the notification to go to the Security Desk queue and optionally to a security supervisor's mobile number via SMS.
- 5
Test the emergency rollcall flow
Use Fire Drill Mode to run a full rollcall test without creating a compliance event. Confirm that the mustering list appears on all connected Security Desk devices within 10 seconds of activation. Verify that 'accounted for' status syncs in real-time.
