Three campuses, University of Virginia, George Mason University, and Rockhurst University, unveiled upgraded access control and mobile credential solutions powered by Acre Security and Atrium. Nearly 70,000 students now use a single credential, whether it is a card, mobile device, or biometric, for secure entry to residence halls, classrooms, libraries, gyms, retail locations, integrated privilege controls, and seamless campus payments.
At UVA and George Mason, Atrium mobile credentials are helping campus leaders reimagine safety and the student experience. Administrators have real-time visibility for faster threat detection, campus lockdowns, and automated digital mustering during evacuations and shelter-in-place situations.
Each campus solution is tailored to existing infrastructure. UVA chose Atrium’s first Allegion mobile credential implementation and supports both Apple and Google Wallet while retaining encryption keys. George Mason continues to use HID mobile credentials and readers with Assa Abloy and dormakaba locks. Both campuses benefit from advanced biometric authentication including iris and facial recognition, reflecting Atrium’s one size fits one philosophy.
These deployments expand the growing list of joint Atrium Acre clients and show how mobile credentials and intelligent access systems help support student satisfaction and safety nationwide.
