Advancis has been successfully active on the market as an independent software house for more than 30 years. Today they are one of the international market leaders in the field of vendor-neutral security and building management. Their solutions AIM and WinGuard are used wherever maximum security is indispensable, e.g. in industry, finance and administration, data centers, transport and traffic, logistics, healthcare or in the operation of critical infrastructures.
WinGuard is an Open Integration Platform that unifies various security, building, and communication systems into a single interface. Currently, more than 550 adapter drivers are available. WinGuard collects and visualizes incidents from multiple sources, helping users quickly assess and respond to situations. With dynamic workflows, SOPs, and automated actions, WinGuard streamlines operations in control centers.
The WinGuard adapter facilitates the integration of the Gallagher Command Centre access control system via a secure TLS-encrypted REST API connection. It enables real-time state synchronization and control of key access control components - such as access zones, alarm zones, doors, and inputs/outputs - allowing for both monitoring and control. Customizable through a configuration file, the adapter supports automated data exchange and hot-standby.
