Unauthorized Zone Access

Unauthorized Zone Access Detection

Protect server rooms, hazardous areas, and restricted zones with virtual boundaries and instant behavioral alerts.

The Problem

<1%
Of restricted zones have active monitoring

Fences and signs don't stop determined intruders

Restricted zones — server rooms, chemical storage, machinery areas — are typically protected by signage and locks alone. Once someone is inside the facility, physical barriers rarely prevent access to critical zones.

How Argos Detects It

1

Virtual Boundaries

Restricted zones are defined per camera with schedules: always-restricted, after-hours-only, or authorized-list based on entry point.

2

Entry Classification

The AI detects zone entries instantly and classifies context — direction, speed, dwell time, and whether machinery is active nearby.

3

Machinery Integration

For hazardous zones, alerts can trigger physical responses: machinery slowdown, gate locks, or audible warnings via existing PLCs.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can zones be active only at certain times?

Yes. Every zone has a schedule: a production floor can be open during shifts and restricted at night, while a server room stays restricted around the clock. Schedules and zone shapes update without touching the cameras.

Can Argos stop machinery when someone enters a danger zone?

Yes. Through integrations with PLCs and safety systems, a zone breach can trigger machinery slowdown or stop, gate locking, or sirens — turning detection into active accident prevention.

How is this different from door access control?

Access control secures doors; zone detection secures spaces. It catches people who entered legitimately but moved into areas they shouldn't — the gap that badge systems structurally cannot cover.
