CyberLock^™
MONDO CONDO is a CyberLock dealer. We offer sales, support, and a demonstration facility. CyberLocks are perfect for community associations as well as government facilities, school sites, commercial and retail buildings and rental properties. A CyberLock is a computer lock that opens only when activated by an authorized computer key (a CyberKey). Each CyberLock cylinder is an electronic replacement of a standard mechanical lock cylinder. Installing the cylinder into the lock hardware is as simple as removing the existing mechanical cylinder and replacing it with the CyberLock cylinder. This electronic lock installs without wiring of any kind … no power wiring … no data wiring. The power required to open a lock comes from the battery in the CyberKey. Each key and each lock has a unique signature that is traceable. Both the keys and the locks retain a history of the activity of each. The keys may be programmed to automatically expire at any time interval (recommended). Keys may be reauthorized at a CyberKey Authorizer or by infrared communications with a laptop computer or cell phone or PDA from a secure CyberAudit website. The activity of all keys and locks is uploaded to the CyberAudit server database when the key is reauthorized.
				CyberLocks have electrical terminals instead of a keyway … so the locks cannot be picked. Dirt, moisture, glue and toothpicks will not interfere with the operation of the cylinder. Even “zapping” the terminals with high voltage will not affect the lock.
CyberLock replacement cylinders are available for standard Schlage 6-pin and Yale 6- or 7-pin format cylinders.
						The resulting lock sets appear normal to the casual viewer and operate normally using an authorized CyberKey.
There are also CyberLocks for commercial doors using mortise or rim cylinders. These cylinders are available with the following finishes: bright chrome, brushed chrome, bright brass and dark bronze.
			Each CyberKey contains secure coded authorizations for the particular locks authorized for the key. Authorizations can be fine-tuned for certain days and times and beginning times and end times. Keys can be made more secure by having their authorizations expire periodically (recommended). Keys cannot be duplicated. Passwords in the software and hardware are unique to each installation.
CyberKeys contain a lithium battery that powers the locks. The keys also contain an infrared communicator that can communicate with a laptop or cell phone for reauthorization over the internet. While the key is somewhat bulky compared to traditional keys, remember it contains the lithium battery to power the locks and the memory of all access privileges and the history of all of the locks it has accessed since the last reauthorization. And more importantly, one CyberKey key replaces many traditional keys.
CyberLocks are not just for doors. They are available for special applications and lock varieties: padlocks, safes, cabinet locks, cam locks, cash drawers, European style locks, elevator switch locks, medical drug cabinets, laundry coin boxes, computer rack mounted server cabinets, vending machines, etc. An individual CyberKey may be programmed to open any or all of the locks at varied times and dates uniquely established for each facility. An audit trail is recorded in both the keys and locks and uploaded to a database during each key’s reauthorization. The same key that opens your office may also open the padlock on your gate and the doors to your home.
		A CyberKey Authorizer is a network hub with a hardened keyport terminal that is connected to a computer server by LAN or the web. When a CyberKey is inserted into the Authorizer, the authorizations for that individual key are downloaded into the key. In addition, the time/date history of the key and all the locks it has touched are uploaded to the server. The Authorizers may be made more secure by the use of a PIN number. If the connection to the web is broken, the Authorizer can call the server by phone via a built-in modem. Since the keys are recommended to be set to expire periodically, the keys must be presented to a CyberKey Authorizer or to a laptop computer or cell phone to be reauthorized. In that case, if a key is lost or stolen it will automatically disable itself. If it is reported lost or stolen or in possession of a person no longer authorized, the key can be removed from the server database. Then, even if the key is presented to the Authorizer with a correct PIN, it will forever remain useless until it is recovered.
Here are some of the features that make CyberLocks the ideal facilities solution:
	No data wiring to the locks.
	No power wiring to the locks (power is supplied by the lithium battery in the keys).
	No need for expensive electric door strikes.
	The tremendous monetary savings due to no need for cabling to door locks.
	There is no keyway so the locks may not be picked.
	Rekeying is done via software. No need to repin locks or reissue keys.
	There is no keyway so the locks may not be vandalized with glue or toothpicks.
	The big wad of keys carried by property managers may be replaced by a single CyberKey.
	Your home and office may use the same key.
	Single night access to a Guest Suite may be granted remotely to a CyberKey.
	The ability to fine-tune each key to particular locks only.
	The ability to fine-tune each key to particular dates and times and periods for each lock.
	The ability to have each key automatically disable itself periodically (unlimited).
	The ability to lock out keys even if they haven’t automatically expired (somewhat limited).
	The ability to remotely prevent reauthorization of particular keys if they are lost or stolen.
	The ability to require more than one key to open a lock (for highly secure locations).
	The ability to require a time delay (for cash drawers or safes) before a lock will open.
	The ability to view what keys were used on which locks at what times.
	The ability to view when a key attempted to unlock an unauthorized location.
	Attempting to open an unauthorized lock causes the key to wail like a wounded mongoose.
	Crime locations will reveal the last CyberKey used and the date/time used.
	Give a key to a neighbor while you’re on vacation, then see if they accessed your home.
	Security proven by use in government and military and nuclear facilities.
	Did I mention the tremendous savings due to no need for cabling to door locks?
	If an entire facility is equipped with CyberLocks, the directors and officers of the association and the managers may have access to all locks and doors, while the owners and residents have access to only the public areas and their individual units … all using the same single CyberKey. As directors and officers and managers change, there is no need to rekey, repin, or recall keys. All of the changes are handled in the software.
	Delinquent users may be locked out of tennis courts, gyms, spas while still being allowed access to front entrance and parking … all remotely … and restored remotely.
