About Us

Access Smart, LLC

The problem with passwords is not their complexity, length or change frequency. The problem is that we put the weakest link in the security chain in charge of them – the employee.

Organizations don’t have a password problem, they have a password management problem… UNTIL NOW!

Company Background

Access Smart

Access Smart, LLC was founded in 2005 by Dovell Bonnett, who understood early in his career the connection between password security, cyber access security and user’s convenience. In 2000, he created the first combined physical and logical, multi-access ID badge for Microsoft. Dovell also combined other applications with the ID badge (i.e. vehicle ignition, payment, and patient records) allowing employee badges to do so much more than “make a door go beep.”

We were in the news recently as they announced their product, Power LogOn, now supports Microsoft Azure. (Click Here for the full press release.)

What do we do?

You know how employees get frustrated with their passwords and do stupid stuff to remember them, which opens the door to hackers?

We solve that!

We are passionate about securing passwords with technology! Passwords are not secured by silly tactics used to generate and remember them. Passwords are secured by using the same methods that secure encryption keys. Access Smart’s Power LogOn® uses the technologies and best practices that secure keys to now secure passwords, at a fraction of the time, cost and management of certificate based systems.

Power LogOn allows companies to use their existing employee ID badges to logon to computers, networks, clouds, applications, websites, etc. without having to remember or type passwords.

The first line of defense is authenticating who’s knocking on your network’s “front door”. That’s why data security begins with cyber access control, and cyber access control begins with Power LogOn.

Our Brand

If you look closely at the Access Smart logo you will notice that the word “Smart” is written in superscript. This emphasizes our belief in raising access to the power of “Smart.”

Our customers have embraced our firm belief that access to information, services, property, and everywhere else must be secure, convenient, and affordable. Access Smart has made them all mutually inclusive

Our Consulting Approach

When it comes to computers and security, there is one element common to every network. And that is … there is no one common element. Every company, agency and institution is different based on their needs, decisions, and investments. Because of this, Access Smart asks questions and listens to our customers before we make recommendations. If the wrong technology solution is implemented, no matter how great a technology sounds on paper, it will be perceived as a failure.

Access Smart takes the time to learn what the company wants to achieve and why, what the available budgets is, as well as any previous security investments to see how we can build on whatever is already in place. For example, we designed our Power Logon® enterprise password management solution to work with many existing card technologies. In most cases, there is no need to re-call, re-set, or re-issue badges. This is a huge cost saving to the customer, and a convenience to their employees.

During our conversations, we may discover other security or policies concerns. If we don’t offer those products and services, we may have partners who do and will gladly make any introductions for you. Cyber security is comprised of many different layers. The key is to have all those layers work together to ensure security, convenience and low cost of ownership.

Our Vision

The computer industry is going through great changes. With Connect Anywhere, Cloud Computing and the Internet of Things (IoT) becoming more pervasive, there is an even greater need for trusted identity and authenticated access. It is Access Smart’s vision that the smartcard gives both the convenience and high security features needed by employees and IT to secure these networks.

We see the smartcard as the next migration of the computer. Put all the processing power inside terminals and kiosks, then, use the smartcard as the authentication token to access both the physical and virtual worlds. This creates a one card solution to access buildings, the internet, payment, health records, subscription services, store loyalty points, government benefits, and the list goes on and on. Access Smart removes the burden of managing your digital access identity. Raise access to the power of smart with … Power Logon® – Multi-factor, enterprise password manager
