Quality products and secure access management

The CUMULUS product range offers keyless access management solutions, such as mobile keys, padlocks, key deposits, swing handles and controllers. The products can be used with various software solutions. For example, our cloud-based access management platform ASSA ABLOY Access is designed to manage your digital, electromechanical and mechanical locking solutions.

Application programming interfaces (APIs) enable integration with third-party systems. The mobile software development kit allows organisations to add CUMULUS functionalities to their own mobile apps.

CUMULUS Key Deposit

The CUMULUS Key Deposit enables keyless access to property maintenance keys with a smartphone via a Bluetooth Low Energy connection. The Key Deposit is designed to perform in harsh conditions with its IP66/68 and IK10 certifications. With the key deposit, property managers can conveniently grant different user groups access to properties via the users’ mobile phones, without the need for unnecessary key logistics or changes to the traditional locking solution.

CUMULUS Swing Handle

The CUMULUS Swing Handle is ideal for outdoor cabinets used by telecom, energy and data centre companies, as well as utilities. The handle enables keyless opening, using only a mobile phone. With a robust structure, the handle is waterproof and designed for harsh conditions. The product has IP66 and IK10 ratings and has passed DIN EN 1630 RC2 burglary resistance tests.

The Swing Handle is battery-powered and has a real-time clock. Its use is recorded as an audit trail in the event log, which can be used to trace anomalies, for example. If the battery is depleted, the handle can be operated with a backup power source.

The product can be ordered with a built-in mechanical backup. This allows the handle to be opened with a mechanical key, if necessary. Thanks to its batteries, the handle records audit trails even when it is used with a key, maintaining situational awareness.

CUMULUS padlock

The CUMULUS keyless smart padlock is equipped with a Bluetooth® Low Energy connection. The robust Super Weather Proof lock is designed to perform in harsh conditions. The padlock is available in two versions: with a fixed shackle (EN16864 security grade 4), as well as with a removable shackle (EN16864 security grade 4). Both versions offer IP68 protection.

The padlock is battery-powered with a real-time clock and Bluetooth® connectivity, always logging its status. The padlock audit trails are transferred to the backend service via the mobile application. The lock can also be supplied with backup power if the battery is flat.

CUMULUS controller

The CUMULUS controller is an ideal solution when you want to enable keyless access. With the controller, you can make any electric lock or other electronic door locking device work with a mobile app. It not only works with ABLOY products but also with hardware of any brand with compatible wiring.

The controller tracks usage and records opening and locking events automatically. You can access these logs in your management system.

The controller is operated locally over a Bluetooth® connection from a mobile device using the ABLOY BEAT CUMULUS mobile application or any other compatible mobile application.

How to deliver secure and encrypted access to a user’s smart device?

Recent development of access management is that digital keys are used through personal smart devices. Our keyless access solution, ABLOY CUMULUS, was designed to meet future demands. With CUMULUS, we provision access payload to a lock without any prior programming. With strong encryption and Public Key Infrastructure (PKI), we grant users access rights, that only a specific lock can read, authenticate, and authorise. As encryption algorithms develop and smart devices gain more processing power, we can use more sophisticated encryption schemes in access management.

In this whitepaper we explain in further detail, how to deliver secure and encrypted access to a user’s smart device, and how the smart device communicates with CUMULUS locks.
