Software House Access Control: Where C•CURE 9000 Earns Its Place

Software House access control, built on C•CURE 9000 from Johnson Controls, is enterprise access control for organizations with many doors, many operators and strict audit needs. Universities, financial firms and hospitals and health institutions tend to choose it.

  • Partitioning

    Data and permissions separate by site, tenant or department.

  • Enterprise scale

    C•CURE 9000 Enterprise runs a master server with up to 60 satellite application servers, with high availability and failover options for sites that cannot go down.

  • Event and incident management

    Alarms, door events and operator responses are handled and recorded in one place.

  • Deployment

    C•CURE IQ, the evolution of C•CURE 9000, deploys on premises, hybrid or as C•CURE Cloud. A single office suite usually needs a lighter platform.

iSTAR Controller Design, Replacement and Firmware

The iSTAR controller sets reader capacity, encryption and what a site can do if the server link drops.

ControllerWhere it fits
iSTAR Edge G2Up to 8 readers; smaller areas, remote sites and tight closets
iSTAR Ultra familyDense door counts in large buildings, sized per closet
Legacy iSTAR modelsChecked against the target version's supported hardware list; replaced in phases where needed

Current iSTAR G2 controllers support encrypted OSDP and modern TLS. We review reader protocol and firmware together, because upgrading one without the other leaves the gap open.

C•CURE 9000 Upgrades From C•CURE 800 and Older Versions

C•CURE 9000 upgrades are where many New York buildings are now, with C•CURE 800 or early versions on unsupported servers.

  • Version path

    Some upgrades need intermediate versions. We test the SQL database migration on a copy before the live cutover.

  • Server and OS

    New server or virtual machine, supported Windows and SQL, updated backups.

  • Controllers in phases

    Floor by floor or building by building, so doors stay managed.

  • Cardholder data

    Records, clearances and history carry forward, cleaned first.

C•CURE Integrations, Modules and Mobile

C•CURE integration puts the event, the door and the camera on one screen, and the add-on modules decide how much admin it removes.

  • Video

    victor with American Dynamics recorders and exacqVision video management, both from Johnson Controls, plus supported third-party systems. The security cameras we supply are NDAA-compliant only.

  • Salto offline locks

    C•CURE manages Salto battery locks through the Salto server, for interior doors that are hard to wire.

  • Lobbies and elevators

    Turnstile speed lanes, biometric readers and elevator access control, integrated with all major elevator brands, including Braxos.

  • Visitors and requests

    C•CURE Portal handles visitor management, and Access Management Workflow lets staff request access for approval.

  • Government credentials

    C•CURE High Assurance supports FIPS 201 credential requirements.

  • Dashboards and mobile

    C•CURE IQ adds security dashboards and a browser client; the C•CURE Go mobile app supports monitoring on the move.

  • Ecosystem

    The Connected Partner Program covers 300+ integrations, including intrusion panels.
