Abstract

A method, by an intelligent access control system, of implementing access control to a controlled area having a plurality access areas divided by at least one access point includes the following operations. A security token is generated. The security token is transmitted to a client module executing on a client device associated with a first user, and the client module is caused to pair with an access control device associated with the first user. The client module is caused to transfer the security token to the access control device. A physical location of the client device within the controlled area is monitored. A determination is made, by an access control system and based upon the physical location, that the first user is to be revalidated. The client module causes, based upon the determining, the client device to generate an alert.
