Challenges in Integrating Building Management Systems Across Multiple Properties
As a landlord, developer, or building manager overseeing multiple properties, one of the most daunting challenges is finding systems that seamlessly integrate with existing building management software. The complexity escalates when these systems must accommodate user permissions across various properties at scale. This lack of integration not only hampers operational efficiency but also poses a significant risk in managing multiple properties effectively. Therefore, adopting a web platform that enables efficient management of multiple properties is critical. It enhances operational efficiencies and ensures seamless oversight across all properties.

Vulnerability of Legacy Access Control Systems to Modern Security Threats
In the current market, the security of access control panels is alarmingly compromised. Legacy systems, which are widely used in many buildings, lack essential security features such as encryption and multifactor authentication. This situation creates a false sense of security, offering convenience at the expense of safety. Alarmingly, devices like Flipper Zero—a penetration testing tool gaining popularity on platforms like TikTok, Instagram, and YouTube—pose a severe threat. These devices can easily breach legacy control systems such as HID and ICT, rendering buildings vulnerable to brute force attacks. Consequently, for property stakeholders, it is paramount to upgrade to more secure systems to protect against these increasingly sophisticated intrusion methods.

Cybersecurity Risks in Building Networks Due to Inadequate Security Measures
The demand for smart, connected buildings is increasing, driven by the convenience and advanced technology they offer. However, this trend also carries a significant risk of cyberattacks. Often, the integration of smart devices into building infrastructure prioritizes end-user experience over security, leaving the network vulnerable. Without a robust network infrastructure, all connected devices, including sensors and doors, are susceptible to digital denial of service attacks. This vulnerability can lead to critical system failures, making smart devices inoperative. For landlords, developers, and building managers, it is urgent to prioritize and strengthen cybersecurity measures to protect against these sophisticated threats and ensure the continuous functionality of smart building systems.
Benson Hunt addresses all three of these problems as a service provider with a security infrastructure-first approach.
