OSDP
The Open Supervised Device Protocol, or OSDP, is an access control communication standard developed by the Security Industry Association (SIA) to improve interoperability amongst access control products, whilst providing increased security.
Benefits of OSDP
Compared to many existing legacy protocols, OSDP offers:
- Higher security with up to AES-128 encryption between the reader and controller, as well as constant monitoring of the wiring to protect against attack threats.
- Advanced functionality such as bi-directional communication to configure readers through the software.
- Reduced cost as installation requires only 2 wires, instead of 12+ and, due to the simplicity of installation, there’s less time on site.
- Greater interoperability between different devices and solutions, as a globally accredited open standard
- An unique feature of Impro’s OSDP module is the support of both Wiegand and OSDP, to enable a simplified upgrade path.

The power of access control, free of charge
Access Portal Basic is free of charge and provides features that are normally only available through licensed software.
Installation is simplified with an auto-install function which includes the automatic configuration of your hardware to reduce the traditional time and complexity associated with setting up an access control solution.
The system also includes a number of high-end features, not often bundled with free software, such as anti-passback doors (APB) and the ability to create custom design access cards.
An added benefit is the ability to use biometric readers.
All free, no catches!
