Marine & Cruise Security

Cloud and offline-capable access, mustering, and visitor management for cruise ships and marine operations. Keep crew, passengers, and visitors accounted for in port and at sea.

Why marine operators choose Acre

Cruise operations run on unreliable connectivity once a ship is underway. A-PASS keeps crew records, mustering, and visitor management current, online or offline.

Keep crew and passenger operations running with or without connectivity

A-PASS mobile modules, includingMobile Guard, Immigration, and Muster,run offline on your ship's private networkor local device storage, then sync whenconnectivity returns.

Deploy only the modules your fleet needs

Crew management, mustering, visitor management, and immigration run as modules on one platform. Deploy only what each ship needs.

Know who is on board before the gangway closes

Passenger, crew, and visitor status updates in one place as people move, with live dashboards, alerts, and synced logs across port calls, drills, and emergencies.

Trusted by 1000+ Organizations Worldwide

One platform for crew, passenger, and visitor identity.

Mustering, credentialing, and visitor management run from one platform, online or offline.

Intrusion Detection

Intrusion detection built for government environments, protecting critical infrastructure and sensitive zones, triggering immediate alerts, and feeding all events into the same platform as your access and identity data.

Alerts reach your team the moment a sensor triggers

Unauthorized entry, forced doors, and after-hours motion events generate real-time alerts to your security team. Response starts before an incident escalates, not after a morning review of overnight logs.

Layered detection for high-security zones

Combine motion sensors, seismic detectors, and door contacts to protect vaults, server rooms, and evidence storage with detection layers matched to each zone's threat level.

Intrusion events appear alongside access and identity data

Intrusion events are visible in the same platform as access control and visitor data. Your team gets a single view of all physical security activity, with no context-switching between systems during an active incident.

Visitor Management and Identity

Visitor and identity management for government facilities, credentialed check-in, role-based badging, live occupancy for emergency response, plus integrated CCTV and life-safety monitoring on the same platform.

Public visitors checked in and badged in under 30 seconds

Touchscreen kiosks let public visitors and pre-registered guests check in and print a secure, customised badge in 2 to 30 seconds. NDA and visitor agreement capture is built into the check-in flow. Pre-registered groups use FAST-PASS for expedited entry.

Credentials issued by role and clearance level, automatically

Credentials are issued based on each person's role and authorization level. Staff, contractors, and visitors are only granted access to areas they are cleared for, and permissions update automatically when roles change.

Live building occupancy for emergency response

The emergency response dashboard shows live building occupancy and the real-time location of designated responders. During a lockdown or evacuation, your team can account for every person in the facility without waiting for manual roll calls.

Frequently Asked Questions

Book a 30-Minute Demo
Can supervisors override status or manually check-in individuals if needed?

Yes. A-PASS supports manual search, comment logging, and override features across multiple modules. Supervisors can change a person's status, add context for exceptions, or complete a check-in manually when scanning fails - all with full traceability

How does A-PASS manage visitor access and temporary badges?

A-PASS enables the bulk printing of disposable thermal visitor passes. These are scanned at guard stations for activation, photo capture, and tracking. Passes are automatically invalidated upon reset, improving both efficiency and security.

Does A-PASS integrate with our ship’s property or crew management systems?

Yes. A-PASS offers two key services:

1. ADAM, for real-time, bidirectional data exchange with PMS or crew systems.
2. EVE, for streaming status updates, emergency flags, and more to connected systems.

These tools eliminate redundant entries and centralize critical data.

How does A-PASS help us meet maritime safety compliance requirements?

A-PASS automates emergency mustering, maintains timestamped logs, and tracks real-time check-ins via PDA or fixed kiosks. The system enables fast, accurate accountability of crew and passengers during drills and actual emergencies - reducing manual error and supporting auditability.

Can A-PASS function during network outages or in offline conditions?

Yes. A-PASS mobile modules - including Mobile Guard, Immigration, and Muster - support offline operations using private networks or device storage. Data syncs back to the server when connectivity is restored, ensuring continuity even during port calls or emergencies.
