As the boundaries between physical and digital security continue to blur, organisations are recognising that a siloed approach to managing threats no longer works. In a new feature for the Austin Business Journal, Scott Meyer, CEO of Sign In App, explores how the convergence of cyber and physical security is reshaping the way companies think about access, identity, and risk.
The article examines how Sign In App is leading this shift toward access intelligence—a unified, real-time view of who has access to what, where, and when. Meyer describes this evolution through what he calls “Visitor Management 2.0”: a single, risk-adaptive platform that brings together visitor management, physical access controls, and digital identity verification.
Rather than treating physical security and cybersecurity as separate disciplines, the platform uses AI to correlate access logs with digital activity in real time, closing the gaps that hybrid attacks exploit. Meyer notes that a visitor logged into a terminal whose badge shows they are not in the building would trigger an immediate alert—the kind of cross-domain intelligence that legacy systems simply cannot deliver.
The piece also highlights Sign In App’s continued momentum, including the acquisition of The Receptionist in January 2026 and a landmark global partnership with ISS, one of the world’s largest facility services companies. As Meyer puts it: “Access control is no longer about gates and guards. It’s about ensuring trust and readiness across a distributed organisation.”
