Morpheus.Network team members Dan Weinberger (Co-founder and CEO), Noam Eppel (Co-founder and COO), and Roger Crook (Team Lead for Global Logistics), recently created a video demonstration of the platform’s Secure Access capabilities. We’re very excited about the potential of Secure Access!

Noam Eppel described the system’s inception, stemming from a customer with a trucking park in South America which was having trouble authorizing drivers to enter the facility. Truck drivers had to provide a large number of physical documents, which then had to be manually inspected before letting the truck driver in. This manual process was error-prone and slow, leading to wasted time and cost for everyone involved.

With the Morpheus.Network platform’s Secure Access capabilities, they’re able to streamline their authentication and verification processes using a custom workflow directed at truck dispatchers. It allows them to set up a delivery each morning and add a corresponding truck and driver with photos of all relevant documentation.

This information is then sent to the truck driver via a unique QR code, which is all they need to give to the security guard. Security guards can then scan the unique QR code to access all relevant documents and information. Approved deliveries are automatically shared back with dispatchers, and delivery history is stored for both trucks and drivers.

In similar uses, Automated License Plate Recognition (ALPR) through Optical Character Recognition (OCR) technology can be used to detect and read a license plate as it approaches the security gate. The truck’s license plate can be used as an ID, replacing the need to use QR codes.

Combined with our Platform’s tight integration with IoT technologies (real time location, geofence, temperature readings) and our agreement with Geotab, a global leader in telematics and IoT, our Secure Access is a tremendously powerful “soft-border” solution.

All data is securely and privately hashed on the blockchain for digital records, including documentation, time of truck entry, time of truck exit, how access was granted, etc.

With Secure Access, the platform is also building a large dataset which can be analyzed through our machine learning capabilities and used to further streamline the movements of trucks around the trucking park.

The Secure Access system illustrates the tremendous power and flexibility of the Morpheus.Network platform to adopt to different use cases and customer requirements, and shows how advanced technologies can be made user-friendly. This entire system was built in close collaboration with our customer to address their unique challenges and can be utilized for other customers requiring Secure Access capabilities.
