SecurityOS release notes – February 2026

We are pleased to announce the following new and improved features in our February 2026 release!

Honeywell Pro-Watch access card activation from VisitorOS kiosk

Required tierAvailable as a paid integration to all customers using SecurityOS Corporate with VisitorOS

SecurityOS now integrates with Honeywell ProWatch to automatically activate and deactivate visitor access cards based on VisitorOS kiosk sign-in and sign-out.

Frequent site visitors and contractors who use Honeywell ProWatch cards must now complete kiosk sign-in to activate their card. When they sign out, or are auto-signed-out, their card is automatically deactivated. This closes a major security gap by ensuring only properly signed-in contractors can access the facility.

Key updates include:

  • Automatic card activation when a contractor completes kiosk sign-in
  • Automatic card deactivation on sign-out or auto-sign-out
  • Real-time enforcement of access tied directly to on-site presence
  • Clear audit trail linking contractor access to VisitorOS activity

Key benefits 

  • Stronger security: Prevents visitors and contractors from accessing the facility without signing in
  • Reduced risk: Eliminates lingering active badges after contractors leave
  • Better compliance: Creates a clear, auditable record of who had access and when
  • Less manual work: Removes the need for security teams to manually enable and disable badges

Pre-registration watchlist hold

Required tierAvailable to customers who use VisitorOS watchlists, have pre-registration, and also have SecurityOS.

Visitors who trigger a watchlist hit during pre-registration will no longer receive access credentials automatically. Instead, those visitors are held for review until a host or authorized user explicitly approves them. Only after approval will a QR code credential be issued.

This closes a security gap where visitors flagged by a watchlist hit were receiving access credentials by default.
