Automating Attendance Tracking with HySecure Gateway

2 min read

Tracking employee attendance in hybrid and shift-based environments has long been a significant friction point for HR and IT teams. Manual processes are inherently prone to errors, time-consuming, and often complicate compliance with critical labour regulations.

HySecure 7.1 addresses this challenge directly, leveraging its security gateway to become a seamless source of truth for workforce presence. The platform now offers secure APIs that integrate directly with your HR Management Systems (HRMS) to fully automate attendance tracking for remote workers.

The Power of Verifiable Access Data

This integration goes beyond simple time-stamping; it delivers accurate, tamper-proof attendance records, significantly enhancing data reliability. By sourcing login and logout times directly from the secure access layer, HySecure eliminates extra steps for employees, automatically capturing attendance seamlessly.

The feature provides real-time attendance data in a standard JSON format for easy processing by your HRMS. For security, API access is protected using JWT-based authentication, ensuring sensitive employee information remains secure. Furthermore, the system offers flexible filters by user, domain, date, and time for tailored data retrieval, allowing for granular control over the information pulled.

Strategic Benefits Across the Organisation

Automating attendance tracking with HySecure delivers tangible value to every relevant department:

  • For HR & Payroll Teams: You achieve 100% accurate data, eliminating manual errors and ensuring payroll accuracy every time. This integration is audit-ready, generating compliance reports with a transparent, traceable, and tamper-proof audit trail. Critically, it frees up hours spent on manual data entry and reconciliation, leading to significant time savings.
  • For IT Teams: Integration is simple and secure. The modern REST APIs with JWT authentication enable seamless integration with virtually any modern HRMS. IT maintains granular control by applying flexible filters for users, domains, and date ranges to retrieve only the data needed, reducing unnecessary load.
  • For Business & Compliance Leaders: The automated system ensures compliance with labour regulations through accurate, automated record-keeping, thereby reducing risk. Leaders gain actionable insights from a reliable, data-driven view of workforce productivity across distributed, hybrid, or shift-based teams.

This feature transforms a critical everyday process, making attendance secure, seamless, and free from manual effort. For organisations with distributed or hybrid teams, it ensures efficiency and compliance without added complexity.
