Abstract
A system for providing credential activation layered security is disclosed. In particular, the system adds a layer of additional security at ingress and egress points of a location, such as a building. When a user attempts to check in at the location, the user may provide a proof of physical presence, a proof of digital presence, or a combination thereof, such as at a device at the location. In order to activate a credential for accessing physical and/or logical access control systems of the location, the system may authenticate the proof of physical presence, the proof of digital presence, or both. If the system authenticates the user, the user may be checked-in and the credential may be activated so that the user may access the physical and/or logical access control systems of the location so as to gain access to the ingress point or exit via the egress point.
