It All Starts With a Handheld Stock Take Scanner
We have designed our Self-Scan solution to have minimum impact on our client’s IT infrastructure, requiring very little set-up and network configuration. In order to maintain high availability and ensure optimum stock take efficiency, Datascan employs redundant server pools with automated failover and backup. Also, our scanners are able to communicate with our servers via wireless or wired network using a TCP connection. Adaptable technology results in a stock take process that is simpler for our clients.
Datascan offers three connection options:
Customer WIFI Network
Using a wireless network that already exist in the store is generally the most reliable communication option. Our applications use very little bandwidth and require minimal support from the client IT department to get setup and working.
Customer Wired Network
Datascan can provide access points that plug into existing wired networks inside of the store so the scanning devices can communicate using wireless, which leads to a seamless counting process for the stores.
Cellular
Datascan has several cellular LTE options using various domestic and international carriers. With this option, Datascan provides a complete communication package for the scanners which simply requires the users to power on the cellular device and start counting.
Independent LTE Network Connection
Datascan can send LTE communication equipment directly to stores for their physical inventory counts. Sufficient devices can be provided to enable store wide coverage and can be configured to use the best carrier service available in the area.

Inventory Data is Encrypted
All inventory data sent from the scanner is uploaded using a secure HTTPS connection. Data is also sent in a granular format so that only small batches are sent at a time. The endpoint server also requires authentication to connect.
SSID Information security
All SSID passphrases are stored encrypted on the scanning device. Encryption uses the AES-256 cipher approved by the US government and used as an industry security standard. Key exchange uses RSA-2048.
