How do I install Gatekeeper?

Gatekeeper is our vendor scan-in product. It is designed to run on a dedicated ipad or computer and allows vendors to scan themselves into a facility. If no dedicated ipad or computer is available, facility users may check in vendors manually by logging into www.greensecurityllc.com, searching for the vendor, and clicking the "Check In" button from the vendor's profile page.


URL Whitelist

In order to ensure that the system works properly, the following domains should be whitelisted on the facility's network:

  • www.greensecurityllc.com
  • d37hfq3t37fvvd.cloudfront.net

In addition, here are two javascript files we include directly that are on more generic domains that you might want to whitelist via their full url instead of the domain:

  • sdk.amazonaws.com/js/aws-sdk-2.283.1.min.js
  • js.pusher.com/4.2/pusher.min.js
