Managing access rights can be challenging without the correct processes in place. Data centers need to know who is in their buildings and for how long. Monitoring temporary access and managing cardholder credentials for employees and visitors can be time consuming and difficult when using a manual approach, leading to inefficiencies and a significant risk to security.

Data centers face strict regulations as they relate to access management, and failure to comply and enforce policies can lead to hefty fines. Along with managing access requests from visitors and complying to industry regulations, data centers also face insider threats from employees with privileged credentials. A recent article by Forbes mentioned that 74% of their companies’ data breaches came from employees with privileged credentials accessing secured areas.

Access control alone is not enough. A manual approach to access management is time consuming and risky. There’s a smarter and more efficient way to work. Convergint partners with Genetec to provide an innovative and automated access management system that meets industry regulations and protects against inside and outside threats.

ClearID: Secure Assets and Streamline Access Rights

Genetec ClearID™ is a self-service physical identity and access management (PIAM) system that strengthens security policies while improving the flow of people within organizations. Unified with Genetec’s access control system, Security Center Synergis™, this cloud-based solution can be quickly and easily deployed.

Streamline access requests

Give employees and visitors a better way to request new access privileges. Rely on automated workflows and email notifications to manage the lifecycle of identities to enable a more fluid and efficient working environment for everyone.

Ensure compliance

Strengthen security policies by allowing only authorized individuals to access secured areas. This is especially important for data centers that must comply with access security policies. Additionally, the audit process is simplified by allowing site owners to quickly review access permissions and revoke or add individuals as needed.

Automate visitor management

Improve visitor experience by automating all the processes throughout their lifecycle, including visitor pre-registration, check-in and out, badge printing, and more. It provides a central place to enforce visitor policies at all sites.
