The big loophole in access control Managing visitors is a challenge for most access control systems, simply because these systems focus on controlling the access rights of people whose identities we already know, namely employees. Visitors on the other hand are pretty much an unknown quantity we, to a greater or lesser extent, take at face value. They come in many different categories, from suppliers, customers and contractors to service providers and delivery or collection drivers. They also interact with different elements of our businesses.
Competent access systems will have a facility to enrol visitors and then control their access rights. However, do we know who these visitors are, can we positively identify them? At best, the situation lacks any of the rigorous, systematic structures that are built into managing employee access. At worst, it will allow armed visitors to walk amongst you at your place of work. However, by far the most widespread method of managing visitor access has no link into the employee access system but is rather via a standalone, paper-based register, and these are inherently insecure for both the visitor and your organisation.
| Welcome to EVIM |  | During June 2007 the Electronic Visitor Identity Management (EVIM) system was launched. The system works by verifying the validity of visitor details and capturing a fingerprint. Based on Sagem's biometric and GPRS technology, the system will identify a visitor and create an electronic register in about the same time it takes to fill in your details on a piece of paper. |
