Preparing for an audit In an industry where organizations need to comply with strict access requirements, regular audits are essential. For example, a supervisor is informed of an upcoming audit and reaches out to the security director so he can get a report on who has access to restricted areas. But the security director is on vacation, which means running the report becomes convoluted and time-consuming. Once it's finally handed over, the supervisor notices how many unauthorized people have had access to these restricted areas. They include former visitors and employees who have left the organization. If the regulating body were to find out, the organization would be handed a hefty fine for breaching regulations. Now, the supervisor will have to review every person on the report and identify who should continue to have access. Once finalized, he'll need to send a report of people who need to be removed so that the security director can update the access control system. This manual process is painfully slow, resource dependent, and open to human error because someone on the list could easily be missed. With ClearID, the supervisor can log into the portal to quickly see who has access to rooms and areas and revoke the people who shouldn't be there. He can simply pick the location he wants to verify and then instantly revoke a person's access to that room – with the option to provide a reason. What used to be a costly manual process can now be done in minutes – putting control back in the hands of the supervisor and saving the organization thousands in fines. 11
