In a computing context, access control is a security approach that regulates who or what can view or utilize resources. It is a basic security concept that reduces the risk to the company or organization. Organizations utilize electronic access control systems to track employee access to restricted company locations and private regions, such as data centers, using user credentials, access card readers, auditing, and reports. Access control panels, as well as alarms and lockdown features, are included in some of these systems to prevent illegal access or actions. Depending on their compliance needs and the security levels of information technology they are aiming to protect, Logical Network Solutions offers a variety of access control solutions.
