PIAM for Government Agencies
Extend the Benefits of Access Control to Visitors & Contractors

Why Government Agencies Need PIAM & Access Control Management
Government agencies face unique security challenges, ranging from protecting classified information to ensuring public safety. A robust Physical Identity and Access Management (PIAM) system like SecurityOS is vital in controlling access to sensitive government buildings and facilities. By centralizing visitor and contractor access management, SecurityOS helps ensure that only authorized individuals can enter secure areas, mitigating security risks, and simplifying compliance processes.
How Can SecurityOS Help Government Agencies?

Centralized Access Control
Simplify the management of physical access to government buildings and restricted areas. With SecurityOS, government agencies can create customized permissions to control access to sensitive locations, such as classified areas, offices, or secure storage rooms. Control access based on working hours, meetings, or operational schedules, ensuring that only authorized visitors or contractors are allowed entry to critical areas.

Automate Provisioning
Streamline access management for government employees, contractors, and visitors with automated workflows. SecurityOS removes human error from the provisioning process by automating access issuance and revocation, ensuring that only authorized individuals access high-security areas such as government offices, data centers, or restricted zones.

Compliance & Reporting
Government agencies are subject to rigorous compliance standards, and SecurityOS helps meet these requirements by generating detailed audit trails and logs. Track and monitor access points, areas visited, and the duration of access - critical for security audits and compliance checks. SecurityOS provides the visibility needed to ensure accountability and transparency within government facilities.

Expire on Sign-Out
Ensure that access is automatically revoked when no longer required. Whether it’s a contractor finishing a project or a visitor completing an appointment, you can configure access tags to expire upon sign-out. Alternatively, set automatic expiration based on a predefined time period, ensuring no unauthorized re-entry.

Centralized Management
Manage access credentials for government buildings across multiple locations from a single, centralized platform. SecurityOS allows administrators to oversee access for temporary employees, visitors, and contractors, ensuring security and operational efficiency across multiple sites or facilities.

Control Points of Entry
Whether using FacilityOS provided hardware or integrating with existing access control systems, SecurityOS helps control critical entry points across your government facilities. From doors to turnstiles and gates, SecurityOS extends the benefits of access control systems to meet complex security needs in dynamic environments.

Data Privacy & Compliance
SecurityOS helps government agencies comply with data privacy regulations and protect sensitive data. With the ability to manage temporary credentials securely, SecurityOS helps ensure that personal information collected during the credentialing process is safeguarded in line with government data privacy laws and standards.
Government Compliance Requirements
Government agencies are held to some of the most stringent compliance standards to ensure national security, protect personal data, and maintain operational integrity. With SecurityOS, government organizations can streamline security measures while meeting regulatory requirements and protecting sensitive data.
Federal Information Security Modernization Act (FISMA)
FISMA mandates that federal agencies implement comprehensive security programs to protect government information systems. SecurityOS supports FISMA compliance by:
- Controlling access to highly sensitive information and critical infrastructure, ensuring only authorized personnel are granted access to classified or restricted zones.
- Tracking access points and maintaining a digital log of credentials issued to guests, supporting security audits and compliance verification.
- Ensuring real-time access control for contractors, and visitors in accordance with FISMA's stringent access control requirements.

Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA)
OSHA sets workplace safety standards for all industries, including government sectors. Agencies must adhere to these standards to ensure the health and safety of visitors, and contractors. SecurityOS helps meet OSHA compliance by:
- Restricting access to hazardous or high-risk areas, such as construction zones or locations with dangerous materials.
- Maintaining detailed logs of who enters and exits restricted areas, supporting OSHA audits and investigations.
- Allowing quick identification of safety violations by tracking access points and times for all individuals on site.

General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR)
For government entities managing data of EU citizens, the GDPR mandates strict guidelines for data privacy and security. Non-compliance can result in severe penalties. SecurityOS aids GDPR compliance by:
- Securing the personal data collected during the credentialing process to prevent unauthorized access and breaches.
- Providing access logs to ensure transparency and accountability in data handling, supporting GDPR audits.
- Allowing governments to set granular access permissions based on data sensitivity, ensuring only authorized individuals can access personal data.

Who Benefits from a PIAM & Access Control Management System?
Security Directors
Security Directors oversee access control for government buildings, ensuring that only authorized personnel and visitors enter secure areas. SecurityOS simplifies this process by automating provisioning, expiring access upon sign-out, and centralizing access management across multiple sites. With detailed compliance reporting, Security Directors can efficiently track and audit access to classified zones, mitigating security risks while ensuring compliance with FISMA and other government regulations.
Compliance Officers
Compliance Officers are responsible for ensuring that government agencies adhere to strict regulatory frameworks such as FISMA, GDPR, and OSHA. SecurityOS provides them with real-time access logs, automated reports, and detailed audit trails to support compliance verification and security audits. By tracking visitor and contractor access to sensitive areas, Compliance Officers can streamline regulatory adherence and minimize legal risks.
Facilities & Security Managers
Facilities & Security Managers are responsible for the day-to-day operations and security of government buildings. SecurityOS allows them to efficiently manage access credentials, control entry points, and integrate with existing access control systems. With centralized access control and automated provisioning, Facility Managers can enhance security while ensuring operational efficiency across multiple government locations.
