The Importance of Access Control in the Digital Age

The idea behind access control is simple. If you don’t need access to certain information in order to complete a task then you won’t be given access. Access control within a business works in a similar way with company owners, managers and employees often having different levels of access. As technology changes access control becomes a necessity for all businesses.

Access Control is one of the oldest necessities in business. For example, while a store might have 50 employees, only the owner and a select few managers have the keys to the door and the code to the alarm system. That way, if the store gets robbed, and the perpetrator had both a key and the security code, it narrows the pool of possible suspects.

The idea behind access control is simple: if you don’t need access to something to do your job, then why should you have that access?

The Challenges of The Internet Age

As technology grows more advanced, access control becomes both more necessary, and more difficult. Most businesses today have a computerised network, and that network controls all of the activity in that business. Hourly employees use the network to clock in and out, and human resources uses it to keep track of employee information and to make changes when necessary. Management uses the network to evaluate job performance, to store notes on employee activity, and to keep track of customer information. That’s a lot of data, and a business has to make sure that employees only have access to the parts of it they need to for security purposes. That’s a big challenge to face, but it’s why Elf Productivity Ltd. designed software to make that job easy.
