Health & safety to think about
- Know who is in each hall during an evacuation, including contractors working out of hours.
- Brief visitors on electrical, mechanical and confined-space hazards at sign-in, and record that they acknowledged it.
- Record the host escorting each visitor, so responsibility for someone on the floor is never ambiguous.
- Keep an arrival and departure log for incident review.
Security to think about
- Pre-register every visit so nobody arrives unannounced at a door that should not open.
- Verify identity at the desk with ID scanning and a photo captured against the visit.
- Collect NDAs and access agreements before entry, stored against that visit.
- Produce a complete, exportable access record — useful evidence when an auditor asks who was on the floor and when.
How EntryWatch helps data centres
Pre-registration
Visits are booked and approved in advance; unexpected arrivals stand out.
ID scanning & photo capture
Identity checked at the desk and a photo stored against the visit.
Visitor agreements
NDAs and access conditions signed at sign-in, kept with the visit record.
Audit log & reporting
An exportable history of every arrival, departure and escort.
Badge printing
A dated badge that shows at a glance whether someone is escorted.
Frequently asked questions
Can we require approval before a visit goes ahead? ▾
Yes — visitors can be pre-registered and invited in advance, so the people arriving are the people you expected.
Does this satisfy ISO 27001 or SOC 2? ▾
It produces the physical-access records those frameworks expect you to keep — who entered, when, escorted by whom, and what they agreed to. Certification depends on your controls as a whole, not on any one tool.
Can different halls have their own kiosks? ▾
Yes — run a kiosk per entrance or hall, each with its own flow, all reporting into one register.
