Keeping your organization safe requires a comprehensive approach to physical security, including key and asset management. With the KeyTrak Guardian system, you can protect your organization from potential security threats by controlling who has access to keys and assets. Here’s what you need to know about managing users:

If you don't, former employees could use their knowledge of your organization's security procedures to steal data, keys, or assets. Removing or locking out an employee from the system is a crucial security step, and the KeyTrak Guardian system makes it easy to do so.
To lock somebody out temporarily, follow these steps:
The employee will be unable to log into the system until an administrator reverses this action.
Removing a user permanently is simple:
By following these best practices, you can keep your KeyTrak system secure and reduce the risk of former employees causing a breach.
