It’s a new day. One can’t tune-in to the news without hearing about scary assaults that were once unimaginable.
Regulatory bodies are responding and not only pointing out our vulnerabilities, but in many cases requiring a more rigorous process and documentation to protect our people and facilities. Yet, it’s still common for us to find ourselves filling out a paper visitor log when visiting significant operations. In 2018, why is that?
There are numerous reasons one can cite:
• It’s how we’ve always done things.
• It’s easy.
• It’s cost effective.
• It’s not that big of a deal.
20 years ago, the President of the United States, in PDD-63, created a national program for Critical Infrastructure Protection. Over the last 20 years it has continued to be a bigger and bigger issue and is now a serious concern. It’s time to consider keeping better records for your facility and one aspect of that is to keep a better Visitor Log.
With inexpensive mobile tablets easily available, there are a number of things that can be done easily and cost effectively. There are several products on the market that could be implemented. However, our recommendation is that you consider adding an electronic visitor log, with visitor photos as a larger part of your compliance strategy. A strategy that’s founded in a solid, operational logbook that retains a permanent record for your facility.
That’s why we created LogBook Sentinel.
LogBook Sentinel is available to provide you with a modern and reliable user experience that makes your visitor log sleek, secure and efficient. The software can be installed on iOS and Android tablets within minutes and can be customized with your company’s logo to welcome your guests. The data captured is securely stored within LogBook where you can access it anytime.
Sentinel is a cost effective, user-friendly visitor log that makes your welcome center more “welcoming”. Your receptionist and security personnel will be thrilled with just how much better life can be with a solid system in place. Plus, your visitors will be happy that you ditched the paper and joined the twenty first century.
