As organizations face increasing pressure to streamline operations and secure access to sensitive facilities, identity management solutions are becoming a critical focus in the physical security space. While traditional access control handles the "how" of gaining entry, identity management tackles the "who" and "why" — automating the full lifecycle of identity onboarding, change requests, and compliance checks. A recent example: one Symmetry Connect client completed over 400,000 access reviews in 20 days, achieving 99% compliance. That kind of operational leap is hard to ignore.
