Step 2c - Assign Security Clearances

All Entrants will be assigned a security clearance level by the Personnel department.  The TRAP-ITÔ PLANNER identifies six predefined security clearance levels.  The purpose of this step is to assign a security clearance level to each identified individual or group (Entrant).  The security clearance completes the identification of the Entrant and defines the ACCESS rules associated with their movement within your facility. 

There are six security levels defined in the drop down “security clearance” data field:

  • Full
    Given full unrestricted access to the facility.  People assigned this clearance are recognized by facility management as being absolutely trustworthy.
     
  • Escorted
    Granted access with minimal security clearance.  People assigned this clearance must be accompanied by an escort with full access security clearance.
     
  • Supervised
    Granted access to the facility only when the facility is staffed with personnel having full access security clearance.
     
  • Restricted
    Granted access only to specified areas of the facility that are clearly marked.  Movement to and from the restricted areas may only occur under escort.
     
  • Denied
    Prohibited from entry to the facility.  This is the default clearance assigned to all entry applicants, until their assigned security clearance is upgraded.
     
  • Discretionary
    Personnel may, at their discretion, assign a special security clearance exemption, with any access rules they feel appropriate.  The access rules of this clearance level must be kept on the Entrant at all times.

When am I done with this step?

This step is complete when you have assigned appropriate security clearance levels to every Entrant you identified in Step 2b.


Setting the Security Clearance for Entrants


Assigning security clearances is accomplished by selecting a group or individual and then clicking on one of the predefined levels in the 'Security clearance' selection box. Your change is automatically saved.

You will notice that each time a security clearance is selected, a predefined 'Security objective' for the chosen level is also displayed.  Continuing to select different security clearances gives you the ability to examine the associated security objectives.
