Access Control Audit App turns access control audits into a scored, repeatable programme. Auditors score each asset against weighted criteria, attach photo evidence, and track corrective actions to verified closure across every site. Managers compare access control audit scores across sites and track every corrective action to closure.
Access Control Audit App runs a scored access control audit covering reader and door hardware function, credential and permission accuracy, egress and fail-safe or fail-secure behaviour, tailgating and forced-door detection, and access event log completeness, with a photo and a sign-off required on each point. Without a system, access control findings live on paper and in chat. An access control fault such as faulty readers or door contacts slips through. An audit then means rebuilding access control evidence from folders.
Access Control Audit App keeps one record per access control and per site, with photo evidence and a named sign-off. Each access control finding is tracked to verified closure. Security and facilities teams see access control completion and overdue actions across the information technology & telecommunications portfolio. Every access control record proves what was checked, when, and by whom.
What to Include in an Access Control Audit App?
A comprehensive access control audit covers the key areas that affect telecom and data centre uptime, safety, and compliance. Audit physical access control with badge logs, reader tests, tailgating checks, and evidence for colo and DC sites. Your audit should include sections for reader and door hardware function, credential and permission accuracy, and egress and fail-safe or fail-secure behaviour, evidence capture, pass/fail or scoring criteria, corrective action assignment, and sign-off, so that nothing is missed and every audit finding is traceable.
How to Use Access Control Audit App
A scored audit only helps if every auditor scores the same way. Follow these steps to run an access control audit:
Open the access control audit template, which carries weighted criteria and a scoring scheme.
Score each asset against the criteria and attach photo evidence for any non-conformance.
Let the app calculate the section and overall access control score so the site is comparable to others.
Raise a corrective action for each failed access control criterion with an owner and due date.
Sign off the access control audit. The scorecard and branded report generate automatically.
What Does an Access Control Audit Cover?
An access control audit scores condition against ISO 27001 and UL 294, checking reader and door hardware function, credential and permission accuracy, egress and fail-safe or fail-secure behaviour, tailgating and forced-door detection, and access event log completeness. Each access control finding is logged with a photo, a severity, and the failing point. So the access control audit becomes a traceable evidence pack, not an ageing spreadsheet.

How Access Control Audit App Scores an Access Control Audit
Step 1
Score Consistently
Weighted criteria are built into the access control audit template.
Step 2
Evidence Every Finding
Auditors attach photo proof for each access control non-conformance.
Step 3
Compare and Act
Scorecards rank sites and failed access control criteria become corrective actions.

What Access Control Teams Fix When Audits Are Scored the Same Way Everywhere
Access Control work breaks down the moment evidence leaves the form. These are the problems Access Control Audit App is built to remove, and what the team gets back when it does.
The same access control defect comes back every cycle
Faulty readers or door contacts, stale or over-privileged credentials, blocked or unsafe egress, unlogged or held-open doors on the asset are fixed, then reappear weeks later. Each access control defect is treated as fresh because nobody sees it is the third time this quarter. The asset root cause is never addressed.
Problem
Repeat access control defects treated as new every time
No history tying findings to the same asset
Budget spent re-fixing the same asset problem
Solution
Full defect history per asset
Recurring issue detection flags repeat access control problems
Root-cause access control work prioritised by evidence
The access control report is still being assembled by hand
Someone spends Friday afternoon collecting access control photos, notes, and audit records into a report. By the time leadership reads it, the access control data is days old and the next problem is already live.
Problem
Access Control reports compiled by hand from photos and notes
Leadership reads access control data that is already days old
Every access control report looks slightly different
Solution
Branded access control reports generate automatically per site and period
Scheduled access control reports reach managers before the morning meeting
One consistent access control report format across the estate
Every auditor scores the access control audit differently, so sites cannot be compared
One auditor is strict, another is lenient, and a third skips sections. The access control audit scores come back, but leadership cannot tell whether a low score means a weak site or a tough auditor.
Problem
Access Control scoring depends on which auditor showed up
Asset sections get skipped with no record
Access Control scores are not comparable across sites
Solution
Weighted access control criteria baked into the audit template
Mandatory asset sections, so nothing is skipped
Comparable access control scores that roll up across the estate
Frequently Asked Questions
What does Access Control Audit App check on an access control audit?
Access Control Audit App runs a scored access control audit against ISO 27001 and UL 294, checking reader and door hardware function, credential and permission accuracy, egress and fail-safe or fail-secure behaviour, tailgating and forced-door detection, and access event log completeness. Each finding is logged with a photo, a severity, and the point it fails, then routed to an owner with a deadline. It stays open until a reviewer verifies the fix, so the audit becomes a traceable evidence pack for security and facilities teams rather than an ageing spreadsheet. Because scoring is built into the template, two sites assessed by two people produce numbers you can compare fairly.
Which access control defects matter most, and what happens if they are missed?
The audit targets the access control failures that matter most: faulty readers or door contacts, stale or over-privileged credentials, blocked or unsafe egress, and unlogged or held-open doors. Left unchecked, a fault such as faulty readers or door contacts can mean downtime, a safety incident, or a failed audit, so every finding becomes an owned task with a deadline. It stays open until photo proof of the repair is reviewed, and repeat problems are flagged so security and facilities teams fix the cause rather than the symptom. Prioritising by severity means the most serious issues are handled first, not whichever was reported loudest.
Which standards does Access Control Audit App support for access control work?
Access Control Audit App keeps access control checks aligned to ISO 27001 and UL 294. The photos and readings each standard expects are required fields, so an incomplete check cannot be closed and a gap is caught before an assessor finds it. When a review is due, security and facilities teams pull the records for the site in scope with one search instead of rebuilding them from folders. Retention and history stay searchable, so proof remains defensible at any point, not only on the day of an audit.
Can teams run access control checks offline and across multiple sites?
Yes. Access Control Audit App is offline-first: teams complete access control checks on iOS or Android with no signal, capturing photos and the evidence each check requires in the field. Each record syncs automatically when the connection returns, with its timestamp intact, and the same template runs on every site. So security and facilities teams get a live view of what is complete, overdue, or failing per location, and a weak connection in a remote or low-signal area never costs a round or loses a photo.
What evidence proves an access control audit was completed?
Every completed access control audit carries reader and door photo, access-log extract, and credential list note, a GPS location, a timestamp, and a named sign-off. Because the evidence is captured during the round rather than typed up afterwards, security and facilities teams can show exactly what was checked, when, and by whom. When an assessor or client asks, the record exports in seconds as a branded PDF or a searchable history, so proof never depends on someone remembering where a photo was saved or which folder holds last quarter's records.
