While physical security professionals have suspected a shift toward increased involvement of the IT department in physical access control, a new study from HID Global proves this to be true. According to the results of a recent survey of IT professionals, 55% of respondents indicated that IT currently shares responsibility for – or fully manages – access control, with this number forecasted to grow.

This whitepaper, The Rising Role of IT in Physical Access Control, summarizes the details discovered in this research and provides actionable insights that will increase collaboration between IT and Physical Security.
