Why must access control measures be adjusted according to threat levels?

  1. To comply with federal regulations

  2. To enhance security based on potential risks

  3. To maintain visitor satisfaction

  4. To limit the number of staff on site

The correct answer is: To enhance security based on potential risks

Access control measures must be adjusted according to threat levels primarily to enhance security based on potential risks. This means that the security protocols and barriers in place should be proportionate to the level of threat that an organization faces at any given time. If a high level of threat is identified, more stringent access control measures, such as additional surveillance, strict identification verification, or physical barriers, may be necessary to protect assets, personnel, and information from potential harm. In situations where the threat level is lower, access control can be less restrictive, allowing for smoother operations and easier access for authorized individuals. This dynamic adjustment helps organizations allocate security resources effectively, ensuring that they are not over-spending on unnecessary measures during low-risk periods while still sufficiently protecting against potential threats during high-risk times.
