Visitor management: how to answer it in a security questionnaire

Usually asked as: “Describe your visitor management procedures.”

Updated

What is visitor management?

Visitor management is the process for controlling non-employees who enter a facility. It usually includes sign-in, identity checks, visitor badges, escorts, and a visitor log. Data centers apply stricter versions of the same controls.

What the buyer is really asking

Buyers want to know that visitors are signed in, escorted, and kept away from sensitive areas. For data centers this is inherited from your provider. For offices, describe the sign-in and escort rules.

Other ways buyers ask it

Every one of these wants the same answer:

  • “Describe your visitor management procedures.”
  • “Are visitors escorted at all times?”
  • “Do you keep a visitor log?”

Evidence to have ready

  • The visitor procedure
  • Visitor logs, if you have an office

How Tyrvar answers this

Tyrvar treats every wording above as one question. You write the answer once, attach the evidence, and revisit it when your setup changes. Each buyer gets that approved answer no matter how their questionnaire words it. If you have not answered it yet, Tyrvar flags the question for you and does not make something up. Try it on your own questionnaire.
