Electronic Physical Access Control Systems

Overlay Name:   Electronic Physical Access Control System

Overlay Publication Date: April 2021

Technology or System: Electronic Physical Access Control System (ePACS)

Overlay Author: PACS Modernization Working Group (PACSmod WG)

Comments: Electronic Physical Access Control Systems (ePACS) use a combination of IT components and physical security elements (e.g., card readers, doors/locks) to enable access to real-world resources such as secured facilities or controlled areas within facilities. This overlay provides a standardized template for Chief Security Officers (CSOs) and other ePACS professionals working to secure Federal facilities in a secure and interoperable fashion. Additionally, it should help to inform those Authorizing Officials (AOs) asked to evaluate the cyber specific risks posed to the IT infrastructure comprising its ePACS.
