Security
Smart Security
Eight building blocks cover the identification and authentication spectrum
Choose several. Or choose them all. These eight building blocks cover all the bases of identification and authentication. We call that smart security. The more elements you deploy, the smarter your security -- and the wider your protection.
Integration
1. Security Needs Assessments
Assess your security needs. Our solution team conducts customer site assessments to evaluate your security needs. We assess both physical and logical environments for vulnerability, risk, construction, and anti-terrorism operations.
2. Life-Cycle Management
Structure a single, integrated identity database. We reduce your costs and processing time by seamlessly integrating your many disparate databases. This ensures that when an employee arrives, enrollment in access systems is swift and non-duplicative. When an employee leaves, access is immediately removed.
3. Systems Maintenance and Help Desk Support
Support your ID program around the clock. Our project team works with you to tailor a solution to your IT environment and security needs. Plus, we can design, implement, and operate state-of-the-art call centers, as well as web portals, knowledge management systems, and wireless data interfaces.
4. Card Management and Enrollment
Issue your ID cards electronically. Employing live enrollment workstations, we use our proven processes and technologies to simplify and automate cardholder enrollment.
5. Identification and Background Checks
Install automated background checks. Your smart security solution can include fingerprint background checks. We deploy systems that enable you to collect fingerprints and submit identification data electronically - through approved channels - for comparison to external, third-party criminal identification databases.
6. Application Development
Customize to your application needs. We help you develop and implement appropriate applications, including positive identification, transportation and travel access, supply and inventory accounting, and records for employment, finances, and medical history.
Access
7. Access Control - Physical and Logical Environments
Choose the right technology for your environment. Smart cards. Magnetic stripe cards. Optical cards. Biometrics. Public key infrastructure. Imaging systems. Customized access needs. And more. We can help you make the best choices through every phase of the access development process to secure your facilities, your computer networks, and your data.
8. Emergency Dispatch and Response Systems
Provide emergency access to first responders. The nation's leading provider of 911 emergency systems, Northrop Grumman IT can integrate your access control system into local emergency dispatch systems - so when time is critical, first responders can gain immediate access to your facility.
