facilities are the subject of a separate policy.

The outside doors of the companys headquarters building are kept


locked during non-business hours. Access to the building is controlled
through the use of pass cards. Such cards are issued to ActiFi
employees by the companys HR department or CFO.

The doors to the companys office are also kept locked during nonbusiness hours. Keys to outside locks will be issued to ActiFi
employees and contractors with a need for access by the companys HR
department or CFO.

The companys office will be monitored by a burglar alarm system


during non-business hours. Procedures will be maintained by the
Companys CFO to determine who gets contacted in the event of a
break-in. Passwords to the burglar alarm are assigned to employees and
maintained by Stephanie Thompson.

All physical security systems must comply with all applicable


regulations such as, but not limited to, building codes and fire
prevention codes.

The computer room will be locked at all times. The company CFO will
determine who has access to the room and who has keys to it. At the
present time the CFO, the Director of IT and the accounting supervisor
are the only ones with access to the room. A motion detector/video
recorder system is in place which records a video of anyone who has
entered the computer room. The director of IT is responsible for
reviewing the video of anyone who has entered the room. If some one
enters the computer room a text message is sent to the Director of IT.

employees who are allowed access to the safe and who have keys to it.

Less critical records such payroll, insurance, and other confidential


information, etc. are kept in a locked file cabinet at an outside storage

monitor systems to protect data and programs from misuse in
accordance with the needs defined by owner departments. Access must
be properly documented, authorized and controlled.
