During heightened security, what should you do if you are uncertain about a person's identity?

• A. Allow entry after a casual confirmation.
• B. Verify access and request sponsor or supervisor.
• C. Ignore the request for identification.
• D. Escort the person away without documentation.

Answer: (B)

During heightened security, access control hinges on confirming who a person is and whether they’re authorized to enter. If you’re unsure about someone’s identity, you shouldn’t grant entry. The proper action is to verify their access and involve a sponsor or supervisor to confirm authorization. This maintains accountability and prevents unauthorized individuals from gaining entry.

Casual confirmation or ignoring identification bypasses the verification process, which increases risk. Escorting the person away without proper documentation can create disagreement and leaves no record of what was attempted or approved.
