Is there a Need for Access Control Solutions in Pharma Beyond Security?

MassMediaLink India LLP SecurityLink IndiaApril 23, 2025April 23, 202509 mins

With new life-saving drugs being created every day, the pharmaceutical industry is directly involved in saving human lives across the world. With how important the work of this sector is, it becomes more important to leverage physical access control for the pharmaceutical sector . This helps protect intellectual property and physical as well as human assets. The top concerns about security in pharmaceutical industries include the safety of materials in the company warehouse and the security of confidential information. These losses can lead to issues inclusive of drug counterfeiting, brand damage, and many more that affect the company as a whole. Access Control & Pharmaceutical Companies With risks that it faces internally as well as externally, these companies need to strengthen their less secure areas. Healthcare data, research details, company secrets, manufactured end-products – there is a requirement for special access provisions to control the flow from places containing these important elements. There are rapid changes happening in security needs, especially physical access control for pharmaceutical companies and the changing nature of security breaches. The major pain to solve here is to remove inefficient access control solutions for the pharmaceutical sector. Fighting a war with badly equipped weaponry leads to sure defeats. This brings us to the conclusion that a well-built access control system is the need of the hour for pharmaceutical companies to fight security issues. But, there is another dimension to access control systems for these companies beyond security reasons. The need for Access Control beyond Security The answer to that thought is a big YES! While elements pertaining to security are to be controlled, it is equally important for pharma companies to maintain the environment within their production units, research divisions, and packaging units. All through the processes involved in these units, there is a high requirement for the environmental conditions to be controlled as per the need. This is because environmental factors such as humidity, temperature, allowable particle size, and more have a degrading effect on product quality, shelf-life, and more such properties. This affects the quality of the drug or the raw materials needed to make the drug. Beyond these concerns, sanitation and hygiene are equally important aspects needed for the smooth functioning of such facilities. While devices can help maintain the environment within the facilities, there are high chances of contamination occurring at the entry and exit points. If not checked, this can further lead to the spread of contamination across the facilities and hence needs to be curbed right away. This is where the Access Control Solution comes into the picture. Different solutions provide different answers to this key problem within the pharmaceutical industry. Let us understand how access control solutions solve this trouble. Leveraging Access Control for Controlled Traffic The only way to control traffic is to control the door that allows entry or exit from that area. For all access, the opening of the door is to be set in such a way that it opens only on certain conditions. Failure to match these conditions will cause the door to stay closed and in turn, protect it from any harmful elements, especially in environmentally sensitive areas. Full Control over the door can be achieved using a dedicated door interlock in conjunction with door sense or similar devices. It can also be achieved using a normal access door controller with advanced access features. The method of ensuring control over a particular space with two doors in tandem is called Door Interlocking. It goes by many other names such as Airlock, Mantrap, or Tiger Trap. Basic Functioning The Door Interlocking establishes a closed environment by controlling two or more doors that enclose a singular space. As a part of access control, it incorporates a trapped environment for anyone before they enter or exit a secure space, especially a space with high demands of environmental conditions. In the simplest form, similar to an airlock, this framework for door interlocking is made of two doors connected through electronic means. The framework is created to not allow the opening of one door if the other door is open. The benefits also become more apparent with the introduction of contactless credentials. Beyond conventional biometric access control, contactless credentials such as Face Recognition and Mobile Credentials bring in a higher amount of hygiene control. With such features, the man trap feature brings in true contactless access within your environment-controlled units. Benefits of Door Interlocking Functionally, door interlocking helps maintain certain environmental standards for their exclusive unit needs. This is true, especially in manufacturing and R&D units. The benefits that accompany this feature are listed below: ● Reduction in contamination despite high-volume traffic ● Reduction in overall Manpower and maintenance cost ● Reduction in overall contamination including those of micro-biological and particulate nature Prevention of unauthorized as well as multiple entries Matrix Access Control Solution for Pharmaceutical Companies brings greater control over security within their facilities. Especially with its advanced access features, you can leverage the same access architecture. This helps to control entry and exit points throughout your important units requiring delicate environment control without additional devices. With decades of experience in the world market, Matrix leverages its active insight into the security needs of your organization. Read More

RISK MANAGEMENT: A CORE MILITARY SKILL – AN ESSENTIAL CORPORATE REQUIREMENT

MassMediaLink India LLP SecurityLink IndiaApril 22, 2025April 22, 2025017 mins

Colonel Arun HariharanVice President, National Head – Nodal,Security and EHS, Bharti Airtel Ltd What is Risk Management? The term Risk Management is loosely used both in the military as well as the corporate environs. It is nothing but something we do in our day to day lives, all the time – whether it is a decision to buy a new car, changing jobs or even a simple thing such as crossing the road. To put it across simply, Risk Management is the process of identifying, assessing, and controlling potential risks that could negatively impact an organization or project. These risks could arise from a wide range of sources, including financial uncertainties, legal liabilities, strategic management errors, accidents, natural disasters, cybersecurity threats, or operational failures. Effective risk management helps organizations minimize losses, protect assets, ensure compliance with regulations, maintain operational continuity, and enhance decision-making. In a rapidly changing and uncertain world, proactive risk management is vital for achieving long-term success. Let us now examine how this works in the military and in the corporate – the differences and the overlaps. Risk Management in the Military Risk management in the military is a systematic process used to identify, assess, and control risks associated with military operations, training, and other activities. Its primary goal is to preserve combat power, conserve resources, and increase operational effectiveness while minimizing unnecessary loss or damage. Military risk management typically follows a structured approach such as the U.S. Army’s 5-step model: 1. Identify hazards: Recognizing potential dangers in various military activities. 2. Assess hazards: Evaluating the likelihood and severity of identified hazards. 3. Develop controls and make risk decisions: Developing and implementing measures to reduce or eliminate risks, by using risk information to inform operational planning and execution. 4. Implement controls: Implementing strategies to minimize the risks. This could involve reducing the probability of the risk happening or lessening its impact if it does occur.5. Supervise and evaluate: Continuously tracking risks, reviewing the effectiveness of risk mitigation efforts, and adjusting strategies as needed. This process helps military leaders balance mission requirements with personnel and equipment safety, ensuring that risks are taken only when the potential benefits outweigh the possible losses. Risk Management in a Corporate Scenario vs the Military Risk management in the corporate world shares some similarities with military risk management, but there are notable differences in focus, scope and implementation. This stems from the basic purposes of both these organisations. Whereas, in the armed forces focus is on effective training, seamless logistics and winning wars, in a business enterprise it is about staying competitive in the market, generating profits, regulatory compliances, organisational reputation etc. Hence, though at a high level the process remains same there are nuanced differences. In simple terms, here’s how corporate risk management differs in the two fields: Parameter Corporate Military 1 Focus Primarily focused on financial risks, reputation, and business continuity. Centred on operational effectiveness andpreserving combat power. 2 Types of risks Market risks, credit risks, operational risks, legal/ compliance risks, strategic risks. Combat-related risks, equipment failures,personnel safety, mission failure. 3 Regulatory environment Governed by various laws and regulations (e.g., Unified Licence for telecom operators, RBI regulationsfor banks). Follows military doctrine and governmentregulations. 4 Stakeholders Shareholders, customers, employees, regulators. Government, soldiers, allies, civilians inoperational areas. 5 Risk appetite Often defined by board of directors, balancingrisk and reward for profit. Determined by mission objectives andstrategic importance. 6 Time horizon Can range from short-term to long-term, often with a focus on quarterly or annual results. Mission-specific, can be immediate (tactical)or long-term (strategic). 7 Tools and methodologies ERM framework, ISO 31000, financial modelling, scenario analysis. Specific military risk assessment tools,after-action reviews. 8 Reporting Regular risk reports to management, board, and sometimes public disclosures. Often classified, reported through chain of command. 9 Risk transfer Can use insurance, derivatives, or other financial instruments to transfer risk. Limited options for risk transfer; risks areusually managed internally. 10 Cultural aspects Risk culture varies widely between organizationsand industries. Strong emphasis on safety and operational security across the organization. 11 Consequences offailure Financial losses, reputational damage, legal liabilities. Potential loss of life, mission failure, national security implications. 12 Innovation andrisk-taking Often encourages calculated risk-taking for competitiveadvantage. Emphasizes following established protocols, with innovation focused on enhancing capabilities and safety. While both sectors endeavour to manage risks effectively, the corporate world generally has more flexibility in its approach and can often take on more risks in pursuit of profits. The military, given its critical role in national security and catastrophic nature of failure, tends to be more conservative in its risk management practices. Transitioning Military Personnel and Risk Management as a Career Transitioning military personnel often possess skills such as leadership, decision-making under pressure, operational planning, and risk assessment – qualities that naturally align well with various subdomains of risk management. Hence risk management is a good career option for veterans seeking jobs in the business sector. The term Risk Management is loosely used both in the military as well as the corporate environs. It is nothing but something we do in our day to day lives, all the time – whether it is a decision to buy a new car, changing jobs or even a simple thing such as crossing the road Based on exposure to the sector, here are some recommended subdomains and related industries that could be a good fit: Operational Risk Management ● Fit: Veterans excel in understanding and mitigating risks tied to processes and operations. ● Industries: – Manufacturing. – Logistics and Supply Chain. – Aviation and Aerospace. – Healthcare (hospitals, emergency services). Security Risk Management ● Fit: Military backgrounds provide excellent training in physical security, threat assessment, and protection. ● Industries: – Corporate Security– Critical Infrastructure(telecom, energy, water, utilities).– Event Management.– Financial Institutions(fraud, cybercrime prevention). Cybersecurity Risk Management ● Fit: Many veterans come from IT, communications, or intelligence backgrounds and can transition well into cybersecurity roles. ● Industries: – Technology and Software Development. – Telecommunications . – Financial Services. – Healthcare (patient data protection).

Yenepoya University is a full-fledged private University of higher education located in Deralakatte, Mangaluru, Karnataka, India. The upgrade of education delivery through Hikvision’s interactive display created a unique case study. The university installed the Hikvision’s 75-Inch 4K Interactive Display (DS-D5B75RB/C), 86-inch 4K Interactive Display (DS-D5B86RB/C). India’s Yenepoya Institute of Arts, Science, Commerce, and Management faced difficulties in ensuring efficient educational delivery. Its reliance on blackboards restricted the dynamic and interactive presentation of course materials. This made it hard for students, especially those sitting at the back of large rooms, to follow along during lectures. The issue became more pressing with the rise of e-learning, demanding more engaging and flexible ways to present information. This was especially true for science subjects, where students need to see complex concepts clearly explained visually. To solve this, the Institute set up 46 interactive display panels in classrooms and seminar halls. The screens facilitate seamless content sharing through a simple QR code scan. In auditoriums, supplementary screens were installed on both sides. Lecturers are now able to mirror content effortlessly onto both primary and secondary screens without any lag. This innovation ensured uninterrupted access to educational content for all students, regardless of their seating arrangements. It fostered inclusivity and enhanced engagement. The interactive screens proved particularly advantageous for science education.

Reframing the Virtual Production: From Green Screens to LED Backdrops

MassMediaLink India LLP SecurityLink IndiaApril 22, 2025April 22, 202506 mins

What if you could create a stunning desert landscape or an alien world in real-time? No need to wait for hours of post-production. Productions like The Mandalorian have highlighted this new frontier, where the line between physical and virtual worlds is becoming increasingly blurred. Today, a major shift is taking place – moving from traditional green screens to immersive LED backdrops. The legacy and limitations of green screens Green screens have long been a cornerstone of filmmaking, enabling breathtaking scenes and unseen galaxies to come to life in post-production. However, they also introduce challenges like color spill and uneven lighting. As most creative crews know, addressing shadows, green tones, and precise color keying is time-consuming, often stretching both budgets and patience. For actors, performing against a blank green stage can be disengaging. It disconnects them from the authenticity of their craft. It’s not easy to work up subtle reactions to surroundings that will exist only later. Additionally, compositing work, such as matching lights, removing color spill, and refining edges, requires painstaking effort. Each pixel demands attention, adding pressure to both timelines and production costs. The rise of LED backdrops These disadvantages have, however, been overcome by filmmakers and studios as the usage of LED technology is becoming more common. Rich in detail, adaptable, and vibrant, LED screens have opened a fresh level of filmmaking immersion. LED screens allow dynamic landscapes to be projected, creating the feeling of a real set. Actors can interact with their surroundings, while directors and camera operators capture shots with clarity that previously required post-production. Moreover, LED screens blend seamlessly with real- world lighting. Costumes beam naturally under a desert sun, as reflective surfaces may capture neon skies and radiate light in truly realistic ways, already helping out the visual workload but also empowering the all-around realism of every shot. The most amazing thing is the flexibility. Switching from a futuristic city to a lush forest or creating an alien world can be done instantly. Filmmakers no longer need to build elaborate sets and then dismantle them, saving time and resources. Real-world transformations: Elevating studio production with advanced LED solutions Media24, South Africa’s leading media company, faced limitations with traditional studio setups. Physical backdrops were time-intensive to set up and lacked flexibility during shoots. What if you could create a stunning desert landscape or an alien world in real-time?
