Key Takeaway: Facility and perimeter security protects the locations where keys, backups, and signing devices live through layered access control, surveillance, environmental hardening, and secure room design.

This sub-section of the Physical Security framework will cover the controls that protect physical locations used for key storage and signing operations.

Planned topics include:

  • Layered access control (mechanical and electronic) for homes, offices, and data rooms
  • Surveillance and intrusion detection
  • Environmental controls (fire, flood, power, and climate) for backup and device storage
  • Secure room and safe design for high-value key material

Contributions are welcome. See the contributing guide to help expand this section.
