Has anyone tweaked their PACS (physical access control system) to optimize for a hybrid office? Any best practices to share for assessment (e.g., forms) and implementation?

We did extend our automated deactivate from 2.5 weeks to 4 weeks in USA. PreCovid we had it at 10 days since so few USA employees take more than 5 days of vacation. I don’t know what our European settings are but probably longer

That’s auto deactivation from no use. If an employee is terminated or quits we immediately deactivate the security card<br><br>We need to be able to edit posts. ;)

We are planning to migrate from Cherwell (ITSM) to FreshWorks (FreshService & FreshDesk) and I am looking for feedback and guidance on your experiences. We are currently planning to use Flycast as our implementer. We hope to stick to the out of the box processes as much as possible; very interested in where you decided to deviate or heavily configure changes.

What is the most interesting/helpful/unique tool you're using right now that no one is talking about?

We're mandated to allocate IT costs to the service level, but this creates friction with Identity & Access Management (IAM). The issue: non-negotiable security costs (MFA, SSO, governance) often exceed the cost of low-value services they protect (e.g., internal portals), leading to business owner pushback. How have you addressed this "Low-Value Service Paradox"? Do you keep foundational SSO/basic provisioning as corporate overhead or allocate everything? Do you use risk- or value-weighted allocation to subsidize essential, low-cost services? Who owns the final decision on allocation formulas—Finance, CIO Council, or Security? Please share specific solutions and governance models that have made IAM cost allocation fair and sustainable.

To what extent do you agree or disagree with this statement: I'd prefer to leverage existing on-prem compliance, policies, controls and knowledge for cloud workloads over rebuilding security and compliance in the cloud.
