Key control, or more accurately the lack of key control is one of the biggest risks that businesses face.
What is the risk?
Imagine, you have fired a trusted employee, unknown to you that person had a spare key to your business, they come back after hours and steal business secrets, account lists, equipment or anything else of value. Would this scenario hurt your business?
Even if the person turned in all of the keys they had been given, can you be sure they did not have a duplicate made?
Even worse, a current trusted employee could be stealing from you.
