Which capability do Authorized Signatories have when using IDMS?

• A. Electronically file badge application forms.
• B. Electronically file badge application forms, complete badge audits, request vehicle permits, keys and schedule appointments.
• C. Only issue badges manually.
• D. Draw up security protocols.

Answer: (B)

Managing the badge lifecycle end-to-end in IDMS is what Authorized Signatories are empowered to do. They can file badge application forms electronically, creating a traceable, auditable submission record. They can perform badge audits to verify that each badge holder’s access matches approvals and policies, helping maintain accuracy and compliance. They can also request vehicle permits, keys, and schedule appointments, linking access requests to facilities and security workflows. This combination supports efficient onboarding, ongoing governance, and centralized control over who can access what and when. The other options are narrower or misaligned: filing forms alone misses audits and resource requests; issuing badges manually bypasses the digital workflow; and drawing up security protocols is a broader governance task not focused on executing badge and access actions within IDMS.
