Server Rm Log even necessary?
I would like to ask the experts why they think a server room log is important aside from the reason that they have to comply with industry compliance like ITIL, ISO or SOX. Is the server room log even necessary if you have video surveillance/motion capture (stored up to 45 days) and FOB key access limited to authorized personnel? And it would be great too if you have some real life experience to share on how the server room log was beneficial? Was there any reason that anyone had to go back to the server room log to check who was in there longer than 45 days? Thank you all.

yeah we do both escorted and unescorted. We are small in terms of staff so we cant escort the vendor all day if they need to be in the server room for extended period of time. Plus our server room also houses our facilities security/fire/alarm equipment and they have people go in to the server room working on non-server room related matters. I think the server room log also gives us visibility/detail on the type of work being done inside the server room such as how often equipment's are being worked on or pm'ed that could be indicators that some things need more attention.
