Database Managment Systems

            This database is used to track Visitor Authorization Requests (VARs) to Sensitive Compartmented Information Facilities (SCIFs) operated by the National Reconnaissance Office (NRO) in the Colorado Springs Area. The database is designed to accommodate all visitor, including foreign nationals, into secure areas by providing a central location for information confirmation.
             This database encompasses all of the Colorado Springs area's to include Schriever AFB and several downtown facilities. Order of events for a VAR is very basic. The fist action is to load the Point of Contact or POC and the Authorizing Authority or AA in to the appropriate databases. Only a valid POC may submit a VAR for approval and only an AA may authorize a VAR that has been submitted. The POC submits a Visitor Authorization Request or VAR to the AA who then authorizes it. The VAR is then either approved or disapproved by the AA. Approved VARS are then submitted to Security Forces for access or denial of access. The database is broken into user groups to allow or disallow certain groups from viewing information that they might not have authorization to view. The Point of Contact see's the switchboard and they can only access the add point of contact button, they can then fill in their information and submit it, they do not have to log in to do this. It is then sent to the approving authority that authorizes the VAR. The approving authority has to log in to the database to access their portion because they are viewing sensitive information. The VAR's may also be pulled up depending on how active the approving authority is in processing the VAR request's. The approving authority will then make the determination if they approve or disapprove the visit and forward they VAR to the Security Forces. The Security Forces have a log on as well because they can, along with the approving authority run reports and queries on the database.
