Physical security assessment and testing in Joliette
Lanaudière’s regional capital, Joliette has a hospital, a CEGEP, retail and manufacturing companies.
Cybersecurity ends where someone can walk into the server room with a smile and a box of donuts. Altea assesses the physical security of your buildings: perimeter, doors and hardware, access control system and card type, key management, camera coverage, telecom room and reception procedures. On request, we also run physical penetration tests: tailgating, card cloning, pretext access. As an access control integrator, we can also fix what we find.
What we test in Joliette
- Perimeter, entrance and parking walkthrough
- Doors, frames, strikes, closers and door alarms
- Access control: configuration, schedules, stale accounts
- Cards and fobs: technology and cloning risk
- Key and master-key management

Frequently asked questions
Do you work in Joliette?
Joliette is about 80 km from our office. We work there regularly: visits are planned ahead and work is grouped to keep travel costs down.
How much does a physical security assessment cost in Joliette?
Price depends on the number of buildings, entrances and sensitive areas, and the tests authorized (walkthrough only or physical penetration test). The quote for Joliette is free.
Is the physical test unannounced?
That’s agreed with management: announced or not, with an authorization letter carried by the team on site.
Can you fix the weaknesses you find?
Yes, Altea installs access control, intercoms, cameras and door hardware.
Can our access cards be copied?
125 kHz proximity cards, still very common, are easy to copy with cheap hardware. Encrypted smart cards (such as MIFARE DESFire) and mobile credentials are far more resistant. The assessment identifies what you use.
