Computerised Maintenance Management Systems schedule, track, and record all maintenance activity for physical assets — from manufacturing equipment to hospital medical devices — and the work-order workflows and technician access they manage can, if compromised, result in delayed maintenance, falsified records, or physical equipment failures with safety and regulatory consequences. Zero Trust access controls for CMMS deployments enforce maintenance contractor identity verification, time-limited access windows for specific work orders, and immutable audit trails required by ISO 55001 asset management standards and FDA equipment maintenance regulations.
