Entry and Exit Route Reconnaissance

A subject identifies or assesses routes through which they or another person could enter, leave, or move through an organizational facility while reducing the likelihood of challenge or detection.

The subject may observe loading areas, emergency exits, service corridors, shared tenant spaces, stairwells, parking access points, delivery entrances, maintenance routes, or locations with limited physical security coverage. They may also assess whether doors are routinely propped open, whether exit routes permit re-entry, or whether movement between zones can occur without an additional credential check.

The behavior may indicate preparation to bypass normal entry controls, facilitate unauthorized third-party access, remove assets, or move between restricted areas without creating a complete access record.
