Some of Control is gated by security doors that you need Clearance Level cards to access.  These cards can be found in different spots throughout the game.  This guide will explain where you can get each Security Card in Control to bypass the locked security doors.  There are six different Clearance Levels in Control and you’ll encounter the cards at different spots in the game.  Sometimes it will be obvious that you’ve gotten a card as it is given to you in a conversation with an NPC, but others you’ll need to seek out the cards to use them.

Here’s where you’ll find all Clearance Level Cards in Control

How to Get Clearance Level 1
