Secure storage device
A closure lid attached to a secure storage device for storing material is provided. The closure lid attaches to a storage device that may include a container having a void for external access to the interior space. The closure lid, similarly dimensioned according to the void may be joined to the container and can be manipulated between an open or closed state by utilizing locking tabs. The closure lid may provide an airtight tight without utilizing a vacuum pump. Locking tabs may deploy and retract in the closure lid; the locking tabs may deploy and retract when a one-step operation of applying pressure to the closure lid and turning a control ring clockwise engages and disengages the locking tabs. An access control system is configured to present an input, validate user input, and permit a state change of the lock.
