Grow your system over time Confidently scale to hundreds of devices or expand your operations to other campuses. Start with video surveillance and integrate new security and business systems when needed. You can also improve campus life and security by developing custom applications with existing systems. Protect student privacy Use built-in video redaction capabilities to blur out the faces of students, faculty, and guests in video frames. Your team can easily monitor, conduct investigations, or share video while still ensuring the highest levels of individual privacy. Enhance response efficiency Program alarms and define response strategies in advance for certain situations. If an intruder breaks into a building for example, selecting an active threat level will trigger the system to guide your team through the right steps so they can quickly make decisions that lead to a resolution. Save storage using the cloud Instead of buying and maintaining more servers, you can expand your on-premises storage by using cloud archiving. It's an easier and more affordable way to keep video for longer periods, set up redundant recording for disaster recovery, or store video from a growing number of cameras including body-wearable devices. Monitor security from anywhere Build one or many central control rooms and access all your systems from any location. Provide system privileges to other departments who can manage their own tasks and responsibilities. They can then handle tasks such as managing cardholders or monitoring access control in their buildings. Make more informed decisions Use the information being collected by your unified platform to better understand your environment. Detect patterns on how people access and move through your campus and facilities and use this information to develop strategies that maximize the use of space and keep everyone safe. Key benefits of a unified security platform for higher education campuses How a 560-acre downtown campus manages security and parking from one platform Brigham Young University (BYU) is the third largest privately-owned university in the United States. After using the Security Center AutoVu™ automatic license plate recognition (ALPR) system to track vehicles and enforce parking, BYU began slowly bringing all their security and parking systems under the Security Center platform. Today, the security team at BYU manages 1500 cameras, 27 ALPR cameras, 2000 doors, 10,000 intrusion sensors, and 200 radios with GPS from a unified platform. Operators receive emergency calls, pull up live video, lock or unlock doors, and find the nearest officer on the ground, all from a map of the campus. With Security Center, the team now has everything they need at their fingertips to ensure the fastest and safest response to any emergency on campus.
