What Does Physical Security Mean for a Building?
Building physical security refers to the measures and systems put in place to protect a building and its occupants from unauthorized access, theft, vandalism, or other potential threats. This involves securing the premises, implementing access control, monitoring the activities within the building, and ensuring the safety of its occupants.
Traditional security systems are isolated and hold you back from experiencing the benefits of a better building. These systems – often a patchwork of hardware and software – struggle to work together to reduce breaches, injuries, response times, and the risk of cyberattacks. In short, they are unable to create valuable efficiencies on their own. But it doesn’t have to be that way. Integration can change everything and make security systems a cornerstone of smart buildings. Why are smart buildings so valuable? Because they offer new levels of data-driven and sensor-enabled performance through deep system integration, predictive and condition-based maintenance, optimized efficiency and increased resilience and security.
Products like Verkada are designed to help building managers and security personnel maintain a high level of building security. Verkada is a company that offers cloud-based security camera systems, access control systems, and environmental sensors, among other solutions. These products can help building managers in the following ways:
Video surveillance: Verkada’s security cameras provide high-quality video footage and can be easily managed through a cloud-based platform. This allows building managers to monitor the premises in real-time and review recorded footage when needed. Advanced features like motion detection and AI-powered analytics can also help identify potential security threats more effectively.
Access control: Verkada’s access control systems enable building managers to control who can enter the building and specific areas within it. By using key cards, fobs, or mobile apps, access can be granted or restricted based on employee roles or schedules, providing a secure and customizable solution.
Environmental monitoring: Verkada’s environmental sensors monitor various aspects of the building’s environment, such as temperature, humidity, air quality, and occupancy. This helps building managers maintain a safe and comfortable environment for occupants and can also be used to optimize energy efficiency.
Centralized management: The cloud-based platform offered by Verkada allows building managers to monitor and control all aspects of their security system from a single dashboard. This makes it easier to manage security across multiple locations and simplifies the process of reviewing footage, managing access.
