Online Exclusive: Building Security Management: Is the Cloud a Viable Option?

Now, the understanding of cloud technology and its value are clear, but safety often comes into question for security professionals.

How Safe is Your Campus?

Effective campus security consists of more than just a budget line-item and the proverbial “knocking on wood” in today’s day and age.

The Building Blocks

Educational institutions face an increasing risk environment. Recent high-profile incidents emphasize these risks and magnify the vulnerabilities that educational facilities face. This has led to an increase in public demand for improved security solutions across campuses. K-12 schools, early-learning institutions, and higher education alike strive to meet the safety expectation of all stakeholders.

Holiday Precautions

With the holidays upon us, there is no better time to start implementing these safety measures.

Plan of Action

As concerns for campus safety rapidly rise within higher education communities, it is important to implement a proactive plan as the first step to acknowledging your security needs. By preparing a communications system and plan of action prior to an incident, the effectiveness and response of your team can be better executed. By incorporating emergency communication products, a campus can ready itself by providing prominent crime deterrents, self-help options and a wide range of surveillance.

Extraordinary Protection

Following several high-profile incidents alleging abuse special needs students (including some non-communicative students), and the activism of a number of parent groups in the State of Texas, Governor Greg Abbott signed Texas Senate Bill 507, requiring districts to install audio and video surveillance equipment into select special education classrooms when requested.
