Security-Net announces the addition of Strategic Security Solutions

  • Jan 27, 2022

Security-Net Inc. is welcoming Strategic Security Solutions, a commercial security integrator focused on providing security solutions to commercial entities, universities, critical infrastructure and healthcare facilities, to its membership.

One of four additions to the Security-Net membership within the past month, Strategic Security Solutions joins as the 19th member company and marks a period of fast growth for the organization.

Jay Slaughterbeck, CEO of Strategic Security Solutions, will serve as the member representative for the company. He began his career in the security industry directly out of high school and possesses a keen understanding of security integration developed during his more than 20 years of experience.

“We provide a service for our clients that extends beyond installing cameras and card readers. As true integrators, our goal is to solve problems, tighten security and streamline processes for our end-user customers,” Slaughterbeck said.

Founded in 2001, Strategic Security Solutions originated as a division of a structured wiring company called Strategic Connections. In 2011, the division became a standalone organization focused solely on security integration. The company has seen tremendous growth in recent years and operates offices out of Pittsburgh and Lynchburg, Va., in addition to its Raleigh, N.C. headquarters. With 33 employees, Strategic Security Solutions primarily serves clients in commercial, university, healthcare and critical infrastructure markets.

“Strategic Security Solutions has worked with many of our Security-Net partners over the years and the company is known for its focused perspective on security integration,” said John Krumme of Security-Net. “We look forward to furthering this work and their contribution to our shared best practices.”

Slaughterbeck added that he is enthusiastic to provide a positive impact on the industry as a whole, and to learn from security industry professionals who are a part of Security-Net. Additionally, the added regional representation in the mid-Atlantic and southeast concurrently provided by Strategic Security Solutions expands the networks’ ability to deploy and fulfill national account needs.

It also saves time, which is a critical factor if a missing child is involved. Video compression technology has played a critical role as well. Over the years, significant advancements have been made in video coding standards — including H.263, MPEG formats, and H.264—alongside compression optimization technologies developed by IP video manufacturers to improve efficiency without sacrificing quality. The open-source AV1 codec developed by the Alliance for Open Media—a consortium including Google, Netflix, Microsoft, Amazon and others — is already the preferred decoder for cloud-based applications, and is quickly becoming the standard for video compression of all types.
