Physical security is a top priority for many organizations and governments. To help create a safe and secure environment, security personnel develop plans, train staff, and implement systems such as surveillance cameras, access controls, and paging and radio systems. These investments help to protect against threats from man-made and natural disasters. What’s more, they can be far more effective and can cost less to manage when tied together over an existing IP network. Benefits include earlier threat detection, faster response, and enhanced collaboration with local law enforcement organizations.

 

Unlike non-integrated point products, Cisco solutions provide end-to-end support to quickly detect incidents and correlate and prioritize key information, enabling faster and more effective collaboration among incident response personnel. Using the network as an open, scalable platform for integrating security helps to increase operational flexibility, improve protection capabilities, and reduce both risk and cost of ownership.
