For decades, physical security, the safeguarding of people and assets in the real world, relied on a mix of physical barriers, human guards, and intrusion sensors. While these traditional methods still have their place, the rise of cloud technology is changing how we secure our buildings, assets, and staff. We’re seeing an explosion of cloud applications in security, and a fast-paced evolution in cloud standards and expectations. Cloud software applications are not only adding value to security systems today but have become a driving force in innovation.

Providing more than just simple convenience, this enables faster response times via powerful multichannel notifications that equip security personnel with the information they need when they need it.
