Empowering School Safety with Adaptive Technology
Integrated security solutions protect students, streamline emergency response, and enhance campus safety
While student safety is often revered as a top priority, it isn’t uncommon for incident response protocols to be overlooked until a situation that warrants action occurs. Regardless of how unlikely it may seem to have a severe scenario unfold on campus, schools shouldn’t bet on that off chance before investing in security measures that protect students and faculty.
Verkada integrates video security, access control, and environmental monitoring into a single, cloud-based platform. This allows administrators to manage all security events from one centralized location. With a comprehensive view of health and safety incidents—such as vape detection, forced door entries, and unusual after-hours activity—schools can take a proactive approach to enhancing campus safety.
