A SAFER, SMARTER CAMPUS WITH INTELLIGENT INFRASTRUCTURE
Pivot3 improves security effectiveness and simplifies IT operations in complex corporate, educational or federal campus environments, as well as connected buildings, retail, hotels, stadiums and event venues.
Overview
Designing, implementing and managing smart and safe spaces in environments such as universities, school districts, corporate and medical parks, and entertainment or retail complexes, begins with solid foundations in IT infrastructure. These campus environments are a diverse assortment of buildings, facilities, systems and grounds often situated on multiple acres, which presents unique challenges to security managers and IT teams. To overcome these challenges, organizations must design, specify and deploy a robust, easy-to-manage, and cost-effective security system that provides loss prevention
measures and enhanced protection capabilities for its visitors, employees, and students.
In modern campus environments, multiple security and integrated applications are deployed to ensure compliance, mitigate risk, prevent loss, protect the safety of people and ensure the security of its assets. Video cameras monitor daily activity, record incidents, and can serve as a general deterrent to suspicious or malicious behavior. Video management systems collect, record and provide access to video from cameras and other sources like access control systems, which prevent unauthorized intruders, while analytics applications aid in providing enhanced situational awareness, recorded video analysis, and unique services to further improve overall security and operational efficiency. An infrastructure that can support these diverse systems on a single platform, while balancing the demands for 24x7x365 mission-critical surveillance operations and IT cost efficiency is essential to maintaining safer, smarter campus environments
Improving Campus Safety and Security
An Intelligent Approach to Campus Video Surveillance and Security
To meet the demands of mission-critical campus environments, organizations require an intelligent infrastructure platform that is purpose-built to be secure, resilient, and manageable at scale. Pivot3 hyperconverged infrastructure (HCI) is optimized to support multiple mixed workloads such as video surveillance, analytics and integrated security applications on a common platform, which increases operational efficiency and lowers overall IT spending. Pivot3 HCI provides the performance, resilience, and scalability required to support Internet of Things (IoT) cameras and sensors, video management systems (VMS), access control, analytics applications and other IT software required to provide safe and secure campus environments.
