Collage & Universities

Around the world, education institutions are challenged to find the balance between fostering an open and nurturing learning environment while also ensuring the safety of students, teachers, and staff. Thankfully, there is a company that can help. Lorenzo Security Consulting, SRL is assisting educational organizations achieve this balance with noticeable benefits.

Challange
Common issues associated with educational facilities, which are often multi-site, include vandalism and disruptive behavior, incursion from unwanted visitors and managing access levels. Not only are the typical security measures of surveillance and access control necessary for the protection of the student population, but also broad area real-time notification to student and faculty of an immediate danger is required. Special types of access controls for Student Housing and Special Events are common. Student ID's that also serve as access control credentials. Data integration with student databases and use of mobile card readers at school events have also become commonplace.

Solution
Integrated Access Control and Video Surveillance: Lorenzo Security Consulting, SRL provide complete integrated solutions for synchronizing Alarm Monitoring and Video surveillance. Using mobile alarm monitoring stations, officers can respond while viewing real-time video of an emergency situation. Our Access Control systems can lock down campus and only allow entry by authorized personnel in a crisis. Alarm messages can be broadcast over multiple annunciation technologies such as text messages, graphic displays, reverse 911 systems and even over existing fire alarm voice annunciation panels. Any unauthorized access attempts or movements in predefined fields of view will trigger an alarm that will be captured by cameras and then recorded onto the Digital Video Management System.

Even non-door devices such as podiums with electronic equipment inside, can be controlled by cards to restrict access and protect assets. You can use "Double Swipe" technology which allows faculty members to unlock and disarm classrooms on command without keypads or alarm panels.

Using Student ID credentials to access campus events: Using wireless mobile card reading solutions, students and faculty ID's can be checked for authorized entry to sporting and other events at mobile locations. The card record database can be automatically updated by the master Campus Student/Facility databases.
