Mass Notification Systems for Schools
School safety has never been more important. In an era where timely and effective communication can make all the difference, …
Your surveillance and security systems are only as strong as their weakest component. Outdated hardware, unsupported software, or a lack of maintenance can leave you exposed to performance issues, security breaches, and compliance violations.
Ask yourself these 7 critical questions to evaluate the health of your current setup:
Cameras and other system components have a limited lifespan. If your equipment is no longer supported by the manufacturer, you’re at risk of missing crucial firmware updates and security patches. This can create major vulnerabilities in your network.
Microsoft officially ended support for Windows 10 in October 2025. Many recording devices still rely on this OS, which means you could be using unsupported software without realizing it. That’s a serious risk—and a clear sign it might be time to upgrade.
Most systems are installed for reactive use—reviewing footage after an incident. But with modern tech, proactive monitoring (like real-time alerts, automated analytics, or Virtual Guard Services) can help prevent issues before they happen. Is your system doing enough?
AI-powered surveillance tools can detect motion, identify unusual behavior, recognize license plates, and more. If you’re not using AI—or not using it effectively—you may be missing out on major efficiency and safety gains.
You may have invested in a robust system, but are you using all its features? From remote access and video analytics to cloud storage and system integrations, make sure you’re maximizing your ROI.
Just like any critical system, surveillance technology needs regular updates and maintenance. If it’s been a while since your last PM or firmware upgrade, your system may be falling behind—or worse, breaking down without warning.
Are you prepared when something fails? Do you have a trusted partner for support, repairs, or upgrades? A proactive service plan helps reduce downtime and keeps your security infrastructure reliable and secure.
