Your cybersecurity choices matter

A practical guide to a cyber resilient security infrastructure

Choose innovative security with built-in protection

A physical security system is as secure as the weakest point or the least trusted device connected to it. It’s that simple. Selecting vendors that build their business on best-in-class cybersecurity practices can make all the difference. Vendors with a multi-layered software security model have cyber-resilience embedded from the design phase to quality assurance, and across their entire R&D process. At each stage, security experts and designers assess how new features and capabilities could impact the integrity of your infrastructure.

Key considerations to build a comprehensive physical security strategy based on a multi-layered software security model

Confidentiality

Rely on advanced encryption, authorization, and authentication methods to protect your data and prevent it from falling into the wrong hands.

Integrity

Ensure that your data isn’t tampered with by adding watermarking and digital signature features on your video recordings.

Availability

Implement disaster recovery and health monitoring features to ensure that your data remains available at all times and that every component in the system is intact.

"In the past, staying on top of vulnerability patching, software updates, and just managing those environments was challenging. When the vendor handles the bulk of that, it saves us time and offers us more reliability."
