John Rezzonico, CEO of Edge 360 emphasizes the need for open platform approaches in a multi-layer perimeter security strategy. He believes that an open platform may supplement personnel by allowing for real-time monitoring, situation management, and assistance with investigative and forensic needs.
“From facing evolving terrorism threats and crime to complying with rules and regulations, perimeter security environments are high-risk and leave little room for error,” Rezzonico said. “Video surveillance technology is part of any multi-layer perimeter security strategy. It augments personnel and enables operators to effectively engage in real-time monitoring and situation management while supporting investigative and forensic needs. An open platform approach combined with integrating with other third-party systems allows organizations to benefit from other best-in-class technologies to promote a more robust security posture and permit a coordinated emergency response when necessary.”
