Getting high-resolution cameras installed is usually the first step in any school security solution. But many schools fail to implement a plan for reviewing camera footage. Without a plan, those hallway cameras become security theater. Thousands of hours of recorded footage go unseen until after a tragedy occurs.

Educational institutions across the country are under increasing pressure to enhance campus safety via visible security measures.

Understanding the distinction between symbolic tactics and substantive school security solutions is the first step toward making smarter, more effective choices for students and faculty at your Brownsville, TX, campus.
