Do security monitoring services watch the school only during school hours, or all day?

Our state-of-the-art monitoring services are 24/7. This around-the-clock monitoring ensures your school will be watched by professionals no matter the time of day. We look for weather concerns, power outages, break-ins, or other disruptions to the school building.

What qualifications are needed to monitor school security? 

All of our monitoring professionals are certified in security monitoring. In addition, we offer ongoing staff training and maintain cutting-edge technology solutions to ensure we deliver the highest level of service. 

Our remote monitoring teams have a Five Diamond Accreditation from The Monitoring Association, representing our commitment to inspections, customer service, training, industry participation, and reduced false alarms.  

How do you report your findings?

We work with each customer to determine the proper next steps, including alerting the relevant authorities and school leaders. In addition, we can send alerts by email or text regarding the situation and the recommended course of action. 

What types of things do you monitor for? 

Our team will monitor for power outages, system weather damage, security concerns, fire alarms, or any other alarm as needed. If there are system concerns, we will work to send maintenance teams out for quick repair.

What type of security equipment do you use for monitoring services?

We use modern security cameras with ultra-high-definition video quality and analytics to ensure we receive the most accurate information. This technology helps to cut down on the number of false alarms. Our cameras are also integrated with AI technology to recognize anomalies quickly. 

In addition, we utilize a range of sensors to call immediate attention to concerns. These sensors include motion, contact, and environmental sensors and monitor movement, presence, or dangers such as smoke or carbon monoxide.

When there is a concern, such as a break-in or vandalism, our team can piece together the timeline and severity of the situation by using data from the cameras paired with the sensors. This compilation of information helps us put together a complete picture of the activity and reduce the occurrence of false alarms.
