As a government agency, you have a duty to keep your facilities, people, and sensitive data secure. At the same time, you are expected to be a responsible steward of tax dollars, budgeting wisely to maintain the best security systems you can with the resources you have. This is no easy task: security in government organizations can often be complex, with multiple systems in place to protect against a variety of threats.

And all those systems–plus the people hired to monitor them–can add up. That’s why one of the most effective decisions you can make to strengthen your security is to integrate your systems, bringing together alarm monitoring, video surveillance, access control, and more. This means linking together dozens or even hundreds of different sensors, alarms, security devices, computer systems, and even legacy systems to gain a centralized overview of your security posture.
