Standalone security components, individual cameras, alarms, or entry systems are no longer sufficient for today’s complex security needs. Integrated security systems, combining surveillance, access control, intrusion detection, and even audio/visual (AV) management, have become essential.

Integration provides a unified view of security operations, improving situational awareness and response time. For example, when an unauthorized entry triggers an alarm, integrated systems can automatically focus cameras on the location, alert security personnel instantly, and broadcast emergency notifications via integrated AV systems.
