Level Security Systems, a developer of a new breed of unified,
networked security solutions,today announces Orange County,
Fla., has deployed the NLSS Gateway as a unified management platform for
a security upgrade that will incorporate multiple public safety sites.
Orange County, Fla., is a dynamic and growing municipality with a 2010
population of 1,145,956. A popular tourist and business destination,
Orange County is home to Walt Disney World Resorts, Universal Studios
Orlando, Sea World and the Orange County Convention Center. County
officials began searching for a security platform to help manage
disparate systems in facilities throughout the county, including the
Orange County Courthouse. Orange County also sought to leverage an
IP-based system to streamline communication, reduce complex integration
and have the option to remotely manage its security infrastructure
remotely.
"Orange County is focused on providing the highest level of security to
our residents, employees and visitors. We look to leverage technology
that helps us deliver the right information, to the right people, at the
right time." said Peter Miller, Chief Security Officer, Orange County.
"Analytics allow us to provide more security, with less staffing, saving
money. We strive to provide low cost solutions that can run on low cost
maintenance with high quality returns."
Orange County is leveraging the NLSS Gateway to capture video
surveillance, run analytics and manage access control at county cell
towers, the courthouse and other facilities. The county also plans to
expand use of the system to its correctional facilities in the near
future. Information from the video and access systems is immediately
correlated through the integrated appliance approach, providing users
with a complete view of the overall system. Video analytics, built-in to
the NLSS Gateway at no additional cost, enable the county's security and
IT teams to quickly identify potential security incidents, while Next
Level Remote Management Services (RMS) provides users with remote access
and management of the system from any Web-enabled device. Overall, the
system will manage a network of hybrid analog and IP cameras, including
Arecont Vision megapixel cameras. Captured video is stored on an EMC
storage platform.
"Growing municipalities such as Orange County need security solutions
that are flexible and scalable, and the NLSS Gateway enables the county
to quickly and easily expand the security infrastructure as its risk
profile evolves," said Peter Jankowski, Chairman and CEO, Next Level
Security Systems. "Furthermore, the integrated appliance approach
provides access to the entire security system, including integrated
video and access control, from a single user interface. When information
from these systems is immediately correlated, security teams are
provided with the data needed to make informed decisions to best enhance
security and limit potential incidents."
