No matter what age group your educational institution instructs, you know as a leader that safety is the number one priority. You must have a safe and secure environment for students to learn and thrive. It’s also important for your staff to feel safe. School violence has been on the rise for years, giving a lot of people anxiousness and doubts about the safety of schools. With a security system, you can help alleviate some of those doubts and relieve anxiousness. Read more about security in schools below. A school security system is the measures, processes, software, and hardware used to create a safe learning environment. These measures could include security cameras in schools, door alarms, or other door security devices. A security system is usually complex and designed to mitigate the unique risks found in the education industry. Schools of all sizes, from K-12 to universities, face a variety of risks. With a lot of people coming and going at all times, it can be a challenge to address the security risks. The most common risks for educational facilities include: You must have a way to control who is visiting your school. This is much harder to do on a college campus because there are so many buildings. K-12 schools are a bit easier to control access to the building. Unauthorized visitors pose a ton of threats to your school, students, and staff. They could have ill intentions, become violent, or even worse. You must have a security system that includes a way to control and monitor access to your property. Theft and vandalism are impactful risks most schools face. Of the reported crimes on college campuses, 33% were theft. There are several ways a security system could prevent these crimes. First, a surveillance system would help to deter theft. Those who aim to steal are less likely to try when they know they are being watched and recorded. Many security systems offer 24/7 monitoring so your school is always protected. Second, access control would record each entrance into your facility. This is also a way to control crimes because you can determine who is allowed in specific areas. Access control is a great way to secure assets and dorms. And lastly, people are less likely to commit any crime if they know the school has a security system. Simply putting up signs and warnings that the school is protected can be enough to prevent some incidents. Educational facilities are targets of cyber threats. Their networks hold a lot of personal students, family, and educational information. It’s vital your security system recognizes and addresses potential cyber threats. A few of the most common are: Schools of all kinds must have a comprehensive security system in place to protect against these threats. The network on a college campus is large with a high number of people utilizing it. You must have cybersecurity as an aspect of your system. You may be wondering what is included in the security for schools. And the answer is complicated. At TTD Security Systems, we create each security system tailor-made to fit the needs of each client. Your security system may include the following elements: An access control system helps you to control who enters your buildings or other spaces. TTD Security Systems uses two types of access control: card and biometric readers. A card reader uses a device to scan cards to either approve or deny entry. The database records every transaction so you are alerted to any suspicious activities. You can easily and quickly update access to remove or add a new user. A biometric reader is much the same. This device reads a person’s retinas, hands, or fingertips to allow or deny entry. The first step in safeguarding your school is perimeter protection. This solution uses fences, lighting, signage, sensors, and gates to control who has access to your property. This is a great way to prevent many potential intruders. As much as we’d like to install a security system and have it run perfectly forever, that is unrealistic. To keep your system functioning properly, it needs regular maintenance. This is to make sure your equipment works correctly and to update outdated software or hardware. TTD Security Systems also offers repair services. Sometimes, a part of your security system will quit working. This could be due to faulty equipment, a needed update, or some other factor. Our technicians are available the same day, so if your system does go down, we can quickly get it back in working condition. A surveillance system is an important element of most security systems. TTD Security Systems uses digital surveillance that captures high-resolution and crystal-clear images. The features of our surveillance camera include: You can easily access live cameras or previous footage from a mobile or remote device. This allows you to check in and make sure your school is safe even when you can’t be there. Fiber optics and data cabling are important for many security systems. This solution allows your network to connect with high speeds and high performance without impacting your security. We offer data cabling, installation, and certification for up to and including category eight. We employ FOA-certified technicians for our fiber optic solution. They install, terminate, splice, test, and service fiber optic cables. There are many benefits of security in schools.
