IP Video Helps Protect Our Nation's Schools!
In today's society where violence, theft and vandalism are an unfortunate reality within academic institutions from k-12 to universities, it has become essential to proactively provide a secure environment for students and employees alike.
School administrators now have the additional burden of securing their facilities without compromising their primary objective of providing students with an environment that is conducive to learning.
VideoProtein 3.0 is an effective and non-intrusive tool that helps academic institutions at all levels create safe environments for students, allowing school administrators to focus on education instead of security.
Cameras can be placed in strategic locations susceptible to acts of vandalism, intimidation or theft.
IP based solutions provide the flexibility to place cameras virtually anywhere. Using wireless technologies for example, cameras can easily be installed to monitor sports fields and parking areas. |

For video surveillance to be an effective tool to secure students and staff, video feeds need to be monitored by security professionals that can identify and respond to events in real-time. However, having staff onsite at each building or school may be financially restrictive for many institutions. IP Video Surveillance solutions such as VideoProtein 3.0 allow for the centralized surveillance of many buildings spread throughout a campus or spread across a large geographical territory.
With VideoProtein 3.0, school officials can view video from cameras at different campuses simultaneously. If a critical event occurs on campus, authorized personnel and local police can all access live video remotely, allowing these first responders to assess a situation before arriving onsite.

Such a centralized approach to security of multiple facilities requires a scalable solution. To meet this need, VideoProtein 3.0 allows for the easy expansion of any organization's security system one camera at a time, from one to tens of thousands of cameras, or any brand or type. An intuitive user interface allows users to add, configure and manage any component in the system. Regardless of your system's size or complexity, VideoProtein's easy to use interface ensures easy setup and access to your camera equipment.
This same architecture also eliminates any single point of failure, ensuring continuous reliable surveillance 24 hours a day, 365 days a year! |
To minimize the required financial investment even further, VideoProtein 3.0 can leverage existing IT infrastructure and any existing security equipment already in use. For example, many academic institutions have an IP network in place, which can be used to improve the transmission of security data and video.
Furthermore, VideoProtein 3.0's open architecture allows for integration with other systems, such as Access Control and Fire Alarm systems, as well as building control systems such as HVAC (heating, ventilating and air-conditioning). The resulting unified security interface greatly simplifies the operation of security technology and consequently frees up security personnel time so that they can focus on assessing and responding to events.
Video surveillance, although an effective and non-intrusive security technology, needs to respect the privacy of students, teachers, professors and staff. As a result, VideoProtein 3.0 utilizes the most sophisticated IT security technologies such as SSL encryption and digital signatures to prevent non-authorized individuals from accessing, viewing or modifying live or stored video. With these safeguards in place, school administrators don't need to worry about students hacking into the security system. Another benefit of these protective measures is that video files can be used as evidence in court.
Educational institutions at all levels that have implemented IP Video Surveillance have benefited from a reduction in vandalism, theft and violence. Clearly, administrators now have a powerful tool that can help improve the safety of employees and students alike while at the same time maintaining an environment that is conducive to learning and positive individual development.
IP Video Surveillance, the ideal tool to safeguard students and their future.
VideoProtein can also be used with in-classroom cameras to monitor any types of teaching or behavioral issues.
Are school curricula being taught effectively, or not at all? Teacher evaluators can observe at will while remaining unobtrusive. Having difficulties with a student?
Classrooms can be recorded as needed, or you can easily provide teachers with the ability to trigger recording whenever they want to, right from their classroom desk. |

Archived video can also be used to provide clear evidence in disciplinary situations. Relevant video can be easily clipped and shared with parents and teachers.
Getting Parents Involved
Parental participation can also be facilitated by having a video link sent directly to parents, allowing them to view video in real time. Busy parents also never need to miss their child's important events: selective camera access can be granted to parents and family members. VideoProtein 3.0 has an easy user management capability to quickly add and delete users, or limit access to specific cameras.
