Keeping an Eye on Secure Access

Having created an integration between their products Gallagher Command Centre and SeeTec Cayuga, Gallagher Security, leading manufacturer of intruder alarm and command center solutions, and SeeTec, pioneer in video management software, announce a technology partnership. The connection of both software products enables customers to evaluate situations based on a synopsis of event and video data, allowing a faster and more targeted response to critical incidents. Thus, SeeTec Cayuga can receive and display events from Gallagher Systems, for instance “access granted” or “door opened”. In return, live and archive videos from cameras operated with SeeTec Cayuga can be displayed in Gallagher Command Centre, including the possibility to control PTZ cameras.

Since there is a clear trend of applications in security ecosystems growing together more and more, the technology partnership is a further important step towards providing integrated security solutions. Kaj Svenningson, VP Business Development at SeeTec, is happy about this new level of cooperation, stating “Especially in Middle East and Asia we see rapidly growing project sizes. Installations with thousands of cameras have become the new standard, and especially those projects require an overall view, which combines information from various subsystems.” Rob Hughes, Product Manager - Custom Solutions at Gallagher, adds: " The integration of SeeTec increases operational efficiency by ensuring Command Centre operators have the critical information they require for incident management readily available within the one system."
