Exploring Physical Security as a Service

Understanding Security as a Service (SECaaS)

The "as a service" model has transformed various industries by offering goods and services through a convenient monthly subscription. This model provides continuous access to a service as long as the subscription is active, eliminating the need for ownership. Applying this to physical security, Physical Security as a Service (PSaaS) offers a comprehensive solution where you subscribe to a service that supplies all necessary security equipment and services for your organization.

Components of PSaaS

PSaaS covers multiple facets of physical security, including:

• Access Control: Key cards, biometric authentication, and video intercom systems.

• Video Surveillance: Installation and management of surveillance and recording systems, cameras with advanced features like facial recognition, video analytics, and remote monitoring.

• Intrusion Detection: Motion sensors, door/window sensors, glass-break detectors, and 24/7 monitoring and response services.

• Visitor Management: Efficient systems to monitor and manage visitor access.

• Incident Response: Immediate actions to handle security breaches.
