Taking a Closer Look at AI-Enabled, Cloud-Based Physical Security

More and more enterprises are opting to combine their video security and access control systems into a seamless, integrated and centralized cloud-based management platform. And with good reason. The benefits are appealing to users looking to lower their upfront investment costs, not to mention their ongoing maintenance costs. Cloud-based physical security allows them to consolidate their access control and video surveillance expenditures into one simple monthly subscription cost, paying as they go and only for what they need. And, they can also say sayonara to managing and maintaining their systems.

With a centralized cloud-based management platform, users can simultaneously monitor door-based events with correlated video footage across their organization in real-time. Some of the key benefits of cloud-based security systems is that they protect an enterprise from cyber threats, guard against internal threats, and prevent data loss.

So what exactly is cloud security? Simply stated, it’s a set of control-based safeguards and technology protections designed to secure resources stored online from leakage, theft, or data loss. Security applications operate as software in the cloud using a Software as a Service (SaaS) model. Various methods are used for protection. Among them, firewalls, which are a mainstay of cloud architecture. Access controls are also used to protect data by allowing the user to set access authorization lists for different assets. This helps to keep critical and sensitive documents from malicious insiders or hackers with stolen credentials. Protecting data while it’s in transit is another key step. Data security methods span virtual private networks (VPNs), encryption, or masking. VPNs enable remote employees to connect to corporate networks via their computer or smartphone. Data masking is a process that encrypts identifiable information and maintains data integrity by keeping important information private. Threat intelligence serves to spot security threats and rates them in order of importance. And, disaster recovery is another critical component, as it assists in recovering data that’s been lost or stolen.

A cloud-based access control solution is designed to bring plug-and-play simplicity to managing doors, users and credentials across an organization. In terms of video surveillance, hybrid cloud video security cameras leverage powerful on-board processing to deliver advanced AI analytics insights.
