When an armed student trespasses, how do you minimize risk?
Connect your technology and staff to swiftly identify threats, prevent unauthorized school entry and coordinate with law enforcement for rapid response.
Safer outcomes require a unified approach
When safety is at stake, people and technologies must come together to detect, respond and resolve incidents.
Detect

Reports and evidence are shared with school officials and local prosecutors
Officers generate an incident report and record witness statements and their narratives.
