The Internet of Things (IoT) can make healthcare facility security smarter and more efficient than ever before, according to an article on the Campus Safety website.
Emerging IoT technology and Programmable Logic Devices (PLDs) are showing promise to help healthcare facilities minimize threats and address emergency situations.
IoT-enabled solutions allow facilities to connect technologies from different areas of security — from perimeter video surveillance to internal access control — and provide real-time alerts.
When a video surveillance device communicates with an access control system, it allows administrators access to instantaneous updates on potential threats.
