The safety of students, staff, and school premises is a top priority for educational institutions across Australia. With evolving security challenges, such as unauthorised intrusions, vandalism, bullying, and the protection of sensitive areas, schools need robust, reliable, and scalable security solutions. Kada, a leading provider of advanced security systems, has partnered with Verkada to offer cutting-edge technology that ensures smarter and safer learning environments for Australian schools.
Schools today face a multitude of security concerns, ranging from controlling access to protecting vast campuses. Whether it’s a primary school, a secondary school, or a large university, having an effective security system in place is essential for:
Traditional CCTV systems, which often rely on outdated technology, can be expensive to maintain, hard to scale, and inefficient at providing real-time updates. Schools need a modern security solution that offers flexibility, advanced features, and ease of use—this is where Kada and Verkada come in.
Kada has partnered with Verkada, a leader in cloud-based security, to offer schools across Australia a smarter, more reliable security solution. Verkada’s systems are designed to be scalable, efficient, and simple to use, enabling schools to monitor their campuses more effectively while ensuring data privacy and compliance with Australian regulations.
Here’s how Kada and Verkada are transforming security for Australian schools:
Verkada’s cameras are ideal for schools as they provide high-definition video quality, ensuring that every corner of the campus is clearly visible. These cameras are equipped with built-in storage and smart analytics to detect unusual activity and alert school staff immediately.
Key features include:
One of the key benefits of Verkada’s cloud-based security system is the ability to monitor live feeds remotely. School administrators can access real-time footage from any device—whether on-site or off-campus—through the Verkada Command platform. This flexibility allows schools to manage their security even when key staff members are not physically present.
Verkada’s system also allows for real-time alerts, ensuring that administrators are notified of suspicious behaviour as soon as it’s detected. This means that staff can act quickly, preventing potential incidents before they escalate.
Schools are dynamic environments that are constantly evolving. As they grow, they need a security solution that can expand with them. Verkada’s system is highly scalable, allowing schools to start with just a few cameras and add more as their needs grow. Whether a school is expanding its campus or adding new buildings, the Verkada system can easily scale without needing a complete overhaul.
Additionally, Verkada’s systems are future-proof. Since the technology is cloud-based, schools will automatically receive updates and new features without the need for expensive hardware upgrades.
Investigating incidents, such as theft, vandalism, or bullying, can be a time-consuming process for school staff. Verkada’s People Analytics feature makes it easy to review footage and search for specific individuals or events. Administrators can filter footage by date, time, or even appearance, such as clothing colour or facial features, allowing them to quickly identify key moments.
This feature significantly reduces the time needed to investigate incidents, providing schools with valuable evidence to resolve issues and improve safety protocols.
Beyond surveillance, Kada and Verkada offer access control systems to ensure that only authorised individuals can enter specific areas of the school. This can be especially useful for managing entry to sensitive areas like staff rooms, IT labs, or administrative offices.
Verkada’s access control system integrates seamlessly with its cameras, allowing schools to monitor who enters and exits secure areas while having a video record of each event. This combination of access control and video surveillance ensures complete transparency and security across the entire campus.
In Australia, schools are required to comply with strict privacy laws when it comes to monitoring students and staff. Verkada’s security solutions ensure that all video data is encrypted and stored securely in Australia, meeting local regulations and ensuring that schools remain compliant with legal standards.
Additionally, Verkada’s system allows schools to easily manage permissions, ensuring that only authorised personnel have access to sensitive footage. This level of control helps maintain student privacy while ensuring that the school remains fully compliant with Australian laws.
Kada offers schools full support throughout the entire process, from initial consultation to installation and ongoing maintenance. Schools receive training on how to use Verkada’s system, ensuring that administrators can manage their security effectively. Additionally, Kada’s dedicated support team is available to assist with any questions or technical issues, ensuring that the system continues to operate smoothly.
