Create a safer school environment with Verkada’s easy-to-use solution

Schools often rely on legacy CCTV systems that make it challenging, and sometimes impossible, to investigate incidents on school grounds. A good surveillance system, however, could easily mitigate school incidents, theft, and vandalism.

Instantly strengthen your critical security infrastructure with Verkada’s intelligent, plug-and-play video security system that makes it simple to scale cameras and improve visibility across schools of any size.

Simple to Set Up 

Eliminate the need for NVRs or DVRs. With a single ethernet cable, Verkada cameras are brought online instantly. No technical configurations or downloads are required, giving authorised users the ability to quickly access and share footage on any device.

Infinitely Scalable

Centralise video management and gain instant visibility of cameras and system health all on one screen. With cloud-connected cameras that operate at 20kbps, the system scales—whether you’re deploying ten or hundreds of cameras—without depleting bandwidth resources.

Always Secure

Unlike traditional CCTV systems, Verkada systems have no open ports and release regular firmware and software updates. With the highest encryption standards and security enhancements that deploy automatically—and at no cost—systems are always up-to-date with the latest security regulations.

Benefits of School and University Security Cameras

Protect Students & Faculty

School security camera systems keep track of everyone entering and exiting the area, making it easy to spot intruders and prevent unauthorised visitors from entering campuses. With cameras deployed across campus—from car parks, to sports areas, to hallways—it’s simple to monitor open areas that might be vulnerable to crime. Having cameras on campus also deters poor student behaviours, such as bullying, and can improve overall experiences on campus.

Quick Incident Resolution

More so than ever, parents are getting involved in ensuring that they’re sending students to safe schools. With video footage and smart search filters available, school admistrators can quickly find recorded video of key events and effectively address behavioural concerns or conflict between students. In the event of emergencies, school faculty and authorised users can send live feeds of cameras instantly, reducing the time it takes to communicate with law enforcement and parents.

Proactively Deter Threats

With smart video technology, gain better insight about activity happening on school grounds. Get alerted of unusual activities—such as cars or people appearing on campus after school hours—without having to actively monitor your cameras. In other instances, school or university security cameras can be used as a tool to help teachers and instructional aides anticipate misbehaviour and take actions to potentially prevent it.
