Verkada<\/a>, the cloud-based physical security company, is modernizing the world of enterprise building security by enabling customers to proactively respond to COVID-19 in the office<\/a>.<\/p>\n

In June, Verkada introduced its COVID-19 Response Suite<\/a>. Part of the this release included People Heatmaps. This new feature allows organizations to \u201cidentify areas that are prone to overcrowding, and find ways to disperse traffic\u201d. In other words, it helps ensure employees are practicing social-distancing.<\/p>\n

This week, Verkada announced the release of its new environmental sensor product line, and its product, SV11<\/a>. This all-in-one environmental sensor monitors changes that are happening in your physical space. The product is made from photochemically engineered stainless steel mesh that filters out large particles. The integrated sensors measure air quality, temperature, humidity, motion, and noise. Then, all the data is reported back to users for regular monitoring and analysis.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe SV11 sensor is a cloud-based sensor that seamlessly integrates with the Verkada ecosystem of products,\u201d said Jeff Chase, a product marketing manager for Verkada, in a recent video<\/a>. \u201cThe SV11 can be used across all indoor environments and can meet the needs for a wide range of use cases, including simple remote monitoring of facilities.\u201d<\/p>\n

In the security system\u2019s web-based command platform, users can see all the sensors, and can quickly scan real-time data for each location. Live footage and current readings are easy to view. Custom thresholds can be set for each sensor so a user can receive alerts as they happen. This is helpful so you can know when a server room is getting too warm, or when the TVOC (total volatile organic compounds) level is too high.<\/p>\n

“Our customers are responsible for the systems that keep facilities online, and our mission is to give those administrators the best possible tools to do their jobs,” said<\/a> Filip Kaliszan, CEO and co-founder of Verkada. “Whether it be monitoring the status of a server room, the temperature of a patient room in a hospital, or the air quality of a school, the SV11 gives facilities and staff unprecedented visibility and control over the sites they’re responsible for keeping safe and secure.”<\/p>\n

With more companies bringing their workforce back into the office<\/a>, Verkada\u2019s security system can give them visibility on what\u2019s going on at work. And with the valuable information rendered by the sensors, they can gain insights into what they can do to keep their employees safe.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
