Diebold adds new features to SecureStat
September 27, 2013
Five months after introducing SecureStat, Diebold Inc. is unveiling a development zone portal that will allow partners and end users to leverage capabilities of the security monitoring program to create an enterprise-focused model. The company is also adding in-demand functionalities to SecureStat, according to a press release.
SecureStat is part of Diebold's roadmap to connected security services, the company said. The Web-based, product-agnostic solution was created to improve the end-user experience and provide a more cohesive, enterprise-focused environment for security management.
The development zone portal includes application program interfaces, as well as documentation, sample code, instructions and an inventory of discrete capabilities and services that can be written to.
Ultimately, the intent is to help partners and customers achieve richer collaboration and more meaningful information across departments, sites and even organizations, Diebold said.
"From the beginning, our vision for SecureStat was to create an open ecosystem built on APIs for the expansion of security management and information-sharing capabilities," said Jeremy Brecher, Diebold VP of technology for electronic security. "By leveraging APIs and the 'Internet of Things' approach and architecture, we're improving connectedness for our partners and customers."
For security technology partners, the SecureStat Development Zone Portal enables integration into SecureStat of functionalities video, intrusion and access control.
For Diebold customers, the portal serves as a vehicle to access available commands, as well as to send and retrieve critical information via the solution's APIs.
Diebold has also added a variety of new capabilities to the tool:
- expanded technology partners and end users' functionality around arming, disarming and modifying PINs;
- "look-in" integration with Videofied to deliver video clips and images;
- a fire alarm module that provides recent activity data for both fire and trouble conditions;
- inventory, document and asset management information linked to specific sites or the entire enterprise;
- integrated online service request capabilities, allowing the entry of service requests directly into the service dispatch queue for immediate logging and action;
- weather alerts, providing warning of weather conditions that could impact the security operation and integrating them with the end user's interactive site maps; and
- integration with Diebold monitoring centers, enabling end users to run advanced reports and custom scheduling while placing systems "on test."
