SYSTEM DESIGN AND DEPLOYMENT
What factors should be considered when designing a secure physical environment?
Effective designs account for access control, surveillance coverage, visitor flow, ADA compliance, and integration with existing infrastructure.
Can Parabit solutions be customized for unique architectural environments?
Yes. Parabit offers custom fabrication, engineering, and mounting solutions to fit both functional and design specifications.
What does it mean when a system is “supervised”?
Supervised systems monitor device health, detect tampering, and issue real-time alerts - providing better visibility and control than standalone systems.
TECHNOLOGY CONCEPTS
What is the role of sensor technology in physical security?
Sensors provide environmental awareness by detecting motion, presence, door status, and light levels - supporting automated alerts and better operational control.
What is microservice architecture and how does it benefit security software?
Microservice architecture allows software platforms to be more modular, scalable, and resilient. It enables faster updates, simplified integrations, and fault isolation.
What is the difference between on-premise and cloud-based access control systems?
On-prem systems are hosted locally for maximum control, while cloud-based systems offer flexibility, remote access, and easier updates.
