Consolidated Physical Security
Simplify IT and Operations With a Unified Approach
The partnership between IT and physical security is critical for facility security and risk reduction. A high volume of disconnected and unknown security applications creates cyber risks for IT teams. This can negatively impact the network and create visibility gaps in the system. For security managers, platform sprawl doesn’t just increase total cost of ownership, it weakens the ability to maintain a good security posture.
Siloed access logs, video feeds, and identity management systems prevent timely investigations due to the manual process of reconciling data and notifying teams. Friction limits an organization’s ability to respond to threats in real time, especially for businesses with a global footprint.
Unified Access Control and Video Intelligence
Transitioning to a unified, cloud-based architecture that adheres to key cybersecurity standards minimizes risk for IT teams. Meanwhile, an open and AI-friendly API makes integrations easy to build and manage. By unifying these core functions, organizations can enforce consistent policies across all locations, reducing administrative burden while ensuring security operations are as agile as the rest of the business

How to Evaluate Physical Security Solutions
Evaluating a physical security platform requires looking beyond the hardware to ensure it meets enterprise-grade operational standards. Use this checklist to determine if a solution can handle the complexities of your current IT infrastructure and long-term security strategy.
- Centralized governance: Can you manage global policies, compliance standards, and user permissions across all locations from a single pane of glass? And offer local control only?
- Existing hardware compatibility: Can it integrate with your current Mercury-based controllers or legacy wiring to avoid a costly rip-and-replace?
- Automated role-based access (RBAC): Does it sync directly with your IDP (Okta, Azure AD) to automate the user lifecycle based on job function?
- Real-time event visibility and reporting : Are security events logged instantly across the network to provide immediate situational awareness? Are access and video correlated to increase context and verify? Can you generate detailed, cross-site reports to satisfy internal audits and regulatory requirements?
- Cybersecurity and Infrastructure impact: What security standards does it adhere to ? How are firmware updates managed? What is the track record for cyber attacks? What are the bandwidth requirements? Can we isolate these devices (VLAN)?
- Storage & data privacy: What are the storage and retention options? What are the data privacy provisions?
Achieve Unified Security Outcomes with Brivo
Brivo serves as the foundation for your unified security platform, centralizing access control, video intelligence, intrusion detection, and visitor management into a single, operational stream. By consolidating these workflows, organizations achieve clearer governance and faster investigations through a single source of truth.
How are unified security solutions different from separate point systems?
Unified solutions eliminate the data silos of point systems by consolidating administration into a single interface, providing a comprehensive view of your security posture. This streamlines investigation workflows, as teams no longer need to manually correlate timestamps between disconnected access logs and video feeds. It removes the need to manually integrate the silo systems.
Can unified security solutions work with existing hardware?
Yes, Brivo is designed for phased modernization, supporting open-standard hardware such as Mercury controllers to bridge the gap between legacy systems and the cloud. This allows you to upgrade your software capabilities immediately while maintaining compatibility with mixed-use environments and protecting previous infrastructure investments.
What are the cybersecurity guardrails necessary to assure a resilient and high-integrity system that will not impact our digital ecosystem?
The Brivo Eagle Eye Bridge/CMVR architecture acts as a buffer, isolating cameras from the internet. In addition, Brivo adheres to critical security standards: SOC 2 Type II, ISO/IEC 27001, and CSA STAR Level 1. All Brivo devices use real-time monitoring to maintain their health.
Who benefits most from unified security solutions?
Multi-site operators and IT leaders benefit from centralized governance, while security and facilities teams gain efficiency through automated workflows. By reducing vendor sprawl and manual data entry, these stakeholders can scale operations across global locations without increasing administrative headcount.
How do unified security solutions improve incident response?
Unification provides shared event context, automatically linking access alerts with corresponding video footage for instant visual verification. This real-time intelligence enables response teams to act faster and more accurately during critical incidents.
