While the emphasis may differ from the USA, protecting people and facilities remains a primary concern for educators in Canada. Local schools and universities face unique challenges, with a greater focus on issues like recreational drug use and vaping.
However, many institutions still grapple with outdated and fragmented security infrastructure. Lack of video surveillance, antiquated (or no) access control systems, and aging alarms create complexity and hinder quick responses during emergencies.
The need for a unified security solution becomes even more apparent when considering the challenges of addressing recreational drug use and vaping. |

To address these concerns, school districts and campus security are increasingly looking for integrated security solutions like ICT’s Protege GX which unifies access control, alarms, video surveillance, building automation (e.g. lights and air conditioning), door lockdowns, and even vape detection systems.
Modern systems offer flexibility and scalability to evolve with the security landscape. They remove the need to use physical keys, with the added benefit of removing the high costs of re-keying buildings when someone invariably loses theirs. |

Customised calendar actions. |
Specific requirements for after-hours use? Calendar Actions allow administrators to override preset schedules while still restricting access to certain areas – meaning specific doors can unlock/lock and lights activate automatically outside normal hours. |

Door lockdowns that work. |
Protege's built-in function enables lockdowns for individual doors, specific areas, or entire premises at the press of a button, to ensure a prompt responses to any security threat. |

Vape detection & mitigation. |
A Protege GX integration with vape and environmental sensors, like Halo Smart Sensors, mean when vapour is detected, an alarm is received in the Protege system, and push notifications are sent to security or staff phones or emails. |
