Diebold launches intuitive online security management tool

by Shane Henson — April 29, 2013—Diebold Inc., a provider of integrated self-service delivery and security systems and services, showcased a new technology at the recent ISC West security event that the company says will enable end users to integrate systems and connect services to streamline and centralize the management of security operations online from wherever they are.

SecureStat from Diebold is an innovative online security management tool that unifies security services and disparate systems, while providing a single interface for real-time administration of security operations across an enterprise.

At the heart of Diebold’s SecureStat is a personalized dashboard that utilizes customizable, distinct widgets to provide a snapshot of a user’s entire security platform, including locations, security systems and devices, the company says.

Because of its robust systems interoperability, SecureStat enables seamless integration of existing hardware, software, monitoring and other managed services. That approach means customers can leverage the equipment manufacturers of their choice, and they can connect all of their security products and services within a single, online management interface. As organizations evolve security, SecureStat is also flexible enough to allow rapid migration to future technologies.

Diebold says it has invested in building the infrastructure to support and sustain its online security management solution. That infrastructure was developed using open architecture for maximum flexibility to securely connect multiple security systems and services throughout the customer’s security operation. SecureStat is fully scalable to the scope and function of the end user’s organization, regardless of size and geographic reach.

With a robust portfolio of remote, hosted and managed security services, Diebold anticipates immediate benefits for customers that implement SecureStat. The solution is being offered as a value-add to Diebold security services customers. In addition to connecting systems and services within a customer’s security operation, SecureStat also provides users with a personalized, Web-based portal or dashboard that provides a snapshot of all locations, systems and devices. The portal makes an end user’s security operation accessible regardless of platform—computer, smartphone or tablet—or location.
