Nedap Security Management is developing AEOS, a system that combines access control, video management and protection against burglary. By doing this in a much more intelligent and totally different way than that used by the competition, Nedap has acquired a unique position in the market with AEOS. Access is granted via AEOS more than 37 millions times per day!

New challenges and possibilities

Since the digital age started gathering speed, there have been many new challenges  as well as new possibilities in the area of security. It is now possible to connect the security management system with the security of the company’s network. This way an employee can only log-on to the network if is badge is checked-in in the building. 

Security can save lives

Many businesses currently monitor how many people present have a first aid certificate or a medical background. This is particularly important at businesses that work with flammable materials, such as in the petrochemical industry. AEOS registers all the people present on arrival, and knows exactly what percentage of them can offer assistance in an emergency. If that percentage drops under a critical level, an alert is displayed on the screen at reception.

Keep moving securely

Traffic of vehicles and people in urbanized areas keeps increasing. To keep control of traffic flow, AVI offers solutions for vehicle and driver identification, parking detection, handsfree access and vehicle management. Long range identification and vehicle detection systems bring convenience and a secure speedy flow of traffic.

Balance between security and customer friendliness

A key consideration in security for shops is finding the balance between customer friendliness and effectiveness. On the one hand, you want to offer shoppers a welcoming, pleasant environment, and not give them the sense that they are under suspicion from the moment they walk in. On the other hand, security must be visible, because of its preventive effect. Nedap Retail specialises in security for shops, including chemist’s, perfumeries, clothes shops and supermarkets. The main focus in this respect is the shop experience of the customer. The security must not create any hindrances and must fit the shop interior.

Important role in the background

Security is about technology, safety, privacy, organisations and people. It is a business which – in extreme cases – can save lives, and for security reasons does not make many facts public. Millions of people around the world come in contact with it daily, without knowing. In this way, Nedap helps to make the world a safer place.
