Enhancing Safety, Security & Efficiency in Higher Education

Posted on by nicoledavies

As universities continue to expand and evolve, managing safety, security, and operational efficiency across large campuses presents significant challenges. Cortech’s Datalog offers an intelligent solution, empowering higher education institutions to streamline systems and enhance campus-wide protection.

 

Enhancing Safety, Security & Efficiency in Higher Education

The Challenge

Universities manage vast, multi-site campuses with diverse facilities — lecture halls, dormitories, research labs, and sports complexes. With high visitor footfall and frequent personnel changes, security and operations become complex, especially when managing isolated systems from different manufacturers.

The Solution

Cortech’s Datalog integrates fire, security, and building management systems into a single, user-friendly platform. This provides real-time visibility, automated workflows, and seamless coordination across campus.

Key Benefits

  • Centralised Management – Control CCTV, access control, fire alarms, intruder detection, intercoms, and emergency systems from one interface
  • Faster Incident Response – Instantly locate alarms, streamline decision-making, and improve response times.
  • Cost & Efficiency Gains – Reduce downtime, optimise resources, and lower operational costs.
  • Scalable & Future-Ready – Adaptable to evolving security needs, ensuring long-term sustainability.

Smart Campus Features

  • Fire Alarm Integration – Instantly verify and pinpoint alarms, minimising false evacuations while ensuring a swift, coordinated response.
  • Dynamic Threat Levels – Configure response protocols for daily operations, large events, or emergencies. Security teams receive clear, step-by-step instructions, reducing human error.
  • Threat Level Escalation – Activate predefined security measures, including lockdowns or restricted access, in response to evolving threats.

Cortech delivers proven, intelligent integration — helping universities create safer, smarter, and more connected campuses.
