MILPITAS, Calif., April 10, 2024 /PRNewswire/ — In a major leap forward for the physical security industry, a dedicated team of developers has successfully crafted a cutting-edge library of drivers, poised to seamlessly connect diverse security technologies, and dismantle the barriers posed by siloed, proprietary and legacy systems. This pioneering solution is set to redefine the landscape of physical security integration and deliver true interoperability across the entire physical security ecosystem.
The challenge of interoperability has long been a bottleneck, hindering the efficiency and responsiveness of security infrastructure and technologies. Recognizing this critical issue, BlackBear Labs, an independent division of Northland Controls, has created an integration hub, BlackBear.io, to link corporate databases, visitor management systems, video surveillance, threat intelligence, mass notification, and risk management programs.
BlackBear Labs is a team of elite engineers and industry veterans that envision a future where security professionals can navigate the complex landscape of physical security with ease and efficiency and not be limited by legacy technologies or proprietary systems. BlackBear.io is home to a library of drivers that allows end users to pick and choose which best of breed security technologies are right for them.
The BlackBear.io hub includes:
- PACS.io
- VMS.io
- Visitor.io
- CEM.io
- HRM.io
- Data & Dashboards.io
“We are pushing the industry forward and filling a gap between manufacturers and end users who have been limited by legacy and proprietary systems and unable to provide an integrated defense against the rapidly changing threat landscape,” said Pierre Trapanese, Northland Controls CEO. “Several years ago, we set about imagining a world where end users were unlimited—a world where your access control system, video management, HR database, threat intelligence platforms, travel risk management solution, visitor management system, mass notification technology and your global security operation center cooperate and communicate to provide a united front against threats in the face of a critical event. As a result of this exercise, we began building BlackBear Labs and the BlackBear.io hub”
