In this episode, we dive into the blog “Top 7 Proactive Security Platforms Protecting Corporate Campuses in 2025” (link: https://alphavision.ai/blogs/axis-integration/top-7-proactive-security-platforms-protecting-campuses) to explore how modern campuses are shifting from reactive to anticipatory security. We’ll break down the strengths, trade-offs, and use cases of the seven standout platforms and provide a framework for selecting the right one for your campus environment.

Key Takeaways

• 
  

  Why traditional security models (cameras + guards) are no longer sufficient campuses demand proactive, AI-driven surveillance.

  
  


• 
  

  The seven platforms to watch in 2025:
  
    1. Alpha Vision + Axis Integration combining top-tier Axis hardware with AI analytics (intrusion alerts, LPR, Magic Search, live deterrence) 
  
    2. Genetec Security Center unified video, access, alarms in one enterprise platform 
  
    3. Avigilon (Motorola Solutions) premium cameras + AI analytics for high demand environments 
  
    4. Avigilon Alta a cloud-native extension for multi-site campus deployments 
  
    5. Verkada all-in-one hardware + software cloud security offering 
  
    6. Rhombus Systems cloud video + IoT integration for campus use 
  
    7. Eagle Eye Networks open cloud VMS enabling existing camera reuse

  Core differentiators to evaluate:
  
    • Cloud vs hybrid architecture and dependency on connectivity
  
    • Integration with existing infrastructure (cameras, sensors, access control)
  
    • AI analytics capabilities (intrusion detection, license plate recognition, behavior detection)
  
    • Real-time intervention: two-way audio, alert escalation
  
    • Cost model: subscription, hardware, scale, possible vendor lock-in
  
    • Privacy, compliance, and handling sensitive data

  
  


• 
  

  Practical guidance:
  
    • Start with pilot zones (e.g. high traffic entrances)
  
    • Tune AI models to reduce false positives
  
    • Ensure fallback for connectivity outage (local buffering, edge modes)
  
    • Choose a platform that supports staged adoption and open APIs
