PSA Security Network and 1nservice have teamed up to create a large-scale security network, which they hope will provide businesses with a converged model of IT and physical security.
The two firms think businesses should be using the latest technology to defend against “constant” internal and external attacks on physical and intellectual property.
“Our clients can not only get the highest levels of security from leading edge providers,” said Dave Homet, PSA’s central regional manager, “but now they get the support and training from one source. It’s no longer necessary to have individual vendors servicing different needs”.
Tim La Fazia, founder & CEO of Infrastructure Development Corporate, a 1nservice member, thinks the collaboration makes sense in light of the movement towards an IP-centric environment.
“Much like the convergence of voice on to the network in the early 2000’s physical security finds itself headed in the same direction with similar requirements to assure its planned success,” he said.
The new collaboration allows each company to share products and supplier discounts and insiders hope it will improve the level of customer service each company can offer.
Paul Cronin, 1nservice executive said, “We needed a partner that has the same national presence and sterling credentials as 1nservice members, and someone having the ability and flexibility to collaborate with our members. PSA is the clear choice.”
