Case Study: Kratos Public Safety & Security Solutions achieves seamless campus security modernization and real-time lockdown capability with acre security

University Experiences Seamless Security Update with SMS System

Kratos Public Safety & Security Solutions worked with a 155‑acre public university that needed to modernize an aging security landscape, integrate access control with the campus One Card, HR and student information systems, and reduce day‑to‑day management workload through automation. The vendor acre security was engaged to provide a solution, using the Vanderbilt Security Management System (SMS) where appropriate to meet these integration and scalability requirements.

acre security implemented Vanderbilt SMS as a single‑source platform to integrate access control, digital video and alarm monitoring across the campus, supporting unlimited cardholders/readers and centralizing administration. The rollout enabled push‑button, real‑time campus lockdowns, simplified recovery and operations for security staff, and delivered a scalable, future‑proof system that reduced operational burden and improved emergency response capability.
