Proximex Announces the Industry's First
Centralized Command and Control Center Appliance

New Easy-to-Install Appliance Brings Affordable, Best-in-Class PSIM Functionality
to Small- and Mid-sized Companies 

ASIS International 2009 - Anaheim, CA (Business Wire) – September 21, 2009 – Proximex, the leading developer of award-winning products for the physical security information management (PSIM) market, today announced the launch of the Proximex C100, the industry's first centralized command and control center appliance. Designed for small- to mid-sized companies, the C100 offers best-in-class PSIM functionality at an affordable price. With its ease of installation, the C100 brings business value to security operations in days instead of months.

"The Proximex C100 makes PSIM functionality available to a whole new market segment that has similar security needs as larger organizations but may not be able to afford expensive solutions and implementations," said Tony Varco, vice president, security division for integrator Convergint Technologies. "The appliance design and guided set up allows customers to eliminate the costs associated with integrating systems and lets them focus on the important aspects of defining and enforcing security policies. Since the C100 supports a wide variety of vendor systems, companies can keep their existing security systems and add new technologies as required without being concerned about interoperability."

The Proximex C100 appliance is intended for security environments with little or no IT staff or expertise. It offers a guided tour that simplifies setup and comes pre-installed with best-in-class integration technologies that quickly discover and connect with existing video, access control, video analytics and other devices. The base unit supports hundreds of sensors as well as operator and administrator workstation clients. Using Integration Modules and pre-defined policy templates, the C100 leverages the award-winning PSIM technology found in Proximex Surveillint to connect and correlate security data from disparate systems and elevate important incidents for response. Additional security systems, sensors and clients can be added without loading additional software.

"The C100 idea has been validated by numerous integrators and security consultants that see the need for PSIM in their smaller customers but can't find a solution to meet their budgets," said Larry Lien, vice president of product management for Proximex. "The C100 lets customers to do more with their existing security infrastructure and to better share information between systems while minimizing the time necessary to acquire and setup a physical server, so customers can be up and running and seeing value in days, not months. At the same time, it gives integrators lots of room to add on services and new subsystems."

The Proximex C100 offers additional best-in-class PSIM functionality. Companies can manage alarms and incident workflow by automating actions and decisions using Business Logic Manager, eliminating the need for complicated coding. Because it only displays relevant information, operator tasks and procedures can be prioritized depending upon alarm types and conditions. In order to proactively manage security operations, companies can quickly create reports about incidents and security trends for further analysis.
