Elite security systems provide optimal security and support to keep your
educational campuses safe during suspicious activity.
Burglary is on the rise in the US with more than 2 million burglaries reported in 2019, according to statistics released by the FBI. The report warns public schools, private schools, colleges, and universities to be aware of any vulnerabilities and move forward with caution. As much as 50% of campus crimes pertain to property crimes – about 42% burglary, 8% motor vehicle theft. With Elite Digital Guards, you can rest assured knowing that your campus always has “eyes watching” both during and after hours. By using advance analytics, machine learning, and an expert team, your campus will be protected from any threats before they occur.
As trespassing rates across the United States continue to rise so does your campus risk. Whether the threat comes from gang activity, drug dealers, loners, those with mental health issues, or depressed individuals, school and university grounds continue to be a hot target for trespassers. These people have no business or authorization to explore your property and Elite will make sure they aren’t given the chance. With most of these acts happening after-hours, during weekends, or during holidays, Elite can guard your site when your staff not aware. Remote Guards systems are specifically designed to always be on guard and to provide the additional level of support to keep onsite security and patrons safe while always recording so the police and other first responders can be notified.
Vandalism almost always happens for a reason, meaning the accuser will usually have an agenda that brought them to your campus. There are plenty of reasons why someone would want to vandalize your property, including to express frustration with your institution, portray a message, seek revenge, make some money, or just for fun. Most of these acts happen after-hours, but Elite Digital Guards can help you maintain protection both day and night. Our combination of technology, machine-learning equipment, advanced analytics, and on-site custom layouts will provide the most protection for your students and teachers.
In the United States today, active shooter events (ASEs) often occur out of nowhere with little room for reaction before it’s too late. These events happen quickly and require fast-acting support that law enforcement normally can’t provide. The FBI took a closer look at 63 of these incidents and were surprised to find that 44 of those were over in 5 minutes or less. 52% of them ended in under 2 minutes. As a result, law enforcement often arrives long before the suspect has committed extensive damage. Elite offers real-time monitoring to help you spot these incidents before they occur, but also offers the ability to assist law enforcement in getting to the right location quicker. With our advanced technology and highly resourceful agents, you can keep your students, teachers, and campus safe and secure.

Public and private schools are faced with many of the same issues pertaining to campus security and crime. Village Christian School (private) and Harbor High (public) found themselves in similar situations as their communities dealt with theft, vandalism, and trespassing. Suspects were found spreading graffiti throughout campus, using the swimming pool to bathe, vandalizing classrooms, stealing bus batteries, skateboarding where they shouldn’t be, and camping. Even bicyclists were found regularly trespassing to use the campus as a shortcut. Students, teachers, and community members took notice of these issues and voiced their concern and desire for an effective security solution.
Elite Interactive Solutions analyzed both schools – Village Christian and Harbor High – in order to build the most effective and customized security solution for their facility. With our Digital Guards technology, we were able to set up cameras around the campus that continuously scanned for intruders and suspects. With our highly skilled and trained Elite agents monitoring these systems, we were confident that nothing would be missed. Our technology even grants the agents access to directly speak with intruders to ensure the crime is stopped before it begins. To bring the service full-circle, we partner with local law enforcement to ensure backup arrives in a timely manner.
Both Village Christian and Harbor High saw positive results in the 12 months after installing our Elite Interactive Solutions system. With campus crime reported as coming to a screeching halt, community members began to take notice of the positive change. When a skateboarder would attempt to skate through the property, a voice would stop them in their tracks and prevent crime from taking place. Theft of industrial bus batteries was non-existent with the intelligent cameras installed and vandalism was a thing of the past. Eventually, it became known that these campuses were heavily monitored. As a result, intruders and criminals gave up on trying anything at all.
After seeing the positive effect Elite Interactive Solutions had on both of these campuses, the board of trustees was so pleased they decided to expand our services to further meet their needs. With the threat of active shooters at an all-time high, these schools trust us to provide real-time, strategic support during these emergencies. Taking advantage of our partnerships with law enforcement, we will make sure any threat is dealt with accordingly.
As a single-source provider, Elite commits to delivery, operations, and maintenance of a fully integrated security solutions service. Let us show you how!
