Security Challenges in Modern Educational Settings

Educational institutions face unique security challenges that require sophisticated, responsive solutions. These include:

1. Potential Physical Threats: Schools are increasingly vulnerable to unauthorized intrusions, vandalism, and other physical security risks that can disrupt the learning environment.
