Galaxy Control Systems and LENSEC Offer Access Control and Video Integration
Bi-Directional Integration Delivers Benefits to Both Systems


Walkersville, MD (January 11, 2018) – Galaxy Control Systems, a leading manufacturer of access control solutions, announces a new integration between its access control products, Cloud Concierge and System Galaxy software, and the Perspective VMS® from LENSEC, a leader in IP video surveillance solutions. The integration will be officially launched at Intersec 2018, January 21-23, 2018 in Dubai, where Galaxy will exhibit at booth S1-C20.

The unique bi-directional integration between the Galaxy Control Systems’ System Galaxy platform and the LENSEC Perspective VMS® solution provides added functionality to both solutions. First, the user’s cameras are configured through the access control software to activate on specifically defined access system alarm activity and this video is pushed to display through the VMS. At the next level, the Perspective VMS® software will display alarms and statuses generated by the access control system.

“This new integration is unique in the industry in that two manufacturers – Galaxy Control Systems and LENSEC – have created a solution with multiple ways for an end-user to monitor, detect and respond to security incidents in real-time,” said Rick Caruthers, Executive Vice President, Galaxy Control Systems. “It’s a complete real-time security management solution for end users and security integrators, with scalability and flexibility for enterprises of all sizes.”
