Genetec announced that Reiknistofa Bankanna (RB), an IT service provider for Icelandic financial institutions, has recently overhauled its security infrastructure with Genetec? Security Center. With the help of its system integrator Hafnes Ehf, RB is now using Genetec to manage its cameras, access control, and video analytics through one unified interface.

RB is a provider of mission-critical IT systems for Icelandic financial institutions, responsible for the country?s central clearance and settlement system, and a number of multi-tenant core banking solutions.

As the backbone of Icelandic Financial Services, RB places very high importance on security; not only to ensure its data stays safe but also to protect employees and visiting clients. While its server rooms and offices were protected via disparate video and access control systems, the technology was old, and maintenance was becoming both a financial and an operational burden.

RB operates its solutions across multiple data centers in a shared, multi-bank environment. This requires a modern, reliable system that brings video and access control into a single solution ? making it easy for operators to understand what is happening, when, where, and what action to take next.

As an open unified platform, Genetec Security Center was the optimal choice as it simplified daily security operations, allowed for further integration with other tools such as RB?s heating and cooling systems, and delivered business-wide value.

?From day one we wanted a unified system which could help our teams understand the situation quickly; alerting them if anything required their attention,? said Geir S Source: genetec.com
