Digital Integration
Physical security has a data problem. Buildings run more cameras, sensors, and access systems than ever before. Each generates valuable information, but it is trapped inside the system that created it.
Telemetri is the only complete data platform to enable physical AI in the security industry.
Connecting systems has meant one integration at a time: expensive to build, difficult to maintain, impossible to change.
Telemetri is 4S Security's unified data layer. Connect a system once and its data becomes a common language across the organization. One connection powers a workflow, a dashboard, an AI agent, or what comes next.
Interoperability and operational intelligence - not another silo. Your systems stay where they are; their data becomes available to the people and tools that need it.
Connect your systems. Unlock your data. Build what comes next.

AI watches every feed at once and flags what matters: unauthorized access, unusual behavior, occupancy spikes. Your team gets the key information as events unfold, not after the fact.
Solve Incidents Faster
Smart search pinpoints people, vehicles, and events across all your cameras in seconds. Real-time alerts fire the moment a potential threat appears, so response starts while it still matters.
System Health Monitoring & Reporting
Built-in health monitoring watches your security infrastructure itself. Know the moment a camera goes offline or a system needs maintenance. Automate compliance and usage reports, and cut total cost of ownership with fewer surprises.
AI-Powered Security Analytics — FAQ
How much does AI security analytics cost?
Pricing depends on camera and sensor count plus analytics licensing. 4S provides fixed-fee proposals after a site walk, with no consumption metering and no surprise line items.
Can AI analytics work with our existing cameras?
Often, yes. Many existing IP cameras can feed analytics platforms without replacement. 4S evaluates your current hardware during the site walk and reuses what still performs.
Will AI analytics replace our security guards?
No. Analytics make guards more effective: fewer screens to watch, faster threat detection, and instant alerts that tell them exactly where to go.
How accurate is AI threat detection?
Modern analytics dramatically reduce false alarms compared to basic motion detection, because the AI learns what normal looks like for your building. 4S tunes detection to your site during commissioning.
Legacy System Modernization

We plan upgrades in phases with cutover windows that avoid business hours. Most buildings see zero downtime during the transition.
How long does a modernization project take?
Timelines depend on site count and scope. A single building typically takes weeks; a portfolio rolls out in planned phases with dedicated project management.
Unified Data Layer Development
Unified data layer development connects every security and building system into a single source of truth. 4S Security builds the integration foundation that normalizes events, identities, and sensor data from cameras, access control, sensors, and business platforms, so your teams and software act on one consistent picture. For commercial real estate, cultural institutions, multifamily properties, and corporate offices nationwide.
Normalized Events & Identities
Every platform speaks a different language. We normalize alarms, access events, identities, and sensor readings into one consistent data model, so a forced door and a camera analytic mean the same thing everywhere.
Real-Time Data Flow
Events stream into the data layer the moment they happen. Dashboards, automations, and AI tools all read from live data, not overnight syncs or stale exports.
Built to Scale Across Your Portfolio
One building or one hundred. The data layer architecture scales across sites and systems, so each new property plugs into the same foundation instead of starting over.
Unified Data Layer Development — FAQ
How much does a unified data layer cost?
Pricing depends on system count, data volume, and integration complexity. 4S provides fixed-fee proposals after a discovery assessment, with no consumption metering and no surprise line items.
What systems can connect to the data layer?
Access control, video management, intrusion, visitor management, HR platforms, ticketing, building management, and more. If a system has an API or data export, we can integrate it.
Do we need to replace our existing platforms?
No. The data layer sits above your current systems and unifies them. You keep the platforms that work and gain a single operational picture across all of them.
Who owns the data?
You do. Your data stays yours, hosted in your environment or cloud tenancy, with 4S providing the integration and ongoing support.
How long does it take to build?
Timelines depend on system count and complexity. A focused deployment takes weeks; a portfolio-wide data layer rolls out in planned phases with working integrations delivered at each milestone.

For commercial real estate, cultural institutions, multifamily properties, and corporate offices nationwide.
Event-Driven Automation
Define what happens when an event fires. A forced door triggers camera pop-up, access lockdown, and mass notification in one motion, with every step executed and logged automatically.
Cross-Platform Coordination
Workflows span every connected system. Access control, video, intrusion, visitor management, and communication tools act as one coordinated response instead of five separate consoles.
Audit-Ready Logging
Every automated action is timestamped and logged. Review exactly what the system did and when, for incident review, compliance reporting, and insurance documentation.
Workflow Orchestration — FAQ
How much does workflow orchestration cost?
Pricing depends on workflow count, system integrations, and complexity. 4S provides fixed-fee proposals after a discovery assessment, with no consumption metering and no surprise line items.
Can operators override automated workflows?
Yes. Automation handles the routine; operators keep full manual control and can pause, override, or take over any workflow at any time.
What happens if a workflow step fails?
Workflows include fallback logic and alerting. If a step fails, the system retries, escalates to an operator, and logs the failure for review.
Do we need a unified data layer first?
Workflow orchestration works best on unified data, but we can build targeted automations between specific systems and expand from there.
Can workflows handle our compliance requirements?
Yes. We design workflows around your standard operating procedures and compliance obligations, with audit trails built in.
Custom Analytics

Operational Intelligence
See how your buildings actually run. Occupancy patterns, peak traffic periods, door usage, and incident trends surface in dashboards built for your decisions, not generic reports.
Compliance & Audit Reporting
Generate the reports your auditors and insurers ask for. Access logs, incident histories, and system health exports come out formatted and ready, on schedule or on demand.
Executive Dashboards
Give leadership the picture without the noise. Portfolio-level views roll up every property into the metrics that matter: incidents, response times, system health, and trends.
Custom Analytics — FAQ
How much do custom analytics cost?
Pricing depends on data sources, dashboard count, and reporting complexity. 4S provides fixed-fee proposals after a discovery assessment, with no consumption metering and no surprise line items.
What data can the analytics use?
Anything in your unified data layer: access events, video analytics, alarm history, sensor readings, visitor records, and connected business systems.
Can analytics replace our manual reporting?
That is the goal. We automate the reports your team builds by hand today and add the ones they never had time to build.
How do we know the data is accurate?
Analytics read from the same normalized data layer your operations run on. We validate every metric against source systems during commissioning.
Can we add new reports later?
Yes. The analytics platform grows with your needs; new dashboards and reports build on the same data foundation.

For commercial real estate, cultural institutions, multifamily properties, and corporate offices nationwide.
Intelligent Video Analytics
Cameras that understand what they see. Person and vehicle detection, loitering alerts, occupancy counting, and behavior analysis run on your existing camera infrastructure.
Anomaly Detection
The system learns what normal looks like for your building and flags what is not. Unusual access patterns, after-hours activity, and environmental deviations surface before they become incidents.
Tuned to Your Site
Off-the-shelf AI generates false alarms. We calibrate every model to your property's traffic patterns, lighting, and layout during commissioning, then refine it as the system learns.
AI Deployment — FAQ
How much does AI deployment cost?
Pricing depends on camera and sensor count plus analytics licensing. 4S provides fixed-fee proposals after a site walk, with no consumption metering and no surprise line items.
Can AI work with our existing cameras?

Will AI replace our security staff?
No. AI makes your team more effective: fewer screens to watch, faster threat detection, and alerts that say exactly where to go.
How do you handle false alarms?
Site tuning is the difference. We calibrate detection to your property during commissioning and keep refining, so the system learns your building instead of crying wolf.
What insights can AI provide beyond security?
Occupancy trends for space planning, queue and throughput analysis for operations, dwell patterns for retail and cultural spaces. The same analytics that protect your building can help run it better.
Cloud Migrations
Cloud migration moves your access control, video management, and related security platforms to cloud-hosted infrastructure. 4S Security plans and executes the migration with zero-downtime cutover planning, so your systems stay protected through every step. For commercial real estate, cultural institutions, multifamily properties, and corporate offices nationwide.
Zero-Downtime Cutover Planning
Your buildings stay protected during the move. We sequence the migration site by site and system by system, with rollback plans for every step, so there is never a gap in coverage.
Data Preserved & Intact
Users, credentials, access rules, video history, and configurations move with you. Nothing gets lost in translation; your team logs into the cloud and finds everything where it should be.
Cloud Architecture Done Right
We design the target environment around your portfolio: redundancy, retention policies, network requirements, and compliance needs, sized correctly from day one.

Cloud fits multi-site portfolios that want centralized management without server infrastructure. On-premise fits strict data residency requirements. 4S designs and supports both.
What happens to our existing hardware?
Field hardware like readers and cameras typically stays. We migrate the management platforms and servers to cloud; edge devices reconnect to the new environment.
How long does a migration take?
Timelines depend on site count and system complexity. A single site can migrate in weeks; portfolios roll out in planned phases with dedicated project management.
Data Integration
Security data integration connects the systems that were never designed to talk. 4S Security integrates HR platforms, tenant databases, ticketing systems, and building management software with your security stack, so identity and event data flows where it needs to go. For commercial real estate, cultural institutions, multifamily properties, and corporate offices nationwide.
Identity Sync Across Platforms
When HR onboards an employee or a tenant signs a lease, access follows automatically. We sync identity data between your business systems and security platforms, so provisioning is instant and deprovisioning is never forgotten.
Event Data Where You Need It
Security events belong in more than the SOC. We route alarms, access anomalies, and incident data into ticketing, facility management, and communication platforms, so the right teams act without waiting for a phone call.
Ticketing & Building System Links
Connect your security platforms to work order systems, building management, and visitor pre-registration. A door held open can open a work ticket; a VIP arrival can notify the front desk.

Products
4S Command Center
The 4S Command Center is a security operations automation platform purpose-built for high-stakes environments, giving operators full command of multi-display video walls, intelligent input routing, and built-in failover from a single touch screen.
Unified Touch Screen Control
Every critical function in the room runs from one purpose-built touch screen: powering the video wall, routing keyboard and mouse input to any connected PC, two-way audio, and expanding camera feeds across wall sections. Each action takes two taps or fewer, cutting operator response time when it matters most.
Multi-Wall Video Distribution
Independent control of up to four segmented wall sections, each driven by dedicated compute. One-touch zoom expands any single feed across an entire six-display section for rapid incident review. Mirror mode replicates rear wall content to adjacent briefing rooms for incident command, with automatic input lockout to prevent conflicts.
Built for Continuous Operation
The platform runs on a distributed architecture with no single point of failure. Every critical function has an independent fallback, and video distribution hardware is duplicated behind every display. Operators switch to backup distribution with one touch: no rebooting, no recabling, no call to IT. A hardware issue at one console never takes the room offline.
Multi-Operator Coordination
In multi-operator environments, the system actively prevents input conflicts, notifying operators in real time and requiring explicit confirmation before any control handoff. Situational awareness stays intact through shift transitions and high-pressure incidents.
4S Command Center — FAQ
How much does a SOC command center cost?
Pricing depends on wall size, display count, source inputs, and failover requirements. 4S provides fixed-fee proposals after a design consultation, with no consumption metering and no surprise line items.
Can you retrofit our existing video wall?
In most cases, yes. The 4S Command Center platform can take over control of existing display infrastructure, adding unified touch control and failover without replacing screens that still perform.
What happens if part of the system fails during an incident?
Operations continue. Every critical function has an independent fallback, and operators switch to backup video distribution with a single touch. A failure in one part of the system does not cascade.
How many operators can work the room at once?
The platform supports multi-operator environments with active conflict management. The system notifies operators in real time and requires explicit confirmation before control handoffs, so nobody fights over the same input.
Who builds and supports it?
4S Security designs, installs, and supports every Command Center deployment directly, backed by 30+ years of integration experience and technicians who average 11 years with the company.
Telemetri
Telemetri is 4S Security's unified data layer for physical security: the platform we built because the industry never gave us one. Connect a system once and its data becomes a common language across your organization, powering workflows, dashboards, and AI agents. Connect your systems, unlock your data, build what comes next.
Connect
Every system, one connection. With a growing library of 50+ connectors, including Genetec, Lenel, Milestone, Salient, Genea, and more, Telemetri integrates with the platforms you already run. Each connector normalizes events, identities, and sensor data into a single model, so a forced door and a camera analytic speak the same language.
Flow
Data in motion. Telemetri routes live events to the workflows, dashboards, and people that need them the moment they happen. Automations trigger across systems, and operators see one picture instead of five consoles.
Insights
Answers, not raw data. Built-in analytics and AI agents turn unified data into operational intelligence: the SOC Operator agent triages incidents, Visitor Intelligence tracks who is in your buildings, and the Business Analyst agent surfaces the trends leadership needs.
Reusable by Design
Every connector is built once and reused everywhere. Connect Lenel for one building and every future project, workflow, and AI agent inherits the work. Integrations stop being projects and start being assets.
