Project Goal

As a leader in cybersecurity, GM Sectec faced increasing demands for monitoring and managing vast amounts of data across multiple client platforms. Traditional tools and processes were no longer sufficient to handle the growing complexity of operations. The company sought a modern, centralized monitoring solution to enhance situational awareness, streamline decision-making, and maintain its competitive edge in the industry. The Polywall control room platform was selected to bring this vision to life.

Project Background

Polywall, a leading provider of advanced control room software solutions, delivered a turnkey video wall experience that exceeded client expectations. This comprehensive system involved the design and implementation of a medium-sized video wall consisting of multiple LCD screens configured to create a large canvas for real-time monitoring. A trusted integrator installed the video wall, ensuring a seamless and professional setup.

The solution included versatile video wall management software that allows for the seamless generation of various data sources on-demand, enabling effective monitoring and management of security processes. Multiple dashboards, endpoints of different security software, and live high-quality streams from workstations are generated on-demand, populating the video wall with high-density data by request from the user. Master interface - Polywall designer - was used for all the visualization tasks, allowing security professionals to reach the content of the monitoring room from any location of the company, using a high-quality live video wall streaming feature. Moreover, our partners also provided operators with comprehensive training programs to ensure they can utilize the system effectively and maximize its capabilities.

Thus, Polywall's user-friendly and versatile software platform facilitated the visualization and management of key performance indicators (KPIs) from diverse sources for GM Sectec. This solution empowered supervisors and operators to act swiftly and decisively from any place, enhancing operational efficiency.
