Because deep learning capabilities now come standard on many surveillance  cameras, organizations can run analytics at the network edge\u2014meaning they no  longer need to send raw video data to the cloud for analysis.<\/p>\n<p>This  significantly reduces bandwidth and storage needs, which could previously be  cost-prohibitive for schools grappling with budgetary limitations. Thanks to  these developments, AI-based analytics have become increasingly affordable and  accessible to schools, allowing them to make significant improvements to the  accuracy and effectiveness of their security operations. <\/p>\n<p>Having access to  these solutions is one thing but using them effectively is another\u2014especially  since AI tools are not without challenges. No technology is perfect, but when a  weapon detection system mistakes a Doritos  bag for a gun, it raises some very fair questions.<\/p>\n<p>The truth is  that while video analytics add significant value to modern security systems,  they should never be treated as a standalone solution. Rather, they are an  important part of a layered approach to security\u2014one that augments and enhances  the capabilities of human operators, rather than replacing them. AI-powered  video analytics solutions can make a significant difference for today\u2019s  campuses but understanding how to leverage them appropriately and effectively  is essential.<\/p>\n<h4>What Does AI Look Like in &#8230;<br \/>\n<br \/><a href=\"https:\/\/campussecuritytoday.com\/articles\/2026\/05\/print\/supporting-human-operators-school-security-strengthened-with-newest-technology.aspx\">Source<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Supporting Human Operators: School Security Strengthened With Newest Technology &#8212; Campus Security Today https:\/\/campussecuritytoday.com\/articles\/2026\/05\/print\/supporting-human-operators-school-security-strengthened-with-newest-technology.aspx Publish&#8230;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":249854,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"fifu_image_url":"https:\/\/campussecuritytoday.com\/-\/media\/SEC\/Security-Products\/Images\/2026\/05\/0518Print_Renihan.jpg","fifu_image_alt":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[8],"tags":[57],"class_list":["post-249853","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-technology","tag-security"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/249853"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=249853"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/249853\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":249855,"href":"https:\/\/news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/249853\/revisions\/249855"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/249854"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=249853"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=249853"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=249853"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
