While it seems obvious that those who are famous could face higher risks, threats are also greater for those who work in “the sectors that are angry—that get people riled up,” says Michael Evanoff, who headed the U.S. government’s Bureau of Diplomatic Security from 2017 to 2020 and is now CSO of Verkada. “These are pharmaceuticals, energy, healthcare and insurance.”
Verkada Command is a cloud-based, integrated security platform that empowers business leaders to improve and simplify their physical security program. Verkada Command connects IoT devices, data and insights from across the organization — whether it’s video security cameras and access control, or point-of-sale systems and active employee directories — that empower leaders with actionable insights and proactive alerts that help to create safer, smarter and more connected spaces. Because Command is hosted in the cloud, users benefit from automatic firmware updates and an infinitely scalable architecture that easily integrates with other solutions and systems via APIs. Command also delivers powerful AI capabilities, including features like AI-Powered Search, which reduces the time needed to locate video footage from hours to seconds.
A break-in and arson at Pennsylvania Gov. Josh Shapiro’s residence has cast scrutiny on its security, as authorities work to understand how a suspect was able to enter the home and escape without being apprehended – even as officers searched for him.
Verkada started in 2016 by building the best camera for physical security teams, and has since evolved into a full suite of security products for buildings. Filip takes us inside Verkada’s rapid growth to almost a billion in annual revenue, over 2,000 employees, and raising capital from investors like Sequoia, Meritech, First Round, General Catalyst, and Next47.
