🛡️PSIM (Physical Security Information Management) is a separate software category in the field of security technology. PSIM software is a higher-level control system and combines the messages of all integrated subsystems. The PSIM software from easypsim is modular in design. Typically, physical security systems such as video surveillance, fire and intrusion detection systems as well as access control systems are combined in the PSIM.

🛡️PSIM processes alarms in real-time

The more security systems are used, the complexr the processing of alarm messages becomes. PSIM reduces complexity by merging and prioritizing alarm messages from every security system. When an event occurs, the user is guided step by step through the alarm processing.

This keeps a calm head, even in tricky situations.

The PSIM of easypsim is 100% developed in Switzerland. This allows the greatest flexibility and direct communication channels. The same language – all employees speak German or Swiss German – reduces misunderstandings and creates a personal closeness, which is important for the exchange during the implementation of PSIM projects.

Typical features of easypsim PSIM Suite V.8.0.0:

► Merging of different security systems (manufacturer independent)

► Processing of alarm messages in real time

► Guidance through the alarm processing process (workflow)

► simple improvement of alarm processing (workflow)

► Resilient systems (precautions to ensure operation in the event of LAN network or power supply failures).

► Access to the Video Management System (VMS)

► Remote opening of doors

► Event log

► Dead man function

► Business Continuity Management (BCM) for the maintenance of system-critical processes

► several users, individual assignment of user rights

🛡️ PSIM protects investments

All types of security systems can be integrated into the PSIM. This protects investments made in safety technology and ensures the scaling and integration of new safety systems.

🛡️ PSIM supports employees in alarm processing

During event processing, security personnel are guided through the process by the workflow. The predefined processes calm & stabilize the alarm situation and ensure that internal processes are adhered to

🛡️ PSIM uses resources more efficiently

Combining the security systems of several locations in one security center saves money by optimizing processes and using resources more efficiently.

🛡️ PSIM sends alerts to mobile devices

Video streams and alarm messages of the PSIM software can be accessed by mobile devices. This way, security staff can access all important information at any time, even outside the security control center.

🛡️ PSIM software is modular and is configured individually.

Usually the following types of safety systems are combined in the PSIM software:

• Intrusion detection systems (EMA)
• Fire alarm systems (BMA)
• Access control systems (biometric, RFID)
• Sensors from building services engineering (filling levels, lift)
• Telecommunications equipment
• Video surveillance
• Drone Defense

In each country there is a selection of safety systems that dominate the local market. In Switzerland, products from Siemens or Securiton are often used. Guardo 3000 (Siemens) or Securisafe (Securiton), for example, can be integrated into the PSIM from easypsim. In principle, all systems that have an interface (API, SDK) can be integrated into the PSIM software.

Today, due to the increasing demand of their clients, almost every manufacturer offer acces to an interface. Companies like Bosch, Honeywell, Johnson Controls, Kantech, Notifier, Siemens or Securiton already offer an API interface or SDK. The list is not exhaustive.

Basically, an API (interface for programming applications) or a Software Developer Kit (SDK is a collection of programming tools and program libraries used to develop software) should be available to create applications based on it.

API’s or SDK’s are usually provided by the manufacturers. The provision of interfaces or program tools can cause costs.

📹 Video Management Systeme (VMS) also known as video management software or video management servers are components of a video surveillance system.

Typical functions of the VMS are:

► Merging video recordings from different cameras

► Storage of video data

► Interface to view live video or access recorded video

In contrast to the VMS, PSIM integrates various security systems of different types (video surveillance, access control, intrusion detection systems, fire alarm systems, etc.). This means that alarm messages are reported directly at the moment they are triggered and can be processed cross-platform in real time.

VMS (Video Management System) is rather passive in nature. The live image from any camera can be viewed in real time, just like in PSIM. However, elements such as alarm management (workflow), which supports employees in processing alarm messages, are missing.

VMSplus is mainly used in public transport under the productname easyTRAFFIC. Usually the following systems are integrated:

• Fire alarm systems
• Emergency call systems
• License plate recognition
• Door control (connecting doors)
• Video surveillance
• Traffic facilities (traffic lights, signs, lighting)
• Fan systems

VMSplus is the little brother of PSIM. The larger the scope of the integrated systems, the closer the VMSplus software gets to the PSIM control center software. The transition between PSIM and VMSplus is smooth.

1. PSIM demonstration and getting to know each other (free).
2. Analysis of the existing security architecture. Task of the customer: Collect background information on locations & security systems (free).
3. Offer preparation and contract for preview (free).
4. Project planning and realization of the specification starts with the conclusion of the contract. The requirements specification describes how the contractor fulfils the customer’s requirements.
5. Configuration and provision of the individual PSIM software. Task of the customer: Clarify & define alarm processes for workflow.
6. Integration of the safety systems at the pilot site. Subsequent evaluation and rollout of the entire system.

Yes. easypsim offers PSIM in the cloud. PSIMcloud makes sense when a lot of small sites have to be integrated in one control center. 5G will have a decisive influence, in particular on the data transmission rate of high-resolution cameras.

easypsim is a specialst in the development of security software (PSIM & VMS) and installs alarm systems and video surveillance in mostly larger companies. The PSIM software has a modular structure and is adapted to the needs of the customer after the analysis of the security infrastructure.

The name easypsim was chosen based on the feedback of the first customer “what? it’s as simple as that?”. easypsim is a spin-off of the company Diligent IT Solutions AG and was created based on the demand for a simple PSIM solution that anyone can use.

PSIM & VMS software is 100% developed in Switzerland. This allows highest flexibility and direct communication channels. The same language – all employees speak German or Swiss German – reduces misunderstandings and creates a personal closeness, which is important for the exchange during the implementation of PSIM and VMS projects.
