Macquarie University in Sydney, Australia has chosen Argus Global’s iTrak incident reporting and risk management solution.
The iTrak installation at Macquarie marks the first post-secondary school in Australia to use the system, but the solution is already being used at several universities in the United States. Argus and partner iView Systems been working hard to expand iTrak’s reach into the Australian market, and has already seen installations in Massey, O’Tago, Canterbury and Victoria University of Wellington in New Zealand.
The iTrak solution uses facial recognition biometrics, enabling subject profiling, the ability to provide complete investigations management and reporting, interview management, risk analysis and assessment, personnel management and briefing log entries. The solution is also modular, providing customers with the option to add and expand functionality over time.
iTrak automates and integrates physical security information and management reporting into a single user interface. The software enables users to perform a wide range of transactions required by security, surveillance and risk management departments, including daily log reporting, incident reporting and management.
