Our take
HiveWatch is modernizing the security industry by bridging the gap between security-driven and tech-driven physical security systems. The data collected from its sensors and operational programs is used to improve existing installed security systems, helping businesses and organizations transition from reactive-only responses to programs that identify threats before they happen.
HiveWatch has differentiated itself from existing physical security information management (PSIM) companies by being “cloud native” from the moment of inception. This means it is able to avoid issues traditional PSIM systems face when protecting employees and business operations across a largely distributed workforce.
The company has already attracted significant attention in the security industry, and it has raised strong funding over the years which is being invested in further expansion efforts. Impressively, the company states that 95% of Americans have interacted with a product, service, or brand that is protected by HiveWatch.
