This is a great description, but I feel I must explain further. A Security System that is truly integrated has two or more types of Electronic Security connected and intelligently interacting. An example is a Door Access Control System tied into an Alarm System panel. The trend among Security Manufacturers has been toward developing integrated products which can be used for many different functions, often at the same time.
The benefits of Security Integration are cost reduction and improved or customized functionality. Therefore, you can see why many Security Installation companies are calling themselves “Integrators,” because the term is synonymous with added-value and ingenuity.
