Cisco Physical Security Business Unit vice president Geetha Dabir said the need to protect critical assets is driving the demand for a more efficient use of physical security technologies powered by next-generation services.
"With the deployment of Cisco connected physical security solutions including Cisco Video Surveillance Media Servers, Banka Postanska Stedionica is helping to ensure that its customers and employees are protected, while streamlining operations, improving business efficiency and cutting costs," Dabir added.
Deployed at its headquarters in Belgrade and across a network of over 40 branches in Serbia, the bank aims to improve the protection of clients and employees, making operation more efficient, and reducing costs.
The network connects 400 cameras, most of which are high-resolution digital Cisco IP video surveillance cameras placed both indoors and outdoors while the video streams from any branch can be monitored from a PC in the central office or any other branch on the network with the Internet Protocol (IP) network.
The bank has also implemented other applications that include Cisco Borderless Network Architecture and Cisco Unified Computing System to integrate data and voice communication, customer relationship management and data center on a single and secure network platform.
A state-owned financial services group, Banka Postanska Stedionica has more than 2 million customers and 1,500 employees.
