. 
Summary
By integrating advanced technologies from Cisco, Logicalis, and key security ecosystem partners, WSU has established a robust framework for real world system testing while fostering an environment of applied learning and research. The project will culminate in a research report detailing the implementation and benefits of the campus security solution ultimately contributing valuable insights to system design and implementation.
Campus Security Solutions Resources
As the primary technology provider, Cisco contributes its Webex calling/collaboration suite and Meraki solutions, which are instrumental in creating an integrated security infrastructure that facilitates real-time communication and monitoring.
