Viria provides its customers with secure digitalisation

VIRIA IS perhaps the only company in the world that combines digital and physical security with data analytics to create services that enhance its customers’ business activities. In short, Viria Group offers security and information solutions all in one place. Its security services safeguard the customer’s business continuity and its information solutions improve the competitiveness of the customer’s enterprise. For example, enterprises using Viria’s security services can have sensors installed in access control systems, electronic surveillance systems and electronic locks.
“Sensors produce a large amount of data, which can be refined and analysed to create advantages for process development, among other things,” CEO of Viria Security Marko Järvinen says. He describes Viria as a forerunner of corporate security and information utilisation that allows its customers to sleep soundly, knowing the safety of their business is in good hands.
VIRIA IS the largest supplier of comprehensive security solutions in Finland. Digital transformation blurs the line between physical security and cyber security, creating an ever-greater need for comprehensive solutions. Brought together under one roof, a customer’s digital and physical security is more effectively managed.
“Digitalisation has a profound effect on the viability of different security solutions. Without an understanding of this blurry boundary between physical security and cyber security, it is impossible to completely protect a business,” Järvinen explains.
According to him, the most important drivers of change in physical security solutions are currently remote commands, cyber security and open systems, and Viria is well prepared for these.“We have excellent capacity to produce wellfunctioning networks, cyber security solutions– both proactive and reactive – and integrations between various systems.”
SECURITY BUSINESSES often focus on threats and warnings. Viria does the opposite, marketing its services by guaranteeing peace of mind and ease of use. It is easy to add additional layers of security, but that can quickly become a very expensive undertaking. Achieving efficient security outcomes requires knowledge of how to create intelligent, well-thought-out solutions.
“We strive to find solutions that fulfill the client’s security needs, while remaining easy to use and cost-effective. Clients benefit from Viria’s ability to integrate complex security systems into a single service. We secure people and data with smart security.”
