Engineering the best tech to protect.
While digital security grabs the headlines, traditional physical security and safety products and systems — as well as the essential security engineering services that power them — remain critical in both our homes and workplaces. In fact, the annual global physical security market is projected to grow to more than $211 billion by 2030, with video surveillance alone exceeding $100 billion. The need for fast and efficient, yet secure, access control software, hardware and unified systems is increasing — with AI, robots and drones now a part of the physical security and response arsenal.
Cardinal Peak’s talented team has professional physical security software engineering experience in every security touchpoint, from sensors and security video capture to automated image analysis, and cloud solutions for security camera footage and data analysis. We have developed custom video management system integrations, along with access control software and mobile apps for security professionals and end users alike. Through custom security engineering solutions, our team has helped many companies develop and complete physical security projects that have successfully kept homes and offices — and the people inside them — safe, secure, and informed.

Physical Security Product Development FAQs
What are physical security engineering services?
Physical security engineering services involve the end-to-end development of access control systems, video surveillance, and event monitoring solutions. This includes designing embedded sensors and Wi-Fi locks, engineering cloud-based server applications for business logic, and developing mobile apps that allow users and security professionals to manage credentials and monitor facilities.
What is a custom video management system (VMS) integration?
A custom video management system (VMS) is a specialized software platform engineered to collect, process, interpret, store, and distribute multiple video streams securely. Custom VMS solutions range from cloud-based architectures monitoring thousands of retail locations to localized smart applications that provide intelligent alarms and mobile video review for security operators.
What does access control software engineering entail?
Access control software engineering entails developing the embedded software for smart locks and badge readers, alongside the cloud architecture that manages permissions and security protocols. It also includes creating user-facing applications that turn smartphones into digital credentials, backed by end-to-end software quality assurance and penetration testing to ensure system integrity.
