Abstract

Certain embodiments of systems and methods for managing security data are provided. In one embodiment, a system can be provided. The system can include at least one processor operable to execute one or more computer-executable instructions. The system can also include at least one memory operable to store the one or more computer-executable instructions. The instructions can be operable to: collect status information associated with a plurality of sites monitored by a security service provider; generate, based at least in part upon the collected information, at least one graphical presentation associated with the plurality of sites, the at least one presentation comprising one or more respective selectable status indicators associated with each of the plurality of sites; and output, by the monitoring system, the generated at least one presentation.

Claims

1. A computer-implemented method, comprising:

collecting, by a monitoring system comprising one or more computers, status information associated with a plurality of sites monitored by a security service provider;

generating, by the monitoring system based at least in part upon the collected information, at least one graphical presentation associated with the plurality of sites, the at least one presentation comprising one or more respective selectable status indicators associated with each of the plurality of sites; and

outputting, by the monitoring system, the generated at least one presentation.

2. The computer-implemented method of claim 1, further comprising:

receiving, by the monitoring system, a user selection of a status indicator;

generating, by the monitoring system based at least in part upon the received of the user selection, a presentation comprising detailed information associated with the selected status indicator; and

outputting, by the monitoring system, the generated presentation comprising detailed information.

3. The computer-implemented method of claim 1, wherein the one or more status indicators correspond to a respective request for predefined security data.

4. The computer-implemented method of claim 1, wherein at least one of the status indicators corresponds to at least one of:

security guard data, consent form compliance, testing compliance, eligibility compliance, or training compliance.

5. The computer-implemented method of claim 1, wherein at least one status indicator corresponds to invoice accuracy, and the method further comprises:

receiving a selection of the at least one status indicator; and

providing invoice or billing information corresponding to the selected indicator.

6. The computer-implemented method of claim 1, wherein at least one status indicator corresponds to consent form compliance, and the method further comprises:

receiving a selection of the at least one status indicator; and

providing identifying information corresponding to one or more personnel.

7. The computer-implemented method of claim 1, wherein each of the plurality of sites comprise respective locations monitored by the security service provider.

8. The computer-implemented method of claim 1, further comprising:

transmitting the generated at least one presentation to one or more user devices associated with an entity associated with a respective location monitored by the security service provider.

9. The computer-implemented method of claim 1, further comprising:

receiving status information from at least one of a customer device, a guard device, a data storage device, a memory, or a device associated with the security service provider.

10. The computer-implemented method of claim 1, further comprising:

restricting output of the collected information based at least in part on user access rights or location access rights.

11. A system, comprising:

at least one processor operable to execute one or more computer-executable instructions; and

at least one memory operable to store the one or more computer-executable instructions;

the instructions operable to;

collect status information associated with a plurality of sites monitored by a security service provider;

generate, based at least in part upon the collected information, at least one graphical presentation associated with the plurality of sites, the at least one presentation comprising one or more respective selectable status indicators associated with each of the plurality of sites; and

output, by the monitoring system, the generated at least one presentation.

12. The system of claim 11, wherein the instructions are further operable to:

receive a user selection of a status indicator;

generate, based at least in part upon the received of the user selection, a presentation comprising detailed information associated with the selected status indicator; and

output the generated presentation comprising detailed information.

13. The system of claim 11, wherein the one or more status indicators correspond to a respective request for predefined security data.

14. The system of claim 11, wherein at least one of the status indicators corresponds to at least one of:

security guard data, consent form compliance, testing compliance, eligibility compliance, or training compliance.

15. The system of claim 11, wherein at least one status indicator corresponds to invoice accuracy, and the instructions are further operable to:

receive a selection of the at least one status indicator; and

provide invoice or billing information corresponding to the selected indicator.

16. The system of claim 11, wherein at least one status indicator corresponds to consent form compliance, and the instructions are further operable to:

receive a selection of the at least one status indicator; and

provide identifying information corresponding to one or more personnel.

17. The system of claim 11, wherein each of the plurality of sites comprise respective locations monitored by the security service provider.

18. The system of claim 11, wherein the instructions are further operable to:

transmit the generated at least one presentation to one or more user devices associated with an entity associated with a respective location monitored by the security service provider.

19. The system of claim 11, wherein the instructions are further operable to:

receive status information from at least one of a customer device, a guard device, a data storage device, a memory, or a device associated with the security service provider.

20. The system of claim 11, wherein the instructions are further operable to:

restrict output of the collected information based at least in part on user access rights or location access rights.
