What is a digital security logbook?

A digital security logbook lets security officers record and track events that occur on a site: incidents, anomalies, alarms, patrols or call-outs. Each event is time-stamped and kept in a searchable history.

What is the difference between a paper occurrence book and a digital security logbook?

A digital security logbook replaces the paper register with digital event tracking. Officers can log incidents in the field, add information or photos and quickly share events with the relevant managers.

How does a security officer report an incident?

The officer records the event from their workstation or mobile, specifies the location and circumstances and can add photos. The incident is then logged in the digital security logbook with its date and time.

Can you access the history of security incidents?

Yes. Recorded events remain available in the security logbook, so you can retrieve the facts, their date, time, location and author, for example to prepare a report or analyse an incident.

How can security officers be guided during an incident?

Officers have direct access to the security guides and instructions stored in the platform, so they can apply the right procedure for each incident.
