Gallagher’s Command Centre Controller Upgrade tool wins Security Today New Product of the Year award

Global technology manufacturer, Gallagher, announced its Command Centre Controller Upgrade tool has secured the 2022 Security Today New Product of the Year award.

The convenient and simple-to-operate Gallagher solution won in the Access Control Software/Controllers category of the award that honors outstanding product development achievements of security equipment manufacturers.

The Controller Upgrade tool came with the latest version of Gallagher’s intelligent site management software, Command Centre v8.70. It allows an operator to find, sort, and filter controllers into groups, which can be set to upgrade now or scheduled to be run at a future date and time.

“At Gallagher, our commitment, as a cyber security responsible supplier, means we are constantly looking forward to identifying where new cyber-attacks may occur and potential vulnerabilities may exist. A cyber-attack on these systems can have extensive and far-reaching consequences, jeopardizing the safety and security of employees and visitors, corporate assets and intellectual property, or national security,” says Scott Elliott, Gallagher’s Vice President for the Americas.

“The Command Centre upgrade tool allows our customers to proactively protect their system, saving time while minimizing disruptions to business operations, safety, and security. This innovation ensures our customers have the improved ability to continuously update their systems with speed and reliability assuring that people, systems, and assets are safer and more secure than ever.”

Ralph C. Jensen, Editor-in-Chief of Security Today magazine, says, “After hosting this New Product of the Year program, I am struck with the intense effort by manufacturers, who exceed last year’s entries. We are fortunate to have so many entries and applaud every entry for the ingenuity and painstaking efforts to ensure the security business is meeting the technology challenges.”

This is the 14th year of the independently juried contest, where winners were honored in 47 product award categories.
