Gallagher Security wins Product of the Year – Alarm Systems at the 2025 Australian Security Industry Awards

Melbourne, Australia – Gallagher Security is celebrating another win for the High Sec Controller 7000 (High Sec C7000), following the 2025 Australian Security Industry Awards in Melbourne on Thursday, 30 October.

The team were thrilled to accept the Product of the Year – Alarm Systems Award, marking the High Sec C7000’s third prestigious accolade since its release, at one of the Australian security industry’s biggest awards events.

Organised by ASIAL and held at Melbourne’s Park Hyatt, the event combined three industry awards programmes including the Australian Security Industry Awards, the Outstanding Security Performance Awards (OSPA), and the Australian Security Medals Awards, to celebrate excellence and achievement across the security industry.

Neil Jarvis, Gallagher Security Sales Manager – Victoria and Tasmania, enjoyed the annual celebration evening and the opportunity to recognise excellence across Australia’s security sector.

“We are incredibly proud to have been acknowledged alongside our security industry peers,” says Neil.

“It’s always inspiring to see the calibre of success and examples of incredible innovation across the industry. We were also pleased to sponsor the OSPAs Outstanding Security Consultant Award this year, with Intelligent Risks taking home a well-deserved win.

“We were humbled to take home the Product of the Year – Alarm Systems Award, reflecting Gallagher’s ongoing commitment to protecting what matters most.”

Craig Schutte, Executive Vice President for APAC and IMEA, says the win is a testament to Gallagher’s commitment to excellence and delivering innovative solutions to End Users.

“In 2025, Gallagher launched the High Sec C7000 – a next-generation access control solution purpose-built for high-assurance environments,” says Craig.

Built in New Zealand, the High Sec C7000 delivers uncompromising security with enhancements like Secure Boot for trusted firmware, Trusted Execution Environment (TEE) for software integrity and key protection, and Immutable Identity to prevent device cloning - meeting the evolving needs of government, defence, and critical infrastructure.

“The High Sec C7000 is already in use across several high-security government environments, where it has demonstrated exceptional reliability and performance."

Craig says the ASIAL Award follows two recent global wins for the High Sec C7000, after it received a GOVIES Government Security Award for Access Control - Software/Controllers and a Fortress Cybersecurity Award in the Operational Technology category.

“This recognition reflects Gallagher’s commitment to delivering secure, unified architecture. It also affirms our products like the High Sec C7000 are leading the way for the industry,” says Craig.
