The entry window for the 2025 Security Solution Awards has been extended through Thursday, Aug. 21. This annual program celebrates proven electronic security solutions that deliver real-world results, meeting security, safety and other organizational requirements for end users. Manufacturers and vendors whose products have been deployed successfully in the field can submit their entries before the deadline.
Our panel of security industry experts will assess each product or technology solution entry based on technical merit and ease of installation. Judges look for solutions that:
- assist installing security contractors in meeting project bid, specification or design parameters
- meet regulatory, compliance or code requirements
- offer advanced system capabilities, features, functionality and user-friendly operation
- deliver dependable performance and client satisfaction across general, niche and vertical-market applications
All entries must involve projects installed or deployed within the past 18 months to qualify. Judges may review supporting documentation, such as installation reports, case studies and performance metrics.
Many manufacturers describe their products as best in class, first of their kind, revolutionary and highly impactful. Such claims carry weight only when a solution delivers reliable performance under challenging conditions and integrates smoothly into existing infrastructure. The true measure, especially when lives may be at stake, rests on how well a security solution meets the requirements of both the integrator and the end user.
How effectively does a security tool or system solve practical problems under actual field conditions?
“That is the true litmus test, and it’s why SSI founded the Security Solutions Awards,” says Dan Ferrisi, group editor, commercial and security at Emerald. “Our editors are committed to offering a platform not only for security product suppliers to showcase their wares but also for integrators to identify solutions they can utilize in their next project.”
