About the Company: Co-founded by Sam Joseph, CEO, and Sagar Honnungar, Hakimo provides a Security Information and Event Management (SIEM) system for physical security. Hakimo is a technology company that integrates into physical security programs to improve the efficiency of access control monitoring and reduce the operating cost of expensive security command centers. Hakimo AI software eliminates the mundane tasks of monitoring cameras and sifting through alarms so your security team can focus their time on higher-value tasks such as travel risk management, intelligence, emergency response, and problem-solving to create a safe environment for the company employees. The company uses computer vision to analyze camera footage corresponding to every badge event and correlates that with badging data to raise alerts in real-time.
