This accolade is awarded to trailblazers in the security industry, recognizing Identiv’s innovative security project at Caritas Village in Santa Rosa, Calif.

Caritas Village, managed by Catholic Charities of Santa Rosa, is a comprehensive project aimed at supporting the unhoused in Sonoma County, California. Identiv partnered with integrator Blakeslee Electric to develop a holistic security solution that served the needs of a diverse group of stakeholders, from facility employees and residents to the wider community.

Identiv’s award-winning project included the implementation of its robust, trusted Hirsch Velocity Security Management System, Hirsch Mx Controllers, Velocity Vision Video Management System (VMS), uTrust TS Readers, and uTrust TS Cards.
