on

Transforms school health and safety with advanced AI-driven surveillance to protect the mental and physical well-being of students. More use case information is now available in a new Claro Enterprise Solutions eBook.

MIRAMAR, Fla., June 26, 2024 /PRNewswire/ — Building on the robust platform’s successful track record of security enhancements with schools, Claro Enterprise Solutions announced the launch of its latest AI Video Analytics sensor that helps detect bullying and vaping on campus. As a part of its mission to build safer and smarter communities, Claro Enterprise Solutions has leveraged advancements in artificial intelligence and computer vision to deliver an innovative solution that better protects student health and safety.  

The prevalence of vaping among students poses significant health risks, including nicotine addiction, respiratory issues, and exposure to harmful chemicals.  Moreover, according to the National Center for Education Statistics, nearly 6 million students aged 12-18 reported being bullied during the school year. AI Video Analytics directly addresses these pervasive issues, aiming to mitigate the severe psychological, emotional, and physical consequences for affected students.   

An academic institution that already integrated this technology into their existing surveillance system has seen significant improvement in the health and safety of their campus. Their administrators are empowered with the tools necessary to proactively intervene in situations, when needed, allowing for more effective monitoring to protect students and maintain a safe environment for learning and development.  

Advanced Detection for Safer School Environments  

The new AI-led sensor capabilities automatically identify multiple threats such as vaping activity, aggressive or threatening sounds potentially related to physical violence, as well as device tampering to prevent vandalism.  

The algorithm in Claro Enterprise Solutions’ AI Video Analytics new feature set analyzes patterns and behaviors that may otherwise go unnoticed and delivers a user-friendly interface that can seamlessly integrate with existing surveillance infrastructures. This innovative data-driven approach provides real-time alerts to campus security teams when a disturbance or abnormality is identified to help implement targeted interventions and develop policies to improve student safety.  

Key Features and Capabilities 

Motion Sensor: Detects movement within the monitored area.Sound Sensor: Measures frequency, decibel levels, and sound patterns to identify potential acts of aggression.Vape & Smoke Sensor: An internal airflow system capable of detecting a wide range of vape and smoke-related activities.Protective Filter and Sensors: Shields against unwanted particles, detects tampering with an accelerometer, and alerts security personnel with a proximity sensor to prevent unauthorized handling.LED Indicator: Displays operational status for easy monitoring.

Enhanced Safety Standards to Build Smarter, Safer Communities 

With AI Video Analytics, Claro Enterprise Solutions aims to improve health and safety standards by proactively addressing bullying and vaping incidents on campus. Statistics show a concerning frequency of vaping and bullying among students, highlighting the immediate need for proactive measures. By leveraging real-time alerts and rapidly identifying potential vaping and bullying incidents, schools can drastically reduce response times allowing them to foster an environment where students feel protected, supported, and empowered to thrive academically. 

Claro Enterprise Solutions will attend and provide live demos of AI Video Analytics at the upcoming National School Safety Conference in Orlando, Florida, from July 29, 2024, to August 2, 2024, and will attend the National Student Safety and Security Conference in New York City from July 17, 2024, to July 19, 2024.

Keeper Security Launches Integration With Wiz to Remediate Critical Cloud Vulnerabilities

Published

on

By

With new integration, Keeper’s identity security platform remediates vulnerabilities discovered by Wiz, enabling closed-loop protection across cloud environments.

CHICAGO, June 16, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — Keeper Security, the leading zero-trust and zero-knowledge identity security and Privileged Access Management (PAM) platform, today announces a new integration with Wiz, a leading cloud and AI security platform that is now part of Google Cloud. Joining the Wiz Integration Network establishes Keeper as a remediation engine for identity security vulnerabilities discovered by Wiz, closing the loop between cloud security detection and active risk resolution. When Wiz identifies an identity-related vulnerability, spanning human users, machine identities, AI agents and database accounts, it automatically surfaces the finding in Keeper’s Cloud Security dashboard, where security teams can review and remediate each issue directly within KeeperPAM®.

As cloud environments grow more complex, organizations face an expanding attack surface driven by the rapid proliferation of Non-Human Identities (NHIs), autonomous AI agents and over-privileged service accounts. Wiz surfaces these risks with unmatched cloud visibility and Keeper provides joint customers with an automated, trusted path from discovery to remediation.

“Finding a vulnerability is the first half of the battle,” said Craig Lurey, CTO and Co-founder of Keeper Security. “By integrating with Wiz, Keeper helps customers rotate compromised credentials, enforce privileged access management and reduce over-permissioned identities, turning Wiz’s detection power into faster, more decisive risk reduction. This is the future of cloud security – detection and remediation working as one, giving security teams a clear path from vulnerability discovery to resolution across the identities and workloads that matter most.”

“We’re happy to welcome Keeper to the Wiz Integration Network,” said Oron Noah, VP of Product, Extensibility & Partnerships at Wiz. “Together, we’re helping customers connect cloud risk findings with privileged access controls, making it easier to move from discovery to remediation. By bringing cloud visibility and access management into a unified workflow, teams can better secure both human and machine identities at scale.”

At the heart of the integration is a real-time workflow that transforms Wiz’s Issues into Keeper-driven remediation actions. When a Wiz customer enables the Keeper integration, Wiz scans the cloud environment for identity security vulnerabilities within Keeper’s remediation scope. Security teams can then select a finding and execute the appropriate remediation action through KeeperPAM:

Rotate compromised credentials and vault updated secretsBring unmanaged accounts under PAM governanceReduce excessive privileges for users, service accounts and IAM rolesMap Wiz Issues to existing PAM records or onboard new resourcesSubmit resolutions back to Wiz to close the loop on each finding

This tight integration bridges the gap between cloud security detection and identity security remediation, giving security teams a single, closed-loop workflow. Rather than manually triaging Wiz Issues and separately executing remediation steps in Keeper, KeeperPAM works alongside Wiz by automatically receiving identity-related Issues and streamlining the remediation steps. For teams, this results in accelerated Mean Time To Remediation (MTTR) and a dramatically reduced window of exposure before a vulnerability can be exploited.

The integration is especially powerful in AI-native environments, where autonomous agents and service accounts can rapidly accumulate excessive permissions across cloud infrastructure. Wiz’s AI Application Protection Platform (AI-APP) detects over-privileged AI agents, insecure service configurations and other AI-native risks. Keeper serves as a designated remediation engine, enforcing least privilege policies and enabling just-in-time access controls for AI agents in response. Together, they secure the full AI lifecycle from code to runtime, without requiring manual intervention from security teams.

Key benefits include:

Streamlined Identity Remediation: When Wiz discovers an identity security vulnerability, Keeper takes action – rotating compromised credentials, enforcing PAM controls and reducing excess privileges – streamlining the steps between detection and resolution.Closed-Loop Security Workflow: Connect Wiz’s industry-leading cloud and AI vulnerability detection directly to Keeper’s privileged access management platform for a complete detect-to-remediate pipeline that operates at cloud scale.Accelerated Mean Time to Remediation: By accelerating response to identity vulnerabilities at the moment of discovery, organizations dramatically shrink the window of exposure and reduce the risk of breach escalation.Comprehensive Identity Coverage: Remediation scope covers the full range of identity types, including human users, machine identities, AI agents and database accounts, ensuring no privileged entity goes unmanaged across cloud environments.

KeeperPAM, Keeper’s cloud-native privileged access management platform, unifies password, secrets and connections management with zero-trust network access, endpoint privilege management and remote browser isolation in a single solution. Built on a zero-trust and zero-knowledge architecture, KeeperPAM provides real-time visibility, automated credential security and AI-powered session monitoring to help organizations prevent breaches and maintain compliance across hybrid and multi-cloud environments.

By connecting detection directly to remediation, Keeper and Wiz give security teams the confidence that cloud risks are not just visible, but actively resolved. KeeperPAM’s zero-trust architecture ensures every remediation action maintains a verifiable chain of custody – from Wiz’s initial finding through to Keeper’s corrective action – supporting both continuous compliance and audit readiness.

Keeper’s integration with Wiz is available now. Review the full release notes in the Keeper documentation.
