Boosting Safety and Efficiency Across the State of Mississippi

Strengthening Statewide Security

The State of Mississippi embarked on a major initiative to improve security and operational visibility across more than 150 state boards, commissions, and agencies, supporting thousands of citizens who access government services daily.

The Challenge

Mississippi’s legacy video systems spread across disparate platforms with analog infrastructure lacked the centralized control, scalability, and visibility needed to secure state facilities efficiently. Officials needed a solution that could consolidate surveillance, preserve existing technology investments, and support long-term growth.

The Solution

After evaluating multiple video management systems based on total cost of ownership, scalability, performance, and support, the State selected Salient’s CompleteView VMS. Its open architecture allowed the State to use much of its existing infrastructure while building toward a unified, centralized platform under internal control.

Inside the full case study, you’ll learn how Mississippi:

• Centralized video surveillance across 150+ agencies

• Gained greater administrative control and uniform system management

• Preserved taxpayer investment by leveraging existing cameras and infrastructure
