Shooter Detection Systems’ Outdoor Gunshot Detection Sensor Wins Top Honors in the Secure Campus Awards

This marks the third consecutive year that a gunshot detection solution from SDS has earned award level status

Shooter Detection Systems (SDS), an Alarm.com (NASDAQ: ALRM) company and the leading provider of gunshot detection solutions, is pleased to announce that its SDS Perimeter Outdoor Gunshot Detection System has been recognized as the winner of the Campus Security Today 2025 Secure Campus Award in the perimeter protection category.

SDS Perimeter is designed to quickly detect a gunshot in outdoor spaces and alert the proper authorities.  This marks the third consecutive year that a gunshot detection solution from Shooter Detection Systems has achieved award level status as part of the Secure Campus Awards program.

“We are deeply honored to receive this prestigious award, which reinforces our dedication to advancing life-saving technology,” said Kendra Noonan, Director of Communications for SDS. “Our outdoor gunshot detection sensors play a critical role in safeguarding open-air environments such as event venues, corporate buildings, transportation and critical infrastructure, healthcare facilities, parking areas, and school campuses. By providing actionable intelligence to first responders in the event of gun violence, we can dramatically improve emergency response times.”

SDS Perimeter leverages the company’s existing acoustic and infrared technology to accurately detect a gunshot in parking lots and outside of buildings. This solution is not a surveillance or listening device and requires no human intervention to alert gunshot activity. SDS’ gunshot detection sensors integrate with surveillance, access control, and software notification systems, ensuring enhanced situational awareness in the event of a security incident.

For more than 10 years, the Secure Campus Awards have recognized leading and innovative security solutions that help secure businesses and educational institutions. The awards program recognizes solutions in a variety of categories, including surveillance technologies, access control, and fire protection.
