Security at Stadium Scale

A venue that never stands still

Hard Rock Stadium in Miami Gardens is home to the Miami Dolphins and a year-round destination for major sporting events, concerts and other global events. Its operating environment can shift quickly from day-to-day activity to the demands of a major event.

CTS supported the deployment and implementation of Verkada’s unified physical security platform across the campus, helping bring core security workflows into one cloud-managed environment.

The Challenge

Modernize without slowing the operation

Move beyond siloed systems

The legacy environment relied on on-premises infrastructure and separate systems. The stadium needed a modern platform designed for continuity and scale.

Connect critical workflows

Video security, access control, guest management, intercom and alarm workflows needed to operate in a more connected environment.

Support changing event needs

Different events bring different operating footprints. Teams needed timely visibility and a platform that could adapt as requirements changed.

The CTS Solution

A connected path to a unified platform

CTS supported deployment and implementation across the Hard Rock Stadium campus. During the migration, CTS used Verkada Command Connector to bring existing video security infrastructure into the new platform.

This approach allowed security teams to begin working from Verkada’s platform while the broader transition continued. It brought legacy and new video into a single interface during the migration and helped maintain operational continuity.

  • Campus-wide deployment and implementation support
  • Integration of existing video through Command Connector
  • A unified environment for core security workflows

Hard Rock Stadium is a marquee venue that demands a security infrastructure to match.
