Ajax Systems continues to grow on local markets, delivering the benefits of its solutions to security businesses and their customers worldwide. A significant milestone in this journey is obtaining the VSÖ certificate — the seal of quality for the Austrian market, a major player in the DACH region.
Let’s explore what this certification entails and what it means for Ajax Systems and its local partners.
What is VSÖ
The Verband der Sicherheitsunternehmen Österreichs (VSÖ), or Association of Austrian Security Companies, is an independent organization committed to enhancing the quality of security products and services in Austria. For over 40 years, VSÖ has been setting security guidelines and approving products that comply with both local and international regulations.
Being one of the key local regulators, VSÖ sets the benchmark for security products and services in Austria. Recognized by insurance companies, security professionals, and businesses, VSÖ approval makes certified products more attractive on the Austrian market.
How security systems are certified
VSÖ is known for its rigorous certification process, ensuring only the most reliable security solutions receive approval. As part of this process, the VSÖ certification body conducted a comprehensive audit of Ajax Systems and its equipment, verifying its Grade 3 compliance. This certificate reaffirms that Ajax products meet the strictest industry requirements for protecting high-risk facilities.
VSÖ certification benefits
The key advantage of the VSÖ certificate is that Ajax security systems are now officially recognized by all insurance companies in Austria for business-sector installations. This makes partnering with Ajax Systems even more profitable for security professionals, as they can offer certified solutions that meet insurance requirements.
Beyond this, there are other ways in which all parties can benefit from VSÖ-certified products:
- Security businesses: offering certified solutions helps Ajax partners build customer trust, strengthen their brand reputation, and expand their portfolio with new projects, such as installations at high-risk facilities.
- Customers: choosing VSÖ-compliant products means proven reliability, greater peace of mind, and access to insurance benefits.
- Ajax: VSÖ certification further reinforces the quality and reliability of Ajax products, helping the company stand out from competitors and build stronger partnerships with local businesses.

Ajax has obtained VSÖ certificates for a wide range of wired Grade 3 products. At the time of publication, these include:
