The days of installing a CCTV system and calling it a day are over. The newest systems can use analytics and facial recognition to identify intruders, alerting you when something untoward happens. It may be time for an upgrade on your security system.
CCTV cameras are an effective deterrent against crime. They can be used to monitor building entrances, parking areas, warehouse bays, perimeters and any other areas that need protection. CCTV technology has been in use for several decades now and it has evolved quickly to become more sophisticated and robust.
Access control systems are used to control who has access to a building. These systems can be manual or automated, and they use different types of technology such as ANPR, magnetic cards, codes or biometrics (fingerprint scans). An access control system can be used in conjunction with your CCTV security cameras if you want to monitor who enters and exits your premises.
Video analytics is a technology that uses software to analyse video footage and detect anomalies, or events that could be of interest to you. The system can then alert you when there is something worth looking at, saving you time and effort.
Video analytics can be used in many ways. Mainly it is used to help security staff monitor large areas more efficiently such as a parking area. It’s also helpful to detect when someone has entered restricted areas or left them without authorisation. This can be a visitor who has not signed out or an employee who hasn't clocked out. Or more likely, somebody that has gained access without permission and is freely moving around the premises.
Using CCTV cameras to protect your business is a great way to deter intruders. CCTV cameras can be used to monitor employees, customers, and public spaces. They can also be used outside of the building or inside if needed.
CCTV Security systems are a great way to project your business but only if you have a system that is fit for purpose. It may be time for an upgrade on your security systems.
