An In-Depth Look at Remote Monitoring
Crime is on the news every day. Personal crimes and commercial crimes seem to be on the rise. Some criminals have been emboldened by managing to escape being caught. Therefore, commercial remote monitoring is vital to your business.
What is Commercial Remote Monitoring?
Remote monitoring is a means to proactively observe your commercial property 24 hours a day. This is accomplished using your security system, CCTV (closed-circuit television), and/or digital (IP) service. It ensures peace of mind that your resources are watched and secured. The Security Center, Inc. offers 24/7 monitoring to our Texas and New Mexico clients with advanced technology and well-trained professionals.
What are The Benefits of 24/7 Remote Monitoring?
The advantages of remote monitoring are numerous. While you may have on-site security, those people cannot always monitor all areas. With the use of remote monitoring, professionals can watch all areas without distractions.
- You will have greater site coverage. Professional surveillance professionals can watch multiple areas of your property simultaneously. With strategically placed cameras, a greater view is possible, even for those hard-to-see areas.
- On-site security often has behaviors or patterns that can be observed by smart criminals to strike when a guard is away.
- Human and vehicle traffic can be managed and monitored via remote monitoring. Someone sneaking by security, or a suspicious vehicle can be seen and stopped before it becomes a problem. Loudspeakers and motion detectors can deter unwanted guests.
- Live remote surveillance costs less than security guard services while the viewed coverage increases.
- Response time is quicker. The loudspeaker can be used immediately to deter suspicious activity, and police will be alerted immediately. This speed can often result in an arrest.
- Less loss and less liability equal money saved. Criminals can be stopped, preventing financial loss. Even weather losses can be lessened when a monitored property is noticed having wind or storm damage.
How Can a Professional Security Team Boost Monitoring Capabilities?
Your traditional security protocols have been effective and still are. Yet each has its limitations. Security guards can only be in one place at a time. Cameras are useful if they are being watched and have zero blind spots. Alarms are helpful when a crime is happening but do little to deter the perpetrator prior to the attempt.
With remote monitoring, 24 hours a day, your assets are always being watched. Your on-site personnel will become more efficient because they have the reassurance that all areas are being watched while they are elsewhere in the building. If you do not have much or any of a night-time staff, your remote monitoring can cover your premises thoroughly. Another plus is that your night staff, like maintenance and cleaning staff will feel protected, allowing them to do their jobs thoroughly without worry.
