Video Surveillance & Access Control Systems
It’s so often these days that businesses are only thinking about the digital side of security.
Today’s buzzwords—ransomware, cybercriminal, phishing, etc—leave business owners more worried about their firewalls and anti-virus solutions than they are about their physical and conventional security solutions.
Don’t forget to take the other side of security into account.
If you run a business that has a lot of interaction between potential customers and your products, then you need to do your part to deter thieves.
A combination of video surveillance and access control is one of the best ways to do so.
Why Do You Need Video Surveillance?
Video surveillance remains an undeniably effective way to promote a safe work environment for your staff and secure business for your clients.
With a functioning video surveillance system in place, your employees and clients can be confident that they’re safe while at your place of business.
Don’t forget that, in the event of a theft, your video surveillance system will give you a lot to offer law enforcement in finding the perpetrator and bringing them to justice. Clear footage stored safely on your hard drive and easily navigable by date makes follow-up as simple as can be.
Is Your Surveillance System Proactive?
The fact is that finding a modern security solution isn’t that difficult.
There are plenty of vendors out there that offer smart-enabled camera systems, app-based lock and sensor management solutions, and more.
The problem with these systems is that they are entirely reactive.
You only learn about an incident after it’s happened. Wouldn’t it be better if your business’ security system prevented an incident?
Introducing ATG Protect
Alvarez Technology Group has partnered with Deep Sentinel to bring you ATG Protect.
This service equips you with fully monitored and fully managed physical security systems, at an 80%+ cost savings over an in-house monitoring staff or security guard service.
AI Video Monitoring
High Resolution 4K video cameras stream to a local Artificial Intelligence engine that actively identifies potential threats.
Live Guards On-Call
Guards intervene and engage when alerted of threats by the AI system.
Instant Response
Guards can engage potential criminals with two-way audio to scare them away as well as contact local authorities within seconds if needed.
The Superior Surveillance System
ATG Protect’s average response time to an incident is less than five seconds. Can you say the same about the simple security cameras you have set up right now?
While traditional security systems only defend against conventional burglary (just 5% of on-premise crime), ATG Protect is effective in protecting you from:
- Trespassing
- Vandalism
- Burglary
Full onsite warranties make it easy to ensure your equipment is always working properly and protecting your property.
What About Access Control?
The other half of the physical security equation is Access Control, which adds crucial safeguards to any points of egress at your place of business. It keeps the wrong people from getting in.
We will help you implement and maintain these essential access control elements:
- Perimeter and Interior
- Door and Gate Access
- Emergency Call Box
- Restricted Key System
- Visitor Management
- Video Intercoms
- Networked Door Locks
- Panic Buttons
What Does Access Control Do For You?
In addition to enhancing your physical security, Access Control provides a range of benefits, including:
- Helps keep employees honest
- Eliminates the need for physical keys
- Allows for an audit of access—Who? When? Why?
- Protects the safety of the inventory
- Helps develop trust with clients
Comprehensive Physical Security
When combined, ATG Protect and Access Control will create a robust defense for your physical premises. One keeps an eye on everyone coming and going, and the other ensures only the right people can enter in the first place.
There is so much to consider when it comes to your business’s physical security—why bother managing it on your own when you could have Alvarez Technology Group take care of it for you?
