Cutting costs and enhancing security

August 2024 Surveillance

[Sponsored] Visual verification, powered by the Secutel Visual Verifier (VV), is at the heart of modern security solutions. This advanced system detects and verifies intrusions and physical attacks and ensures comprehensive protection in areas where high-value losses are at risk. Here is how it cuts long-term costs and enhances security.

24/7 monitoring and detection: The VV's ‘Always On’ feature ensures round-the-clock monitoring, providing continuous surveillance without requiring manual checks. This wired system offers push technology, tamper and cell jamming detection, and even alerts for power failures, guaranteeing constant vigilance.

Cost-effective through reliability and automation: With battery backups lasting up to 72 hours, date and time-stamped events, and system health monitoring, the VV significantly reduces the need for frequent maintenance and emergency responses. Automated arming/disarming and remote management further cut labour costs and enhance operational efficiency.

Advanced communication and data security: IP communications over Ethernet, with dual SIM backups and Sigfox network support, ensure reliable data transmission. The instant transmission of encrypted, high-resolution photos to the control room eliminates the dependency on on-site storage, reducing hardware costs and providing quick, secure access to critical information.

Enhanced surveillance capabilities: Cameras with built-in flash, accelerometers, and audio threshold exceptions capture high-quality, full-colour images even in low visibility. This rapid, clear, and secure image-capturing capability ensures that potential threats are promptly identified and addressed.

In summary, the Secutel Visual Verifier enhances security through advanced detection and monitoring and reduces long-term costs by automating processes, ensuring reliable data transmission, and minimising the need for frequent maintenance and emergency responses.
