Commercial Security.
Simplified.

The Situation

Commercial buildings call for high levels of security to ensure the safety of personnel, visitors and possessions, sensitive documents, IT equipment and other company assets.

Consequently, easy-to-use security systems with the right capabilities and flexibility are required, enabling simple and effective management of different independent building areas, 24/7.

Integration is key

Individually, CCTV camera systems offer a visible, preventive effect. But when fully integrated with intrusion systems, the result is total security control, internally and externally.

Conversely, where one security system is already installed and another subsequently added - but not integrated - the result can be sub-optimal security.

Our proprietary iVMS-4200 software enables total security control by integrating video and intrusion in one easy-to-use platform: ProControl+.

With video and intrusion combined, details of incidents are easier to capture, helping to determine the scale of response and promote readiness for future events.

CCTV cameras

A visible deterrent often installed at key access points such as entrances and emergency exits, cameras also monitor the office environment and offer additional benefits by recording footage or images to aid investigations or for evidence.

But with such a wide choice of security cameras available, without expert advice it can be difficult to choose the best product for your situation.

Pyronix Hikvision is an expert in security cameras, globally. As such, we're perfectly placed to support you with free help and advice. Whenever you need assistance to create your total security solution - just get in touch with us.

Intrusion Systems

Theft, property crime and information security are major concerns of companies of all sizes and a versatile, flexible intrusion system is an essential component in any business security strategy.

Intrusion detection in commercial offices often involves the use of door or window contact sensors, glass break sensors or motion sensors, in combination with an alarm that sounds when forced entry is detected.

Where only basic intrusion detection is in place, there is little visible security to act as a deterrent - highly conspicuous, professional systems offer the best protection.

The Challenges

Typical operational and management issues with separate or non-integrated systems are:

1. Operating several systems

Where separate intrusion and CCTV systems are installed, users need to learn how to operate both, since each will have its own proprietary software.

This can be difficult to manage, taking more time and effort, particularly where personnel are inexperienced with such systems.

By not knowing how to operate them, false alarms can occur which may lead to unnecessary site visits by security contractors or even the police, which can result in additional costs for the company.

2. Economical solution

Commercial enterprises require economical security solutions which are easy to maintain, as well as delivering excellent intrusion detection and recorded HD footage.

Integrated, foundational and scalable security systems offer the best ROI, not only retaining but also adding new functionality when expanded.

3. Unfamiliarity with security systems

Many people are unfamiliar with alarm systems; some are even afraid to operate them.

In most situations, multiple personnel will need to be able to arm/disarm the security system to enter areas and complete their work.

Companies can therefore benefit from fully integrated camera and intrusion systems with user-friendly arming interfaces that are quick and easy to operate.

 

Keeping it simple and easy-to-use is critically important to ensure overall effectiveness.
