CCS has implemented an inegrated intrusion alarm video surveillance solution for one of our San Diego customers to help prevent future break-ins.
What’s Better than an Alarm System?
A customer in the Life Sciences industry is building a new facility and experienced a break-in while under construction. They did not have any security at the time, so CCS was contracted to install an intrusion alarm system that used cellular communications while the site was under construction. After the alarm installation this customer was broken into a second time, and although the DSC intrusion alarm worked correctly, the customer was concerned that their property was a “target” and would continue to experience break-ins. Looking for a more pro-ative security deterrent, CCS proposed a camera system utilizing VideoIQ’s state of the art video analytics in combination with video monitoring by ViewpointCRM.
A Solution That Works….Pro-actively!
Our solution includes five VideoIQ encoders with built-in video analytics programmed to trigger an alarm condition when specific scheduled rules are violated. When a rule is violated, Viewpoint is alerted and an operator immediately connects to the camera to “see” what is happening. Using on-site speakers installed by CCS, the Viewpoint operator is able to “Talk-down” to the intruder to alert them that they are trespassing and the Police will be dispatched with their description. The operator is able to watch the scene live and communicate the situation to the police or the customer. Additionally, the “video transaction” is recorded by Viewpoint and emailed to our customer for review the following day.
This pro-active solution is an excellent example of how the right design with the right technology can cost-effectively solve security challenges that were almost impossible to address just a few short years ago.
