    Common Misconceptions About Security

    Thousands of small, medium and large businesses are broken into every day, with the result sometimes being catastrophic for the company. Whether opening for the first time, moving locations or simply looking to upgrade, business owners have a lot of aspects to consider. The security of their premises should be high priority on that list. Nearly 9 per cent of small businesses suffered a burglary in 2016, according to Chicago-based insurance agency Insureon. The survey revealed that a business owner could pay up to $8,000 out of their own pocket following a burglary incident - not a small price to pay. Thankfully, there are security measures a business can take to significantly lower that risk, but choosing the right option is essential. Here at Sonitrol Security of Delaware Valley, we’ve created a list of the five most common misconceptions when it comes to conventional security systems. 1 - All security companies use the same technology Most security...

    Employee Protection: Top 3 Valuable Items To Be Stolen From Your Employees

    Whether you work in a big city or in a small community, theft occurs everywhere. It’s important to know how to protect your employees and their belongings. When you’re installing your new security alarm system, consider these common items your employees own that might be stolen.  1. Bicycles Your eco-friendly employees will need extra protection from a good business surveillance system. Bike thefts rank among the top stolen items according to home insurance claims. While encouraging your employee to buy a bike lock might be the cheaper option, it’s your job to ensure the safety of the goods of your employees. Installing cameras or motion detectors from a reliable security alarm company is a great way to deter criminals and record the incident should a bicycle be stolen.  2. Mobile phones and laptops If your company utilizes technology in your day to day operations, your employees are at-risk of theft both inside and outside...

    The Global Retail Theft Barometer published by the Center for Retail Research discovered the fact that North American retail loses up to $45 billion in inventory due to inventory shrink every year. That's a shocking amount of lost value to endure every year. Believe it or not, most of this loss can be attributed to four major factors.  Employee Theft Just because someone works for a company, it doesn't mean they are any less likely to steal something.

This holds employees accountable, builds trust, and catches theft in action. Shoplifting If you own a business of any size, you need a store or office security system. People shoplift. It's going to happen no matter what you do. Still, office security systems with audio and...

    The Benefits of Access Control Systems and How They Can Help Your Business

    Security is an important feature of every business. Knowing that your employees, records, and assets are all properly protected offers both peace of mind and protection from future losses.  The market for commercial security systems has grown exponentially with the advancement of access control technology. With all of the various products available, it can be overwhelming to determine which ones are inherently beneficial.  Many companies and businesses have a restricted access room which is only accessible to certain employees. These organizations often find access control systems to be necessary measures to building security. An access control system is a way to restrict access to a certain room, or even entire building, electronically. Many organizations are making the switch to access control systems for many reasons. Key-related headaches disappear If a building contains over 500 employees and each of them has their own key to a certain office, data room, or point of entry, then that...

    When you own a company, you realize how valuable your employees are to you and your business overall. That's why you need to do whatever you can do to keep them safe. here are some ways you can do just that. Keep Your Employees Aware Just like it's important to be aware of your surroundings while you're out in public, it's also important to be aware of your surroundings in the workplace. Unfortunately, criminals will likely attempt to commit their acts using the element of surprise, so it can be very hard to predict when danger is going to strike. Let your employees know that it's okay to be cautious, and if they feel uncomfortable in a situation or if they suspect any suspicious behavior, authorities can, and should, be called. Even if the incident ends up being nothing, it's better to be safe than sorry.  Install a Commercial Security System Installing a security...

    Eyes Inside the Rise of Organized Retail Crime

    Estimates suggest that 67% of burglaries can be prevented by installing video surveillance business security systems. This is, or rather was good news. Now, however, a new form of theft is occurring with increasing frequency. Organized Retail Crime (ORC) costs the retail industry $30 billion per year, and a shocking 97% of retail stores have admitted to being a victim of ORC.  The Lifting Strategy Simple shoplifting is generally a cut and dried case. A store catches the thief in action, they are given a slap on the wrist, and everyone moves on with their lives. ORC is a different ballgame. Lifters are not independent agents, but rather more like contracted employees of a grander scheme.  The way it works is a group of lifters flood one retail location for a certain amount of time. When it gets too hot (too much attention) they leave, letting the store owner believe they solved the problem. If any...
