Feel Like Your Company Has Never Been Safer Thanks To Verified Commercial Security Systems
Running or owning business property entails a daunting amount of responsibility, and with it comes the threat of theft. As security systems have improved in an attempt to dissuade more crimes, those committing them have also evolved their methods in order to compensate. Because robbers can innovate and think on their feet, the lack of a human factory has always been the downfall of regular commercial security systems.
Simple alarm and card access systems are very common but cannot guarantee crime prevention. When an alarm is tripped, the system automatically contacts the police. Unfortunately there is a significant chunk of time between the initial warning signal and when officers actually reach the location, offering the opportunity for the culprits to escape.
Even worse is that in the vast majority of alert activation cases, police are wasting their time considering that 94% to 98% of them are false alarms. It should come as no surprise that law enforcement may not go above and beyond in these situations when at least two officers are required to investigate a scene for 20 minutes in order to confirm it was an invalid warning. These commercial security systems can sometimes prove to be more of a burden than anything else.
Luckily for cops, verified business security systems have adopted new practices to increase efficiency. These programs couple their alarms with professional operators on standby at all times. When a signal is triggered, the officials can monitor the premises live with high quality audio and video measures to find out exactly what is happening. They can then confirm whether the alarm was justified enough to call the police, or simply a false warning and avoid the hassle.
When there is a legitimate threat, the instant access that these systems offer can warn the police in time for them to actually catch the intruder if he hasn’t already fled the scene out of fear of the alarms. Even with 50% of convicted burglars with no plan of attack admitting they would discontinue the job if they realized there was an alarm, the other half of thieves could still attempt to steal plenty of inventory.
With a mix of live audio and surveillance video linked directly to professional operators, there has never been a more fail-safe commercial security system available. The implementation of verified systems can reduce inventory shrink as well as ensure a safe work environment for employees. There is no need to let out-of-date security measures hold your company back.
