Security cameras are vital for protecting your home or business. How do they work? What are the different types?
Commercial security cameras come in various types, each designed to fulfill specific surveillance needs.
AI-enhanced video has revolutionized the field of security systems. These efficient, intelligent tools offer unparalleled capabilities for monitoring and safeguarding our surroundings.
Misusing facial recognition data can have severe consequences, such as identity theft or unauthorized access to personal information.
Think from a criminal’s perspective. Don’t just ask yourself, “how many cameras do I need,” ask yourself “what vulnerabilities does my business have that a criminal could take advantage of?”
One of the most significant advantages of security video analytics is its ability to prevent and detect crime. Surveillance cameras equipped with AI can monitor large areas and respond in real time to security threats.
The benefits of keeping your CCTV cameras clean means that when you need them the most, they’ll be there for you.
Clearly, an electric fence isn’t something you can install and forget about. The questions that remain are—does your business need one, and is it enough on its own?
If you’re considering a dome camera vs. a bullet camera for your business, what you choose depends on what you need.
Given that it takes seconds to saw off the piece from under the car, you can make some big bucks in a night if you’re a crook with a hacksaw. Are all cars potential victims of catalytic converter thieves?
Unlike traditional cameras that may struggle in adverse weather conditions or when faced with dense foliage, thermal imaging remains consistent.
Older security cameras that include audio recording features usually have an add-on microphone to capture sound. By comparison, more advanced audio surveillance cameras have sound capabilities built right in.
Pipeline cameras equipped with advanced monitoring capabilities enable rapid response to emergencies.
One of the most common questions we hear is: How much does a security camera monitoring service cost? A remote video monitoring service costs a fraction of what an onsite security guard does. You can get much more bang for your buck at a much more affordable price using a camera monitoring company like Pro-Vigil. Here’s how this works.
The truth is most criminals seem to thrive in darkness. And most remote or rural areas with sprawling locations have tons of pitch black nooks and crannies for them to hide in. But that doesn’t mean these locations have to go unprotected.
Security camera data usage is becoming more of an issue as the internet becomes increasingly crowded.
Instead of wondering what video images await you when you make it into the office, you can watch your CCTV camera online from your cell phone. Here’s how to monitor your business CCTV cameras from anywhere using the internet, an app, and your cell phone.
Prior to the widespread adoption of broadband Internet, analog CCTV was the only option. These cameras still exist today, but they work quite differently from IP cameras.
CCTV camera issues could hinder your ability to monitor your business. Here are some common problems with CCTV cameras and how to resolve them.
