Video Surveillance

Video Surveillance – an integral layer in your security system

Video surveillance is an integral layer of modern security systems for both residential and commercial properties. As concerns about safety and crime continue to rise, many individuals and businesses install surveillance systems as a proactive measure to protect their assets and loved ones. These systems are not only a deterrent against potential crime but also are a vital role in enhancing overall situational awareness.

Cloud-based vs. On-site Recording

Many Options to Choose From

When it comes to managing physical security for commercial properties, organizations often face a choice between on-premise security systems and cloud-based solutions.

On-Premise Security: An on-premise solution, also known as on-prem security, is housed within the physical building where security systems are installed. This setup involves physical servers or digital video recorders capturing and storing data from security cameras, access control systems, sensors, and alarms, all transmitted over an internal network. Security personnel review and analyze the data on monitors located on-site.

Cloud-Based Security: In contrast, cloud security systems capture and store sensitive data from the same security sources but house them in a secure data center located in the cloud. The data is transmitted over the Internet. Security teams can access this data via the Internet and review it on various fixed and mobile devices, whether on-site or remotely.
