Enterprise - Finance, Industry and Retail
All major organisations whether in the industrial, retail or financial sectors need to address the security and safety of their assets and personnel. This requirement has led such organisations to investigate ways in which they can perform surveillance and monitoring at their own sites. Video and audio surveillance is now widely used to allow organisations to mitigate their risk from theft or damage and from prosecution.
Surveillance in the enterprise environment can improve:
- Visible security
- Maintain customer confidence in the organisation by reducing the perceived risk
- Deter threats from terrorism by visible investment in surveillance
- Performance monitoring
- Monitoring customer behaviour e.g. queues in stores, or office environments
- Ensure staff are following business processes and health and safety guidelines
- Asset protection
- Respond rapidly to vandalism, theft and misconduct
- Control and monitoring of goods and supplies
- Asset recovery
- Identification of criminals and rapid forensic investigation of thefts or attempted theft
- Security and safety personnel
- Protect and monitor personnel
- Respond rapidly to changed risks and threats
- Corporate security
- React to events quickly, effectively and with more information hence reducing panic and uncertainty
- Challenge nuisance legal claims to the organisation
