Surveillance Systems

White Paper: Eyewitness Surveillance

Video surveillance systems are complex, but with proper planning and management they do not need to create undue pressure on your department. The pressure is on to get it right so you protect your business assets and not invest into an obsolete platform. Businesses in every industry around the world are benefiting from the use of video surveillance systems; how can your business harness these same benefits?  This whitepaper on “The Video Surveillance Safety Checklist,” features 16 important things to keep in mind as you set up video surveillance solutions. Some of them are: Choose the right surveillance security firm Take into account business expansion plans to build a larger surveillance system cost-effectively Know that network capabilities matter in order to select reliable, effective security surveillance Don’t equate more megapixels to better security surveillance system Now it’s easy to design and implement the video surveillance solutions necessary to secure and manage your business!

White Paper: PROMISE Technology

Performance bottlenecks in surveillance recording are serious issues & security professionals must address them in order to ensure their surveillance solution is able to perform up to an organization’s expectations. Performance bottlenecks do occur in surveillance systems, with storage solutions playing a critical role and cause of number of other factors. Without addressing the storage bottlenecks, it is useless to spend money on expensive cameras, VMS, or servers with costly processors and network interconnectivity. When it comes to video recording for security and surveillance purposes, it’s all about how quickly and reliably you can capture and retrieve video data. This whitepaper presents the causes, effects, and solutions of performance bottlenecks in surveillance video recording to security professionals, integrators, and end users. This whitepaper addresses questions like: What is the most important objective of a video surveillance deployment? What can cause bottlenecks in surveillance video recording? Why aren’t surveillance systems performing up to par? How does video recording performance impact reliability? What is driving the need for optimized performance for video recording? What can be done to alleviate bottlenecks in Video Recording?
