What is security monitoring?

Security monitoring is a collection of remote security services performed by a professional agent from a Security Monitoring Center. This can include monitoring and verifying alarms, alerting the police or fire department, and executing on your response plan. It can also include routine tasks like escorting staff via video monitoring and granting access to a building after verifying credentials.

How does alarm monitoring work?

Your security systems are monitored for activity 24/7 (or according to your needs) from a professionally staffed Security Monitoring Center. We’re able to monitor a very wide range of systems and respond rapidly to events. If there’s an alarm, an agent confirms that it’s real by contacting your on-site security teams or by reviewing footage from your video surveillance system. Once the alarm is verified, the agent contacts the police or fire department, and/or follows your response plan.

What kinds of security monitoring systems can be monitored remotely?

Securitas Technology can monitor a wide range of security systems, including fire, intrusion, video surveillance, elevator/emergency phones, hold up/panic buttons, personal emergency systems, and critical condition monitoring for power loss, temperature change, carbon monoxide (CO) detection, water detection, system malfunction, etc. These remote monitored systems ensure your organization receives real-time protection and rapid response to any security or safety event.

How does security monitoring help business?

Security monitoring systems can help you better protect your premises and people. You benefit from reduced exposure to false alarms, which can result in a fine, and having real alarms verified by our agents for police response. The quicker the police arrive, and your security response plan is activated, the higher the chances of reducing loss.

How do monitored security services help businesses maintain safety and security?

Do the Monitoring Centers close on holidays, or at night?

No! Our Monitoring Centers operate 24/7, 365 days a year, so you can have peace of mind that your business remains protected.

How does remote access control work?

When this technology is deployed alongside video surveillance, remote access control offers a person needing access to your location the ability to request access without intervention by on-site guards. The person instead contacts our Monitoring Center and shows their credentials that authorize their entry according to your designated procedures. Once verified, our operator then opens the gate or door, and can follow the visitor on camera if needed.

When are remote access services helpful?

Remote access services enable you to securely and conveniently provide access to a location without having to have a person on-site. This could be during after-hours or at locations with low traffic where in-person guarding is not warranted. Leveraging your video surveillance system, a remote agent can verify credentials and follow your procedures to remotely open a door or gate, and even monitor the visit via video if needed.

How do remote video patrols work?

Remote Tours and Remote Guarding are services Securitas Technology offers via our Security Monitoring Center. A monitoring agent initiates a remote video session on a designated schedule or monitors continuously during a defined period, to look for unusual conditions or suspicious activity. If anything happens, they will take action following your organization’s response plan.

Can remote monitored systems help keep my staff safe in vulnerable situations?

Yes, it can! In addition to 24/7 security monitoring, we offer a range of video monitoring services designed to help your staff stay safe during vulnerable situations, such as when lone working or when opening and closing the premises for the day. Our monitoring agents access live feeds from your video surveillance system to monitor for security threats, watch over employees, and help them feel safer.
