Virtual Perimeter Guard For Proactive Security
Prevent break-ins, vandalism, loitering, and panhandling at your facilities with our autonomous voice-down solution that sees suspicious activity on your perimeter and responds immediately with voice commands and warning lights. Automatically escalate persistent threats to our U.S.-based iSOC for live remote intervention.
Perimeter Security is a Challenge
- Consumer-facing businesses face significant security blind spots in exterior areas surrounding the store, such as parking lots, loading docks, and alleyways.
- These areas often lack proper surveillance cameras, sufficient lighting, and monitoring, making them vulnerable to theft, vandalism, and loitering.
- Entrances, exits, and delivery points pose challenges for effective monitoring, potentially allowing unauthorized access and unreported incidents.
- Panhandling, open-air drug use, and homeless encampments drive away customers and burden staff.
- Managing the influx of deliveries, unauthorized parking, or movement at drop-off locations after business hours can create safety hazards and security risks.
- Securing outdoor inventory showcased outside the store entrance is always a challenge.
Autonomous Voice-Down with AI-Enabled Cameras
Virtual Perimeter Guard uses AI to detect people and vehicles with 99% accuracy. It includes strobes, a speaker unit, an intelligent 2-way audio relay, a network video recorder, and a wireless access point.
When suspicious activity is detected, the system immediately plays audio warnings and activates strobe lights to deter criminals. If the threat continues, the event is escalated to Interface’s UL-Listed, TMA Five Diamond Certified iSOC, where trained specialists review and intervene in real time.

Virtual Perimeter Guard Beats Guards and Mobile Security Trailers
Physical guards and mobile trailer units come with high costs, coverage limitations, and operational risks. Virtual Perimeter Guard delivers smarter, more consistent protection without the downsides.
- Always Active: Virtual Perimeter Guard never takes breaks, gets distracted, or misses an alert. It combines AI detection with live monitoring for immediate response to real threats.
- Mobile Trailers Lack Live Monitoring: Most mobile trailer units are just camera towers with flashing lights. They are not always monitored in real time and cannot intervene during a crime.
- Saves Parking Space: Virtual Perimeter Guard units are compact and can be mounted on walls or poles, unlike trailers that occupy high-traffic parking spots.
- Fewer Incidents Over Time:Customers often see a reduction in incidents after deploying Virtual Perimeter Guard, thanks to visible deterrents and fast intervention.
- Fast Setup: Virtual Perimeter Guard is quick to install and can be operational quickly, without waiting for trailer drop-offs or security staffing.
