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.
