‘Event’ monitored as it happens
Verifier controllers monitor an “event” as it happens – rather than laboriously watching streaming video. The Verifier model allows for the most efficient use of a controller’s time and more importantly, prevents boredom associated with watching streaming video. With streaming video, after only 22 minutes of monitoring, a controller can miss up to 95% of events – a key determinant of why the event monitoring route was chosen.
Instant controller response 24/7
The current method of connecting to clients on-site CCTV cameras is via ADSL, 3G and wireless networking. On the triggered event being received by the Verifier control room, a dedicated controller responds and manages the occurrence according to a strict, pre-determined protocol.
Cost effective tailor made solution
Verifier made a strategic decision not to install CCTV systems; instead Verifier works with specialist installers. This allows clients to consider various different CCTV products and select those most suited to meet their specific needs and budgets.
Total transparency
Being independent from installers, suppliers and armed response/guarding companies, Verifier reports only to the client – allowing a totally transparent relationship and effective reporting – no cover ups and no collusion. This enables Verifier to offer clients unbiased advice, further enhancing their security planning.
Reduction in guarding costs
The choice of CCTV monitoring will lead to a reduction in guarding, frequently resulting in significant savings for clients. The intimidation, threats and collusion opportunities that pervade the guarding industry are significantly reduced.
Security services include
- event monitoring e.g. openings/closings/cash –in-transit
- 24/7 panic monitoring (hijack/hostage/robbery etc)
- “lock-down”
- perimeter monitoring
Apart from notifying the predetermined response team (and depending on the site configuration) Verifier controllers can remotely, verbally challenge intruders, open/close gates, switch on lights or deploy smoke bombs/cloaks or pepper spray – all aimed at preventing an escalation of incidents.
Verifier can also receive a clients alarm as a secondary signal
