Securing Retail

Reducing the time to acquire and interpret information, data analytic technology advances the intelligence of not only the security system, but also the building applications. Those systems use their own communication protocols, and Integriti acts as a data aggregator to normalize that data. By communicating with other systems, the pattern recognition in the analytics can predict how and when events may occur and trigger efficient use of other resources. If the analytic recognizes trends of attendance, it can help control building lighting resources. In the past, intrusion and access control systems were ignored as being an expense, but now they can help create the intelligent building.

Allowing the approved persons to be in the places that they need to complete their job is critical. But even more critical is preventing unapproved persons from accessing secure areas. This protects the people and assets of the organization and can also reduce other costs such as insurance. Integriti performs these functions and offers many additional links to other building and property applications.

Notifying the correct authority of unwanted persons in an area or on a property in an appropriate timeframe helps prevent loss. Escalation of specific events to the correct responder allows them to make better decisions for resolving the issue. Providing up to 14 levels of response to various alarm scenarios. The events that occur when an intruder attempts to gain access to a controlled area may need to be handled in unique ways. By providing those standard operating procedures for each type of event, responders can mitigate risks and liability.

During an emergency event, people want to notify someone to come assist them in solving a problem. To get the message to a responding authority, duress alarms can trigger a response from the appropriate team. These alarms may be a push button underneath the desk of a receptionist, or they can be a button on an emergency telephone in the middle of the university campus. Regardless of the location of the button, these systems trigger immediate notification of an event to first responders to assist the person in need. Inner Range’s Enterprise Platform allows the control of alarms such that if it is not responded to in a determined time period, it can be escalated to a higher authority.

Access to an area is controlled by what you have (card or other physical identification), what you know (code) and who you are (biometric identifier). Integration with a video surveillance system allows the analytics to be integrated with the access control application to provide the Who You Are component of access control. This identification of a person by a camera, as well as the credential that the person holds or knows, can assist in assuring that the correct people are in the proper area. Integriti can even use just the triggered response of the camera analytic as the credential to allow a person entrance to a building or area.

Utilising the Enterprise Integriti platform, system operators are able to visually verify alarm events in real-time, using video feeds from an interconnected Video Surveillance platform. Security Personnel are able to view, control and customize Video layouts all within one centrally managed system, while monitoring other access control or alarm events within the same graphical interface.

Making sure that the correct company is on your property and performing the necessary responsibilities proves daunting with the amount of work expectations that exist. Being able to verify that not only did the correct person arrive on property, but also that they spent the time that was charged, becomes a logistical challenge. Integriti can provide reports identifying when the contractor came to and left your facility as well as any areas they accessed. This allows the verification of invoices as well as job completion.

Real-Time Location Systems are commonly deployed in high security situations, and allow Security Operators to maintain accurate status and location of Security Personnel in real-time. The Enterprise Platform Integriti, allows for status updates and location monitoring via the same graphical interface as every other aspect of the system (including integrated Video Surveillance, Intercoms, etc.). While increasing the security and safety of staff, this integration improves the situational awareness of Security Personnel in high-security situations.

Knowing information immediately has become the expectation of society. With a smart phone, apps have become the new normal. In access control and intrusion systems, various alarms and events need to be conveyed to the correct responder as quickly as possible. Push notification of the events at a customer site assists them with management of the situation, whether it be urgent or just informational.
