The Role of Smart Technology in Business Security

If you own a business, you likely understand how important property security is, especially if you are storing valuables on the property. However, what you may not fully understand is how capable criminals are at targeting weak points.

Even if you have a security camera and security staff, there can be areas of the premise that are not guarded at certain times. While some robberies happen because of an easy opportunity, a large number of robbers take time to scope out and assess a property for potential opportunities.

So how can businesses adequately protect themself from theft and other crimes? By incorporating the latest smart security technology onto your premise.

What Smart Security Systems Do I Need?

Every property is different, and there is no one size fits all solution for business security. With that said, there are a few smart technology features that can greatly improve security throughout the property. These security systems include the following:

Access Control

Access control is being incorporated more and more in buildings across Canada because of its incredible security benefits. Access control can come in various forms, including keys, key cards, or retina scanners.

The objective of an access control system is to prevent unauthorized access to essential or valuable areas of the business. These rooms are often fortified, and there are no other entry points other than the access pad.

Remote Lockdown

While preventing any entry is always ideal, it is not always possible. In some cases, a criminal may have someone working on the inside or have broken in through physical force. This often happens at night when the property is empty.

In these cases, a remote lockdown system can effectively minimize the damage caused and prevent the criminal from escaping.
