Q. What is CCTV?

A.  CCTV, is the short form for Closed Circuit Television, is a Television system that sends
a signal to one or more monitors rather than broadcasting over a public network,
hence "closed circuit." A standard CCTV system normally includes a CCTV camera for
capturing video, transmitters and receivers (to transfer the video from the source to
where it is recorded), a recording system (for video playback), and a monitor (for
video monitoring).

Q. How can I save on security personnel by opting for CCTV Monitoring
service?

A.  You get a considerable amount of cost savings by being able to monitor multiple sites
from one location. With IP CCTV, you can monitor up to 32 cameras on two screens
with a single camera at a time, and respond to events in real-time without having to
perform multiple patrols.

Q. Is there any regulatory implication regarding an employer installing a
CCTV system in the office for employee monitoring and data retention?

A.  Yes CCTV use in UK is covered by the Data Protection Act if it is used to gather
information about an individual it is monitored remotely or is given to people other
than law enforcement authorities. If CCTV use falls under the ambit of the DPA, then
the employer would need at least signage, and a policy for the retention of data.
However, these restrictions do not come in the way of us providing CCTV Monitoring
service to our clients.

Q. How efficient and effective are your motion detection facilities which allow      the operative to go on alert?

A.  The limits of CCTV are extended according to increasing needs. Originally installed to
thwart burglary, assault, and car theft, in practice most camera systems have been
used to combat anti-social and disorderly behavior such as littering, urinating in
public, eve teasing, traffic violations, obstruction, drunkenness, and evading meters
in town parking slots. The clarity of the pictures is often excellent, with many systems
being able to recognize a cigarette packet at a hundred meters. The systems can
work in pitch-blackness, bringing images up to daylight level.

Q. Is the scope of your CCTV Monitoring solutions limited to clients in UK      only?

A.  No our service is available to global clients. However, we focus in the UK because
Britain is clearly the lead nation in implementing CCTV.

Q. Can you mention a few benefits of availing CCTV Monitoring service from
you?

A.  You are assured of full proof service including the following monitor multiple sites
from one location, almost no limitations on where you can place cameras, remote
accessibility, fantastic picture quality, retrieve information immediately, and playback
of recorded information.
